    I'm seeing the delay with tabs now. Laptop has a screwed up screen so I've been using an external monitor. I hooked up an extra one last night and moved some things over there. I put the forum in a tab by itself on one monitor and on the other one I have a page with 3 tabs, dashboard, OW and the forum. When I watch both forum pages there is a 3-4 second delay on the tabbed page vs the stand alone page. No wonder when I click a job or OW everything is mostly gone already.

    And they're already gone. And I didn't realize the short timer, so mine expired when I looked away for a bit.

    Dammit to hell.. days like this make me wonder why I'm even bother trying.

    Well, now there are no more hits available, so I guess I'll never know. However, it diidn't give specifics before. How do contact Amazon directly to ask why my qual of "1" doesn't "stick"?

    I'm convinced they forgot to teach people how to signal in Memphis.

    I think I die here.

    If you try to accept or view it will just tell you you're not qualed. If you see it on the search page you can click the title of the hit and it will show you the hit details with the quals and what your value is. I strongly suspect it's a different qual that's stopping you.

    Agreed. My parents actually live there, so I know what it's like.

    Just went through this yesterday. I have both a HDMI and a VGA output on my laptop. All I did was hook a monitor up to each of them and they worked just fine. I'm running Linux though. I disabled the built in screen since it's screwed up, broken hinge and can't open all the way without breaking.

    If you have already maxed out your video connections on your laptop your options are either to buy a new laptop (if it was a desktop you could just get a new GPU) or buy one of those overpriced and buggy USB adaptors.
