everything now is at normal size but now the screen is too wide. Like now i can't even see the start menu cuz its out or the backward function on the page what do i do now?

There should be a button or buttons on the monitor itself.  It might say "menu" or if there's like three of them there's one plain one, one with a minus sign and one with a plus sign.   Press the plain one and you should get a menu listing.  Use the plus or minus buttons to scroll and then the plain one to select.  Try the OSD (On Screen Display) Setting one.  Or the Positioning one.

it may be superior, but its not catered for like microsoft machines.

microsoft machines are the easiest to deal with since everythings built/programmed for them pretty much.

How so? It's set up to go right outta the box, and plus, the apple support is best support for anythign I've ever seen out there. They know what the problem is no matter how you explain it and help you to correct it in like 10 minutes tops.

     Now let me just get this straight.  You needed help with your PC screen and indeed recieved some from a friendly poster in Gypsy Soul.  Where did we stray into wiping asses.  Now is the wiping done with the actual PC or the mouse/keyboard because either way it's not very hygenic and what would be the difference between a Mac or say a Dell when used to wipe your ass?  Is one better than the other in regards to wiping ones ass?
     It's the little things that keep me amused.

I find these types of comments to be hilarious. I've been using PC's my whole life and I can count the number of times on one hand that I've had a major problem. Sure, if it's a cheap machine then it's going to suck, but if you actually buy a quality computer then you shouldn't have any problem no matter if it's a PC or a Mac.

[kaasupoltin]

Thank god you got a PC so you don't have to ask for any help

[JMack]

I'll admit to owning 1 Mac (older) and several (6) Dells. ?I kind of like the P.C. myself. ?I never have a customer service problems either after 1 real bad one. ?Since that 1 bad customer service call where the tech started having me format my PC w/o back up, which I caught before I pressed enter, I was given a direct line and also I think I've spent enough on Dell's to have a dedicated number and I speak to only 2 people. ?I haven't had a problem in awhile though. ?Knock on wood. ?Either way if you like PC's use them, if you like MACs use them. ?They get you to pretty much the same place.
Oh yeah I had a IBM that was real expensive and the service did suck.  My wife used it as a word processor for 12 years until last year.  That was a waste.

I have 3 Lenovo systems (they bought the IBM computer manufacturing division a few years ago I believe) 2 desktops and a laptop and they are without a doubt the best systems I've ever used. My one desktop is used for 3d animation and shit and I have no problems at all. I've also dropped my laptop about a million times and that thing still won't die, definitely one of the best brands I've ever come across.
