All those holes and they write good stuff? I doubt that. They should fix what they have before they start writing more programs, with more holes I might add.
My $.02 worth there. :D :D :D :D |
First day on a xbox at the mall:
Demo! Choose a game to start, down,down,'a'. Loading.... comeone, load! you @#% a ..Jam[][][][] aaaaaaaaaaaaabbbxxxyxyxyx<><>^^^\/\/\/ like windows this is not a joke, this is something I tested, I though xbox was superior... |
It still windoze lol. What do you expect?
:D :D :D :D |
lol sadly enough, my roomate has an xbox and we've seen the blue screen of death with its fatal error on the console!
|
ROFLMAO. God this hurts. What is windoze really good far? Crashing. They should gaurantee at least one good crash a day and get it over with. It does it any way so may as well add the "feature".
:D :D :D :D |
lol add a short cut keys that way after it happens you can get on with your day, I remeber somone asking me if i could recomend any short cut keys for windows, i said, the only ones u need is alt-ctrl-delete.

To all of you idiots who thank Microsoft for bringing easy to use computing to the masses I say one thing:
YOU ARE WRONG! In 1984, Apple introduced the Macintosh. It truly revolutionized ease of use computing in two important ways: 1. It paved the way, putting in practice a GUI OS with easy to use point-and-click and drag-and-drop interface. and 2. Everyone else cloned the Mac's ideas. Except for Microsoft. It's the latter point which people forget. By 1985--just one year after the Mac's introduction--two major Mac rip-offs were introduced (the Atari ST and the Amiga). They even had some innovations like color graphics, pre-emptive multitasking, multiple workspaces, hardware graphics acceleration, and plug-and-play hardware. These three enjoyed a healthy competition of the GUI systems for many years. If MSDOS weren't so dominant in the market, it's likely that all home computers would have gone to multi-tasking GUIs with high resolution color graphics far sooner! So...what do we have Microsoft to thank for? Windows 95? Get some historical perspective--Windows 95 came to the multitasking GUI party a DECADE late. |
the negative aspects of their coercive and illegal business practices outweigh the positive aspects of their product. and their collusion with media companies (and other organizations) regarding DRM and TCPA is inexcusable.

My Machine hasnt crashed in over a year. Where are some of you getting this info? |

That is not the only one I have seen do that. I used to work on computers. 90% of the problems were fixed by re-installing the OS. I'm just glad hardware isn't as bad as the OS. We would be in bad shape. XP is better, but it is not as stable as Linux or a Mac. Later :D :D :D :D |

most true indeed but I was just referring to a comment alot of people make saying their machine crashes alot running Windows and I think it varies from individual to individual. Like I said I've run mine for over a year with no crashes (800mhz only 256 mb ) running Photoshop, a few music applications like Soundforge, and other heavy programs and while it has slowed down and even freezes occasionally its more due to the lack of ram in my computer and the number of processes running. peace |
My brother has XP too. He has not had a crash either. I did make some changes when he first started using it though. I cut off some things and prevented him from accessing some things. He is older than I am but he has no clue when it comes to computer stuff.
He also only turns on the thing, checks e-mail, play a game of solitare or somethng, then cuts it back off. If he left it running all the time, it would likely crash then. Windoze just can not sustain itself for long periods of time. It has memory holes, resource problems and then if there is a problem with the app, it can take the OS with it. Not always but a good portion of the time. I also keep Norton up to date for him. He would be dead without that. Linux can run for years if you want it too. I have noticed that when I first boot mine, it is actually slower than when it has been up for a while. It uses cache a lot and I have 1GB of memory for it to cache to. It helps make things load faster. I rarely reboot. I shutdown when there is a bad storm, I need to change something in the BIOS, or need to change hardware stuff. That is about all that gets me to shutdown. Windoze seems to require it from time to time and gets slower if you don't. I like what having a standard OS, like M$, has done for computers and the average user. I do think that if it were no M$ that something else would have came along anyway, like Apple. They may have even made Linux better faster because they would have 'concentrated' more on the average user and more would have been participating in the development. I also don't like M$ business practices. If M$ would play fair, windoze would likley be even better than it is. It really does need a complete overhaul from bottom up. Not sure they can do that though. My $.02 worth. Later :D :D :D :D |
Were do you take your information from? Hey, I agree when he above talks about experience.
This is my box 256 MB RAM is not cheap, no mem problem here 20GB is way up, no HDD problem here swap? Turned it off because, who needs it with 256 MB of RAM? I never get my system filled at 75%!! The problem? Sasser virus. (I think It's was a compound of virus', in two weeks, I had to reformat three times. I format one day, two days after, I lose it) The fourth time was the day i put in linux void outside_comment{ I hate viruses. One poll I made was "Who do you think make viruses?" crazy programmer 50% anti virus company 50% } The problem above made me lost some work, I cannot cope with viruses at the same time I figure out maths. The only thing I had to learn with linux,(or rather, the first most important thing) was C:\Documents and Settings\mimithebrain\My Documents is the same as /home/mimithebrain Let's hope linux-ppl have more sense in themselves and don't make viruses, the day they do, I switch back, or make the MTB kernel. |
