Yeah, but it's size... 
Mine's only 800MB...
¦M¦

Ah well...
If only I could actually take my HD apart, I could send you a couple of GB...

Ming Mang Posted Dec 30, 2000
Ahhh... dammit... I need that extra few 100MBs... 
And sorry I didn't go over last night - the computer crashed big time and the modem decided it wasn't going to work after that... grrrrrrr...
¦M¦

Chris Tonks Posted Dec 30, 2000
Oh, I'm sorry about that...
I'll be offline in a bit anyway - going to watch Taggart..

Ming Mang Posted Dec 30, 2000
Oh well... but I'm trying to do the ACE job right now anyway, and it always takes a while.

*Again, on until 10pm...*
You're an ACE? You should have that in your username...

Ming Mang Posted Dec 31, 2000
*again, missed, but this time only by an hour...*
No, there is nothing that will make me change my name. We don't HAVE to put it in our name, so I haven't.

Hehe...alright then, if there's no convinicing you...
Thought about becomming an ACE myself once, but I don't have much time to start new regular conversations (i.e. ones where newbies ask me loads of questions...)...

Ming Mang Posted Jan 1, 2001
No, absolutely no convincing me!
Actaully, they hardly ever do talk back... most of them hardly ever come back. You only get a few who ask questions, and I've never yet had an ongoing conversation with one. Even while I used to try and out-ACE the ACEs a few months ago...
¦M¦

I was first greeted by an out-ACE-er...
Ddombrow or something similar...?
Jew Jew Bees and chocolate penguins
Ming Mang Posted Jan 2, 2001
Never heard of them... I've always been Ming. But there are quite a few out-ACE-ers about. And what I don't understand is that they always get there first, and whenever I tried to out-ACE the ACEs I always failed...
¦M¦
Jew Jew Bees and chocolate penguins
Ming Mang Posted Jan 2, 2001
Yeah... and annoying in that I wanted to out-ACE them...
I'm there already, although it did take a while, but mainly cos I was using Opera at the time and it crashed... now I'm using IE.
¦M¦

Chris Tonks Posted Jan 2, 2001
Ah, excellent!
Yeah, hang on, I'm trying to get there, but it's taking a while...
Jew Jew Bees and chocolate penguins
Ming Mang Posted Jan 2, 2001
You're happy cos I'm using IE?
See you there then.
¦M¦
Jew Jew Bees and chocolate penguins
Chris Tonks Posted Jan 2, 2001
Oh yes, I'm always happier if people use IE rather than NS...
Oh drat this thing! It's refusing to find the Java on the ICQ page!
Jew Jew Bees and chocolate penguins
Ming Mang Posted Jan 2, 2001
Oh, OK. And if they use IE instead of Opera as well then?
Really? Wierd. 
That is just odd...
¦M¦
Jew Jew Bees and chocolate penguins
Chris Tonks Posted Jan 2, 2001
I'm afraid I've had to give up for now...I've even tried loading the seperate Java files, and failed...
Typical! The one time in a while we're both online at the same time, and the chat room won't work! Grrr...
Jew Jew Bees and chocolate penguins
Ming Mang Posted Jan 2, 2001
Blimey! That's really odd... and incredibly annoying... and totally typical. Murphy's law.
Well, I'll stay there till I go offline, just in case you manage later...
¦M¦
Jew Jew Bees and chocolate penguins
Chris Tonks Posted Jan 2, 2001
Ah well, I've got to go offline round about now anyway...
I'll try again tomorrow...
Thanks for waiting around...
