HAHAHA, good one Bill! Very funny! Windows needs to reboot after an update

because it is "more complicated than Linux". Methinks the reason is far

simpler than that. It's because Windows is so poorly written, that it

requires so many reboots to configure it properly.

Of course I did. You just can't remember or didn't read it.

I upgraded to Vista cause I wanted to and I could.

Unlike you, who can't afford Vista even if you wanted to get it.

 

 

If it walks like a duck ...

 

 

So now you're walking like a duck...lol...what's that all about?

You need help don't you?

hahaha...well...go get it!

The same could be said to you in regards to your "Linux expertise". You're

one of the few who hasn't been able to even get Linux installed and working

and yet you think you're totally clued into all its shortcomings. Maybe you

aren't the geek you like to pretend you are? Here's a geek that has a

completely different take on Ubuntu ...

 

http://www.geek.com/ubuntu-linux-should-be-your-operating-system/

 

"I have hated Linux. I began looking at it back in the mid- to late-1990s

and I hated it. I was a software developer and I looked at the source code

and I hated it. It was awful … it was tedious … it required you to know so

much about your system that I found it useless. And did I mention? I hated

it.

 

Today, I can say this truly: I used to think like that, but the times have

changed."

 

Then again, he knows something about computers and isn't just full of

bullshit.

Alias has kicked your sorry behind so many times you've been reduced

to nothing more than the newsgroup clown. On the plus side, you're

doing a great job of replacing Justin who once claimed that title.

Fair enough and thanks for showing some honesty. Of course, if your bread

and butter depends on Windows, you should keep using it. Unfortunately, you

also seem to go out of your way to keep slamming Linux. You don't need to

do that Bill, unless you're getting really insecure about your bread and

butter. But if Linux is no threat to your os of choice and is a toy

operating system, not worth considering, then you really shouldn't feel so

paranoid.

 

Just keep using what works for you. For others, sick of Microsoft's tactics

and wanting to keep older hardware running, that won't with Vista, Linux is

certainly an alternative.

Mr. Happy

You sure have a skewed view of the word. No wonder you are an Ubuntu

zealot. I PREFER to feed my family, have a nice home, freedom to travel,

help my kids, put money away for retirement, etc.... Most of the world uses

Windows and they wern't fooled into buying Windows, it just so happens that

Windows is the best solution out there. Of course there are issues and

problems, but with such complicated software there are bound to be problems.

 

How about Linux? Last time I updated Ubuntu, there were 81 updates. Maybe

Ubuntu is becoming bloated also.

 

I'm glad that you understand how hundreds of thousands of people use

Microsoft products to make their living. I provide solutions to business

problems. If I need to use Microsoft technology to get the job done, the so

be it. My software saves the company money by making other peoples jobs

easier.

 

You keep using Ubuntu as a toy and leave the "heavy lifting" to us

professionals. By the way, what do YOU do for a living (if anything)?

You can friggin say that again, the bloated and dual core or more part.

 

My major project I am currently working on, screen shot here:

 

http://www.somrek.net/sizer.png

 

Used to be C# / .Net / Managed DirectX based and windows only.

 

Rendering time for a somewhat complex PCB board with a total of about

20,000 elements was about 200 milliseconds on a single core 3.2GHz P4 and

about 90 milliseconds with my 2.4GHz Core Duo. And believe me, I am *no*

newbie to .Net programming. I've been using it since .Net 1.0 was in beta

and used to be a major contributor in the EFNet based IRC help channel.

 

My code was as optimized as only possible.

 

My new solution, C++ and OpenGL based and Windows/Linux/Mac compatible, is

just a tiny bit faster.

 

The identical dataset needs about 20 milliseconds on the slowest friggin

system we can find in our office, which is below specs of my 3.2GHz P4

system. My Core 2 Duo doesn't even scratch 10 milliseconds and that is

with only using a single core. I haven't even bothered going multi

threaded for multiple cores yet.

 

I've found the .Net framework, while it does make life cozy and

convenient in the windows world, to be useless for anything that's

performance critical.

Hi,

I'm another guy named Frank B. and I'd like to chime in for a reality check.

I've got Ubuntu dual booting on 2 computers with XP and Vista.

 

And I've got Mandriva Spring One on an older laptop. And what's my reality

check?

 

BOTH SIDES ARE CORRECT. I use LINUX & VISTA & XP AND I LIKE THEM ALL. Yes

Vista is bloated and sluggish etc etc ,.....but it also is geared to run

Major applications that Linux right now can only dream of. (Yes, you do have

to have recent Vista-compatible versions...but wait and let's see Linux's

situation......)

 

Sure there are Wine, CrossOver, VMware etc etc,...but I've found something

through direct experience: These are great for tinkering with programs like

Dreamweaver MX, Photoshop and Flash. But do you have Real Dependability with

them ? In short, No.

