Vista - Can't open my Vista DVD case?!

Just bought Vista and have spent the last 20 minutes trying to open the DVD
box!!! What's the secret? Or am I just dumb or something?

If you see the small red tab on top of the box. Then just hold the box and
pull that red tab.

Hammer and chisel? Chainsaw? Hot knife. Give it to your local shop lifter
for assistance?

In the past I have received a very nasty gash on my wrist that needed 12
stitches because of the way a product was packaged. It was a DVD video. I
should have used the chainsaw.

Cute nick you have, 'Mike.' It takes me back a long, long time. :>

If you have any young children at home, ask them to open it ;-)

1982?

I was 14 at the time, and to a dumb teenager,
"Porky's" was the funniest thing ever.

And some Windoze fanboys around here say that Linux is hard to install. :-)

That name -- Mike Hunt -- predates '"Porky's" from 1982 by many years,
Michael.

My friends and I were using it back in the 50's. And I bet it was around a
lot longer than that. :>

"Porky's" was probably based on you and your friends. ;-)
It was about some silly high school kids back in the 50s.

Take care,

Michael
