    XE: (ZWD/USD) Zimbabwean Dollar to US Dollar Rate

    Has this currency been replaced or is it still in circulation?
    In 2009 they cut off 12 zeroes, essentially making the 100 trillion ZWD bill worth 100 ZWD. But the also cut off three zeroes in 2006, and another ten zeroes in 2008. Combined with the 12 zeroes in 2009, that's a total of 25 zeroes.

    Had they not began slashing zeroes in the first place, they'd have dollar bills more like... 1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 aka 1 septillion. Personally I would love to have a dollar bill that says 1 septillion on it. But that's just me.

    It's not like I actually use any of those cleaners. I just have a few.

    Besides, she's jealous of you. I rarely buy bacon.

    Well, maybe she would have if you'd suggested involving her instead of Rick.

    The integrated graphics on this new computer kinda suck balls for gaming. I just checked with a Dell agent to see if I can add a discrete graphics card, but the person said that I can't. Darn. I know that they offer these with discrete cards, but mine must not have the appropriate connections on the MB. I might just check myself anyway, though. For regular stuff, though, the graphics are just fine.

    Yeah, that blows. Separate card with 1GB+ of its own memory is a must for me, but then I do CAD

    My big project at works starts in about a half hour. I expect to be working for the next 5 days straight (yes, that includes the 4th, go live on the 5th) on transitioning a server with a ton of data to another location.

    i hate that, i have a computer that has all the solder points for a pci-e 16x slot but there is no slot it would be a GREAT computer if i did because it supports more ram and processors than my current board
