• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

What are your thoughts?

I guess I never had that issue with anybody. There have been some places that put a limit and ask you to make a small payment for the service but it was reasonable to help manage their bandwith, no issue there. The only mob that have caused me grief are ^%$#@ something 1, diabolical e-commerce, could not do a rebuild cause I could not do a download, but that is another story, so never went back.

I am curious , Why would would you want to keep downloading it in the first place?, I have only done it once or twice for a few things but otherwise I always keep copies to use again should there be a problem requiring a rebuild for some reason, very rare.

[As for things French with the Chevron, same as things French with the Lion, nothing but effing trouble and money. The last one, she who must be obeyed's idea nearly sent us broke, spent more time in the garage than on the road, two engines, one gearbox, one fuel tank, major electrical issues etc etc. Might be all right in the streets of gay Paris but in outback or Country OZ, fell apart rapidly, crazy designs, no quality control, pretty but useless! Give me Korean or Japanese any day, they work and they keep working]
 
French with the lion things were the only make other than three-pointed star which could stand up to Nigerian roads (cough) when I was a nipper, but that was more than a fortnight ago.
 
similar issue

Not exactly an install issue, since the original installation and product works as specified, however:

Airplane developer "C" provides updates to airplane fleet.
Customer "D" downloads from on-line vendor "F" what he thinks is the update, except that it's not, and notifies developer hoping for an update.
Airplane developer "C" will not provide customer with update, claims proper update suppled to vendor "F", and it's their problem.
On-line vendor "F" claims properly updated product available, any problems must be solved by airplane developer "C".

Everyone involved pays a hidden price, especially the customer who would rather keep buying and flying.

Customer "D" votes no to both, with his open wallet flapping in the tail-wind created by petty argument.

You just reminded me of the venerable 203 series from eons past!
Great cars for 'Outback Dwellers', if you lived out the back of Bourke all the Pugs needed was fuel, oil and water, they never rusted because it only rained once each year.
