[Sept 24, 2006] I haven't formatted my current rig since the day I bought and set it up, which was on September 24th last year. I think that's a pretty amazing statistic. I remember when I was on Windows 98....I actually had to format it every 6 to 8 months, just to keep things in order. Windows XP is really a lot more stable (I have never gotten a blue screen on XP). With careful housekeeping, I don't think it requires formatting often. There are probably some orphaned files lying around on my hard disk (left behind after uninstalling software I didn't want to keep), but that's quite minimal. Hopefully, I won't need to format it anytime in the near future. When I was on Windows 98, I got so familiar with the process that I could finish the entire process in about 5 hours (formatting, reinstalling the OS, drivers and programs I need). On Windows XP, it would take me roughly 2 days to get everything done. But that's because I use more programs now and I'm really quite lazy and couldn't sit still for hours installing programs on my rig. ^^^ by Locksley @ 10:39 AM.

Broken for now. :( If anyone knows of a good way to display tweets without using Twitter's awful looking widgets, please let me know. Preferably something that allows me to retrieve my tweets in plain-text format.
