'd

Suffix used for abbreviations that lamers tend to stick onto full words for absolutely no reason.

Don't use "'d" incorrectly. It'll only make you look like a n00b.

Windows ME

Windows Mass Error. Windows ME is an OS directed towards consumers that was released in 2000. It looks like Windows 2000 on the outside, but on the inside it's full of more bugs than a beehive.

Windows ME user: lol windos me iz teh ro><or
Windows XP user: No it isn't.
Windows ME user: u r rong
Windows XP user: Here, lemme install Windows XP for you.
Windows ME user (now a Windows XP user): Wow, this is a lot better than Windows ME! Now I feel dumb for not upgrading.

Internet Explorer

A browser that while popular, has many security holes. It also has poor support of today's standards, and has a dangerous feature called ActiveX that can be used to install programs harmful to computers.

Still using Internet Explorer? I suggest switching to a Mozilla-based browser, Opera, or another alternate browser.

Opera

A browser superior to Internet Explorer and its creators, who favor proprietary "HTML" over the W3C's standards.

Opera is better than Internet Explorer. Actually, snail mail is, too.

BMP

An image file format supported by many programs, including Microsoft Paint. BMP (which comes from the word "bitmap"), is intended for offline use, since BMPs tend to be large in size.

BMPs are not for the web!

Thunderbird

Mozilla's standalone e-mail client. It has excellent spam blocking, unlike Micro$hit Outhouse Express. It is available for Windows, Mac OS X, and Linux.

Thunderbird blows Outlook Express out of the water, or should I say the Internet.
