Sidewinder Posted August 23, 2015 Share Posted August 23, 2015 (I needed to be home most of Tuesday, because we were being moved into a hotel so the contractor can come replace my hardwood flooring downstairs - unscheduled insurance-funded renovations due to burst A/C condensation pipes that went undetected due to the location of the pipe in the wall coupled with an open floor plan with no logical breaking point...) Which, is what I said basically. I'm so confused. You heard me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cv91915 Posted August 23, 2015 Author Share Posted August 23, 2015 Today I hauled out the PC that I ditched after "upgrading" to Windows 8 a little over two years ago. A few weeks later I bought a Mac. Five hours after turning the PC on, Windows Update is still doing its thing. It's been 12 hours. Still going.

I'd just reset and try again and if that doesn't work, do a free upgrade to Win 10 from scratch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As the owner of an Asstek you really have no standing to tell someone else their car is ugly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bad Doctor Frost Posted August 23, 2015 Share Posted August 23, 2015 Actually, if if weren't for the styling, the Aztek would have been known as a great crossover. So many usable features. And, really, there are uglier cars on the road. Just look at any Nissan today. The Cube? Juke? Or some of the Fiats. Or the Honda Element. Yeah...the Aztek isn't that bad compared to any of them.
