Ideally they say DQS should run on XP.  Ideally MQ should pay me enough so I could afford to replace my computer.  Maybe when Frank MQ gets around to raising statuatory employees line count after 5-6 years service to MQ, I can afford XP.

I am interested to know if anyone is running two platforms with a different version of Word on one computer.

I am running eScription's ES with Word 2003 and want to run ExText but their version of Word is 2000.  Has anyone done this or doing it now.  If so, have you run into any problems. 

I can't seem to get a straightforward answer from the Techs at either company.    I can't just load ExText and jeopardize it interfering with eScription. 

I am interested to hear any and all comments.  Thank you so much in advance for any help!

Actually there seems to be tons of work on the account I am on, but I just can't get my line count up.  I know I am doing quality work, just not quantity, and would rather quit than be fired!  It seems like for the first hour everything is great then every report I get is a different dictator.  Just can't get the hang of their Ex-Text system fast enough either.  At my other job, which is online based through FTP, I did about 300 lines/hour during my shift last night, so I am really not THAT slow :) 

I did e-mail my resignation this morning but still have not heard back...At this point, I don't even want to finish in 2 weeks, Just want to be done wasting everyone's time. 

problems with Unlimited LD, regular phone service.  VOIP is Voice Over Internet Protocol.  Instead of having phone lines, you get a box from AT&T Broadband that allows you to make calls using your phone connected to the Internet.  This is a completely different part of AT&T; it's not a long distance phone plan.  Someone else mentioned Vonage, which is also VOIP.  It cut my business phone bill by about 60%.  You can use it with a C-phone, too. Here is the link to AT&T CallVantage.  Hope this helps...

Kind of hard to know without more information.  What antispyware and antivirus programs are you running first off?  Have you defragmented your computer?  Have you run your updates?  That is why it is good to do the things it states in that tutorial, and yes, that is not the end-all site, of course.  Like I said, others may have better ideas and sites, programs, etc.  Sometimes, the companies we work with have us download software that our operating systems will not sustain well and make them unstable.  Just a thought.  Hope this helps.  Let me know.  Talk to guys tomorrow. 

will make your computer run slow.  I tried One Care, didn't like it.  Also, I don't run PC Tools Spyware Doctor, just put it on when I'm finished for the day to scan computer at night.  The One Care combined with Spyware Doctor are the culprits.  Try turning them off and see what happens.  Good luck.

knockoff or from the store is not a necessity in anybody's book and

is a slap in the face of the taxpayer who underwrote the $2000.

Believe me, that $2000 is only the beginning.  I do feel for these people but many of them are only used to hand outs and they will be getting them left and right.  Lets see how many of  them stand in line for a job.  I heard that WalMart will hire any evacuee, no matter what.  I wish they would report how many have been hired thus far.   I was watching Fox news the other day and one of the  guys they were talking to said something along the lines of "They aint helping us at all, its like they shipped us all on slave boats again"  He then said the F word, which Fox didn't see coming because you could hear it plain as day.  Now that is the state of mind of many of these people. Give me, give me.  The welfare system has tought many that the government will take care of them, they do not have to take care of themselves.  Now I am not talking about all the evacuees just the ones that are not used to fending for themselves.  

Okay, said what I had to say.  This just all gets to me.

Now I know a lot depends on how many characters per line but putting that aside:  How do you get in a lot of lines every day?

Do you sit and work nonstop?  Do you type at a leisurely pace or bang your keyboard as fast as you can?  Do you use an expander?  A word completion software like Smartype?  Are you able to keep up with everything else - house, kids, DH?  Do you just keep on typing till you get all the lines you want?  Do you set a goal for yourself each day, or just type every chance you get and what you end up with is okay with you?

Just wondering cause I know even though I've been an MT many years (23) I am sort of spoiled.  Had many years where I had easy money accounts and made money not really even trying and not working very hard.  Well now I have canned my own accounts and working for someone else at a respectable line rate - but I find myself wanting to type 1000 lines a day and stop and I need to make more money than that.  I guess I just got lazy! 

So if you don't mind, share your tips!
