      Trying to figure out just why he's asking this...He says he wants to be convenient...by spending more time and effort trying to find one that will install without the need to install drivers...and therefore wasting more time than he'd ever save, and being less convenient and efficient...

      Or is that just me..?

      Seriously, Is it just me, or is this guy chatting utter bollocks (excuse the language)?

      His requirement is convenience. Plugging in a USB or installing drivers by clicking install isn't convenient enough.

      yet wasting 25+ mins chatting crap on a forum, and spending far more time googling the issue/searching for a card that will enable that (total time 1 hour+) is totally more convenient than just doing it the easy way, taking 2-3 more minutes than a 100% foolproof plug and play one...?

      Plus how is installing it the easy was not convenient..? Convenience is about doing it the easiest way possible...

      Urgh, I'm off to punch a user.

        I could drive to WalMart, buy one, come back, and plug it in, in the time it's taken him to get this far.

          Exactly! Hell, I could have taken a course, bought the parts, received them and MADE one in the time it's taken him to argue that he's the IT God...

                  I am trying to decide what made me want to switch to Firefox. The web browser stutters so bad, I can get to be a good paragraph a head of the text boxes here and on some other sites before the text even starts to display.

                  Everything seems to have a serious delay of a second or two or three when clicking or scrolling...

                  Just ranting right now... today I'm going to see if I can come up with a good solution.

                    I think your computer is broken... I don't have that problem.
                    How much RAM do you have? FF and Chrome both suffer from to much RAM requirements.

                          Got plenty of RAM. 20GB of RAM, and only 60% of it is being used, so no problems there. I disabled hardware acceleration, so we'll see if that helps or not.

                                  Turns out it is like an MS product... Gotta restart it every now and again. I checked the ram usage, and for 6 tabs over 2 windows, it was chewing up almost 2GB of ram. Shut it down and checked it again... same 6 tabs, only 500 megs of ram... much better.

                                      Every web browser I've tried eats ram like crazy. Try to tone down those auto-play video advertisements and the plugin takes even more memory. It's just terrible anymore.

                                            I am trying to decide what made me want to switch to Firefox. The web browser stutters so bad, I can get to be a good paragraph a head of the text boxes here and on some other sites before the text even starts to display.

                                            Everything seems to have a serious delay of a second or two or three when clicking or scrolling...

                                            Just ranting right now... today I'm going to see if I can come up with a good solution.

                                            I think your computer is broken... I don't have that problem.
                                            How much RAM do you have? FF and Chrome both suffer from to much RAM requirements.

                                            Turns out it is like an MS product... Gotta restart it every now and again. I checked the ram usage, and for 6 tabs over 2 windows, it was chewing up almost 2GB of ram. Shut it down and checked it again... same 6 tabs, only 500 megs of ram... much better.

                                            Memory leaks? 😞

                                            Every web browser I've tried eats ram like crazy. Try to tone down those auto-play video advertisements and the plugin takes even more memory. It's just terrible anymore.

                                            Yeah I tried to explain this to my users the other day and they refused to believe that every browser out there has issues like this. It's tough to put it in a way they can understand 😞
