I recently picked up a I Pad to replace my old PC. It is perfect for this with one exception. I can not reply to any item on the forum. I can send PM's from it just find. Any ideas?

Don't buy Icrap. LOL I will ask my son, he is the I stuff guy. I don't touch anything with "I" in it's name so I am not sure. It may require you to go through the same program as an Iphone.

Michael,

I believe that's "iCrap". Other than that, I concur with your sentiments.

Though I, myself, don't use these devices, I have bought a few of them.

Perhaps iSpoil my children?

Yay.  I get to be the expert for once. MST has it right.  

Change to the umpire-empire mobile Theme (at the bottom of the site).

Safari on iOS  is incompatible with the desktop version.

This will allow you to post on U-E.

Thanks so much that works perfectly.

MST I used to feel the same way about craples. Then my kids got iBooks and I have become a convert. if you like troubleshooting computers, stick with PCs. IMHO If you simply want to use one without understanding how to program or build it buy a apple/Mac.

Actually, I really enjoy fixing computers. I have always disagreed with the Apple business model, plus their hardware has issues. In my job I hook presenters computers to my projectors. When we got our new projectors it says in the manual that if someone has a Mac they better have the cables to hook it up. To connect anything Mac to the rest of the world you have to buy special cables that you can only get from Apple.

Thanks for bringing it to my attention. I will look into it. I don't have any "Istuff" to test on, but I have browsed it from an I phone before without problem. But the "Istuff" is very popular. does anybody know if there is a Chrome or Firefox for the Ipad? At home I use those the most of the time although I do have Safari too but haven't ever used it. I will check it out.
