That's right, I forgot about that! I think it is all in the marketing, Kevin (Cobb) doesn't work two jobs and can spend time marketing for them in our area. KevinD, when are you gonna quit your day job?! (I know the answer...)

The only EvoD car out at AX is Jeremy's and soon Justin's, you need to get the name out there man!

BTW, where the hell did Delmon Young come from? I thought he sucked? thus why the local sports station KFAN always called him "dumb and young" Say that fast once.

two things:

first, we used to have a meet on saturdays but we have been insanely busy so it hasn't happened in about a year. good news is lauren is planning a potluck picnic like we did a couple years back. we want to have it in 2-3 weeks before it gets to cold. it is being planning (and bad weather backup will be at the shop of course


second, if anyone would be willing to come in a reformat the harddrives on three of our computers, reinstall windows and a few of the programs we use, i will pay you, give you free installs or apply it to parts if you like. these things are so insanely bad i can't even process credit cards without problems anymore. one is a desktop, one is a standard laptop and one is a netbook.

Also, for pointless NTEC chat, I'd like to share that you should NEVER do anything aggressive in your cars with 440 tread wear tires. Very bad idea. lol

COMPUTER DUDES HELP ME!!!

My mac book is down to like 1.5g left. I had to take off my windows partition to free that little bit of space up. What do I do now. Can I get a bigger hard drive and ghost this one over and keep everything or what??

Or can I move all of my pictures over out of iphoto to free up some space?

Just get an external hard drive to move everything to. They're usually $100 or less (I think).

You have a couple options. You can buy an external hd and move things over or you can buy a new hard drive and an external hard drive use tim machine to backup the entire drive to the external. Install the new drive and do a recovery with time machine software it will move everything back.
