never mind
I solved the Beechjet 400 download problem on my own. Turns out it must be
something with my mousedriver. If a breeze so much as swipes it, it will kill the download from eaglesoft. Last night I surfed and downloaded the jet at 2am when there was likely to be low U.S. traffic. Took two hrs and I didnt go anywhere near the computer. Anyway as a thirty something I am now priviledged to give one of those "back in the day" speeches. Let's just say that this board has turned into a freeway situation where you have a flat and no one stops to help these days. My post was on three days. Too bad. I guess thats why I dont come thru here as much anymore. |

Maybe it's because none of us had answers, Jason. We don't know
everything G and rather than clutter the group with useless traffic we say nothing. It also depends on how much information you give - I didn't see the first post so I don't know what you gave. You do have to admit that a mouse interfering with a download is very unusual situation. Maybe there is something else wrong with you machine.

I guess thats why I dont come thru here as much anymore. Good riddance, with an attitude like that. Your original post didn't say where you were trying to download the file from, it didn't say how you were trying to unzip the file, nor did it mention whether the file really was zero length, or if you managed to download as much data as you expected. For that matter, nowhere in your original post did you actually even ASK for help! For all anyone could tell, you were just venting. Then, in the end, your trouble turned out to be something that probably NO ONE here would have been able to figure out. And you get snotty because no one wasted their time trying to help someone who didn't bother to describe the problem with any detail, nor even say exactly what they want? Maybe when you're forty-something, your self-assignment of privilege will include a helping of humility. Pete |

Let's just say that this board has turned into a freeway situation where you have a flat and no one stops to help these days. My post was on three days. Too bad. I guess thats why I dont come thru here as much anymore. You might want to consider a couple of reasonable reasons why you didn't get a response. Things like slow propagation (this is usenet you know, it *isn't* a "board"), no propagation (perhaps your post didn't get very far around the world's news servers), being more or less "holiday season" in the Northern Hemisphere can have an impact too. And, on top of that, perhaps nobody had a useful suggestion. As a fellow thirty-something I can say that "back in my day" people used to appreciate that usenet (and BBS systems too) were often a slow medium and that lack of help didn't mean that nobody wanted to help. But, just perhaps, it's important to you that you think it's the "nobody helped with a flat" thing? -- Dave Pearson http://www.davep.org/ |

Maybe when you are 50 something like myself you will better appreciate the fine folks here. I saw your post and didn't have a clue as to what your problem was so didn't answer. It happens.

What's going on? What's happened? Have I missed something? Oh dear! |
