Wink Is it or is it not?
Hi, Just looking at the topics, Now under Hardware is it suppose to be Plug-n-Pray or is it supposed to be Plug-n-Play?

Just a General Question as it is has Pray.. I could be wrong.

Yeah, that was put there as a joke... particularly back in day when it wasn't nearly as reliable as it is now (in my opinion). I guess it might be time to change that. We'll see how others feel.

Plug and play is a computer feature (in the bios) that allows the addition of a new device, normally a peripheral, without requiring reconfiguration or manual installation of device drivers.

But I think it may be time for the change hehe.

I concur, it is.

If everyone wants to keep it the way it is, that`s fine by me.

Well in my opinion, I think all the forums need new descriptions
A lot of them are old and outdated.
