Has anyone gotten money back from Paypal from bum ebay sellers?

I've had the full amount reimbursed in a day after filling out the complaint form. But I also called my credit card company that day as well, so I'm sure that helped some.

Economics: Can opportunity cost be zero?

It can seem that there is no opportunity costs, as you aren't losing anything, only increasing production. But the opportunity cost would be how you choose to increase the production. Using your example, if you made 3 corns(tons, bushels, anything) and 3 steel(slaps, tons), and were able to...

Economics: Can opportunity cost be zero?

In a sense, your friend is right. The PPF curve is only used to demonstrate 2 products(or categories). If you are on the curve, the only way to move to another point on the curve is to give up output from one product to allow more output of the other. The curve itself shows how the available...

Computer GURU's ONLY! (Backup question)

From what I know, programs themselves can't be backed up, mainly because most of the time, the files are placed in multiple places(Windows directory, Program Files directory, etc.) There are programs that make an image of your hard drive, but that kind of defeats the purpose if you're going to...

How do you quickly destroy your own hard drive, or at least erase all data (not virus)

I've never tried format c: /q or that NSA grade sector, but for speed so I don't know how fast they are, but I'd say deleting the partitions on fdisk should do it.

Why do I have to take Spanish 2????

I took 4 years of spanish and probably only remember enough for simple phrases(proabaly only lines from Spanish 1). I'm with Richie, I wanted to take Japanese but my school didn't offer it :( It was Spanish or French, and in my area, Spanish will probably be of much more use.

where are some good sites to take sample tests for A+ and MCSE??

For A+, just visit CompTIA's site for the objectives. I should've done that, probably would've scored a lot more. But with the A+, if you have any computer knowledge, you can pass fine. MCSE, I'm not sure about, I haven't checked into it, although burnedouts suggestion look promoising.

I need to pick up a new jacket....from where now is the question.

i also agree with northface. Most of their things are meant for out doors(camping, skiing, etc) but they also do carry some light but warm jackets. I would just recommend something simple like a fleece jacket, or just something you like with a warm lining.

Lets hear it - what was your first PC?

Macintosh Plus 1MB RAM, no internal hard drive, 3.5 floppy. Ahh, and to think it cost us 2500$(i think). Anyways I always wondered if that that thing was made to be portable, it had a built-in screen, and had a handle on top.
