It's a Gigabyte Z87 motherboard for the record.
Maybe its a Macbook Issue. Havent actually tried it since I got the new MBP.

I think Apple just cripples Bootcamp, though I'm just guessing.

Also, this motherboard is running Thunderbolt 2.0, so not sure if that affects anything.

^Exactly. Didn't they just drop Windows 7 for the new Mac Pro bootcamp?

Definitely doing the bare minimum.

I'm really surprised that they dropped support for Windows 7.

Like it. Seems a bit more touch friendly. Sure, the tabs look like Chrome, but so what. Wish they would make the pair a device easier though like they said they would.

I have a large text file with hundreds of email headers.

format is:

From: xxxxxx
To: xxxx
Date: xxxxxx
Subject: xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Attachments: xxxxxxxx
Body: xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

This is repeated over and over.

I would like to be able to break this text file into separate cells in Excel so that I have columns for each line above and the data extracts into the correct columns.

From|To|Date|Subject|Attachments|Body

There is no specific delimiter in the text other than carriage returns.

Any ideas?

Recommend me a wifi booster (extender/repeater).

In the new house we placed our wireless modem (received from the provider) upstairs. The signal is fairly strong everywhere in the house except for the bedrooms downstairs. I'd like to place a wifi booster somewhere downstairs and am just curious what you all recommend.

Features requested?...wireless printing would be cool.
