@Midnite1: IE will still support flash plugins

@JayDeEm: Nothing bad happens. You just lose the benefits of ready boost until you put it back.

@Condalmo: If you are looking for something similar for XP there is XPQuickFixPlus. [leelusoft.blogspot.com]

@jetRink: Your post is incorrect.

@k-napped: Maybe I can finally join in on this social crud with Buzz. My fb, twitter, tumblr, etc accounts sit unused forever. They've always been noise to me.

@reddingofish: There are several 30GB SSDs out there by OCZ, Patriot, etc.
