    Q: What is Thread Rating and How can I do it??

    Q. I think a particular thread is outstanding!
    OR
    I think a particular thread is a few cards short of a full deck.How can I rate this thread to alert others?

    A. You will notice at the bottom right of the page where the thread appears there is a pull down menu entitled Rate Thread.Your vote counts.Don't hesitate to use it ! There has been some discussion of eliminating this feature but its still here and lets give it a chance.I gave this thread 5 stars, if someone gives it one, it will come out to be an average thread....WHICH IT IS NOT ! After all, this is supposed to be fun.....are we having fun yet??

    Please note: I'm giving this thread 5 stars to see if we can get this rating thing off the ground :)
    Your vote counts also!!

    Hi Harry!

    I gave your thread 4 Stars just to mess with your math.

    You know, if folks started using the thread ratings it would make chosing the Newsletter Thread of the Month a little easier; sometimes it is tough for us to choose.

    Sean,

    It's like getting a sticker from the teacher placed on your homework assignment isn't it?

    Thanks for the Star Harry! :D

    I think Harry already got the "apple" that he wanted. He is so addicted to OptiBoard and the web that he might think you mean another computer.

    Harry, isn't your new laptop an Apple?

    Correctamundo!

    To be exact, Apple Titanium Powerbook G-4 (400) the 500 was just too much money.Included in the price however was 256 additional RAM and a Firewire CD-RW as a rebate.the UPS tracking # says that it will arrive this afternoon, then it will be off to the races!

    Jo,
    Harry gave me a quick demo of his new G4 just the other day. It's one of the most impressive notebooks that i've seen. Almost makes you want to think about switching your OS. It's exactly what a "techie" needs for doing their homework on the OB.BTW...........I dont think i'll have any extras to throw in with my apple,except for maybe a receipt and the bag it came in. :D

    OK, 5 stars it is...

    I just rated this thread (I hope I did it correctly) 5 stars from another Optiboarder who cares.

    Jackie L,

    You are just being nice with your 5 Star rating. Either that or you just enjoy us ganging up on Harry.
    :D
