I work in a non-IT environment. They don't know any better and I cannot download anything better b/c not administrator.

It was lurking in my programs. Honestly didn't know I had it until I looked. Think they installed it at one point so I could do payroll.

No chrome for sure.

I can't wait and I bet so many others as well. I thought about driving the S to work today, but it's just not pleasant sitting in traffic and bumper to bumper traffic so I took the minivan. Nice and comfy and automatic. I can't wait for self driving cars. I was thinking there will be so many benefits. When the kids are a little older and need to goto soccer practice I'll just send them off in the self driving car and don't have to drive them.

Some are very pricey. My biggest complaint is some/many aren't meant to go in enclosed light fixtures which blows, so I'll either use fluorescents for those fixtures or just leave them incandescent.. For the common sized ~60 watt bulbs, Philips makes a nice soft white bulb they sell at home depot for about $2.50 each. They "only" have a lifespan of about 10k hours (compared to 20k+ for most), but I figured in sparingly used light fixtures they're perfect and should last 10-15yrs when something better will probably exist anyway..

There don't seem to be good/reliable/affordable 100watt replacement led bulbs yet, most are just the ~60 watt variety..

I thought yesterday was Thursday, I was very disappointed last night when my wife told me I was incorrect.
