Stereotypical Discussions

The stifling conditions in the Dungeon, (yes, the dungeon, it really is a dungeon) i.e the lack of a functioning air conditioner, malfunctioning computers, sharing one phone with 12 eager journos; thesonditions are designed to separate the wheat from the chaffe. Typically these conditions are not supposed to be condusive to a good working environment, but if we survive this then we can make it anywhere.

Moving on; considering that there are so many different ethnicities and cultures within the group, there have been some understandable cultural misunderstandings. We tend to brand each other according to stereotypical perceptions. Sometimes this can be quite comical. Here are some of the gems: 1. Zulus are militant (go Shaka!!!) 2. Xhosas are considered to be conniving (Xhosanostra: think mafia) 3. Sotho women are cheeky (rebelling against everything) 4. Coloureds are all believed to be alcoholics and are considered animals in bed (the list goes on and on and on, but this does not apply for our coloureds).

All jokes aside stereotypes are generalisations, they are not necessarily true. Everyone is unique and has their own idiosyncrasies, it was fun though poking fun at each other. Lata.

How can i wipe windows xp from my laptop and reinstall windows Me -the laptops original software?
I be struck by recently bought a used laptop that is old. The person I had bought it from had installed windows xp on it, orderly though it at came with windows Me. I fall short of to oust the windows xp because it runs slows on the laptop because it takes up more memory than the windows Me would. Also I want to unseat windows xp because it is an proscribed copy. So when I tried to stir one's stumps updates on it, windows would not set up updates because the windows xp is not genuine.