 

This is what I've encountered:

 

- PS 7.0 runs great on wine - it also "Kicks" me out of the program randomly

from time to time with no warning. (But hey, no freezes !!)

 

- DW MX worked great for a while then it began, every time I wanted to

access my remote site, to 'encounter a fatal error'. So "DW mx must now

terminate".

(Btw, a clue: this is like having no program at all. And FYI, I've seen

other 2-year-old posts on this exact same topic that have No replies as

yet...I've emailed CrossOver and have not received a valid reply to this

concern. I've also tried reinstalling CrossOver and DW mx)

 

- I've spent hours and hours scouring through forums and googling to find

answers about configuring hardware. At one point, I Finally got my Canon

scanner configured. How? By visiting a FRENCH UBUNTU SITE and using their

English-based code. (Yep, that JUST WORKED !! RIGHT??)

 

- It took over a week to research and figure out how to manage a jumpy

cursor/keyboard problem on my laptop.

 

- I have a ATI X-1650 Radeon card which is very recent technology. Will

Beryl and Compiz work with them?? NO. It is not supported for accelerated

graphics in Ubuntu. Hummmmmm.

 

All this may imply that I hate Linux. Not so - actually, I LOVE it. But I'm

tired of all the lies these trolls are spreading. Why are these trolls here?

Maybe so you won't see what Ubuntu forums are like. I encourage these guys

to hang out on Ubuntu forums and help beginners there, rather than troll

here. You'll do much more to "convert" people that way than you will

spreading lies on this forum.

 

And yes, maybe your experience with Ubuntu is all smooth. That's a reply

game many use in Linux: "Well, mine works fine." But you know what? That's

what you're hearing here on Vista. Many have indeed had very smooth

experiences.

 

So go help beginners in Linux on those forums. Get A Life.

hahaha...don't make me laugh! Then what the hell are you, an admitted

What are you afraid of? Linux going by the wayside?

You don't really need to be here slamming Vista do you. Why are you

Unlike you, I have never, ever, had one single problem with Windows updates

and very diligently reboot after downloading and installing them. So?

Hundreds and hundreds of people are having problems with the .NET

updates. How come you're not over at microsoft.public.windowsupdates

helping those people out instead of lying about me and others over here?

Not really. With some ten programs open, it uses less than 279MB of RAM.

Most of the updates are improvements to the programs installed, not

"security updates" like you get with Windows every month.

It's not related to computers except that I use computers to do it. What

You are either delusional or have no clue. I am NOT scared sh**less at all.

Not in the least. Each and every "enhancment" Microsoft makes, solidifies

my standing in my profession. Microsoft is somewhat alarmed, but they are

not scared. Even if you have your way (which you won't) just by attrition,

it will take decades for Linux to overtake Microsoft and by that time, I

will be on a beach in the Bahamas drinking and watching the girls go by on

the beach and not give a rats ass about any software solution.

 

So you job isn't in the computer industry so you have no idea what you are

talking about. You just keep preaching Linux/Ubuntu just like those Jehova

Witness people who come by on Sunday morning, knocking on doors trying to

convert the people to their cult.

 

Keep dreaming and maybe Ubuntu will be big in your world!

No, it just so happens that MS was the one to cut the deals way back when

with the OEM's to put Windows on the PC's they sell. If it was IBM that was

able to cut the deal for OS2 Warp, we would all be bitching about IBM now

instead of MS.

 

For a very long time now, if you go into a store, all the PC's have Windows

pre-installed and for most people, a PC _is_ Windows. And to further that,

most people only know the OS is called Windows because that's what it says

at the boot splash screen.

Yes you are correct. IT doesn't matter which company is at the helm. If

IBM wasn't asleep at the wheel, they would be the dominant force but

MicroSquish took those honors. It doesn't matter how they got there and

they will be there for a long time to come.

 

I'm not worried about it. For those who preach about other solutions, they

are just a boil on the ass of Microsoft!

Regardless of whether or not someone can afford to buy something means

absolutely nothing if said person doesn't want it anyway.

 

It time for you to think up some other put-downs.

 

Not too creative are we.....you've been calling Alias poor for months and

Adam a drunk for months....can't you come up with anything new (or possibly

new AND clever) ?

Sounds like you can't take the truth. Linux will take years to move a

couple of percentage points up the ladder. Microsoft will lose a few

percentage points, but until Linux gets their act together, they will still

be a small standing in the world.

 

So why can't you say what you do for work? You said you use computers in

your job? Could it be ringing up orders for customers wanting a Big Mac,

Large order of fries, and a small drink? Oh yea, some of those POS systems

are probably on the Unix/Linux platform :-)
