Ab-so-fraggin-lutely!

Post #66,371 by n3jja 12/3/02 7:58:34 AM Reply	Ab-so-fraggin-lutely! PM is a utility that everyone should have. ESPECIALLY if you are installing multiple operating systems. Nog that shit! I wouldn't be without it. I don't give a shit where their money goes..as long as it has the fitness of purpose for which I paid...which it does...many times over. You've actually PAID for yours? You're hanging out in the wrong places. (wink, wink; nudge, nudge)

I hang out in those places...but usually only get Microsoft products there ;-) stylewhack n3jja You were born...and so you're free...so Happy Birthday! _{Laurie Anderson} [link\|mailto:bepatient@aol.com\|BePatient]

Post #66,399 by bepatient 12/3/02 11:02:56 AM Reply	Simple And this happens to my multi-boot machines all the time... At some point the work involved on one of the partitions may become storage intensive...at which point PM allows you to reduce one partitions size and expand anothers...my laptop sees this activity on a regular basis...where I recently needed a dos only environment for a project (needed to reinstall and run a legacy reporting package) ...created the partition...installed dos and all necessary files...and did so in minutes. This was work related...not play...and the flexibility that PM allows and the time it saves is well worth every penny I have ever paid to Powerquest.

Post #66,404 by bepatient 12/3/02 11:17:34 AM Reply	Relax man... ...I've been a walking advertisement for PartitionMagic since the utility was released. Just trying to show you how useful that investment (or lack thereof in Jim's case) can be. You didn't see utility in paying for a one-off (you could ask Jim where >those< places are ;-) ) and I can absolutley respect that...but I find the thing so damned useful that I thought I could point out another use that may make acquiring a copy useful for you. There are less than half a dozen software applications that have ever made that "must have current at all times" list with me. PM is one of them.

Post #66,395 by n3jja 12/3/02 10:50:43 AM Reply	whackamole bepatient There are some things... ...for which I will pay. PM is one. I don't since they abandoned HPFS. Call it a mild form of protest, if you like. Virus updates for Norton AV is another. I pay for those because my "significant other" is heavily dependent on The Beast, but personally I don't use NAV (no current version that runs on OS/2, even if I were to run any AV on OS/2 in the first place (which I don't)). I'm not booted into Winders enough to justify running NAV and I certainly don't have anything on that partition that I can't restore in 2 hours or less (probably more like 1 hour).
