Tom's Overly Detailed Vista Review

prostoalex writes "The weekend is here, and several software sites have published extensive reviews of Windows Vista for your reading enjoyment. Tom's Hardware is running a 500 hour Windows Vista review that spreads out 40 pages." From the article: "This new operating system is huge: it has more than 37,800 files, taking up a total of 10 GB. Part of this size stems from the fact that the current Beta is for the so-called "Ultimate Edition", which contains all available components, including complete versions of both Tablet PC and Media Center capabilities. In addition, many applications have been compiled in debug mode, so some space savings should occur for final versions once that debug switch is turned off. For our Windows Vista preview, we used Build 5381."

what's really sad is, i've submitted stories about actualy police state tactics being used in the US (no not tinfoil hat, as in i actually have and linked video of jackbooted thugs beating us citizens who did nothing illegal) and had the stories rejected.

wow surprise surprise, my comment criticizing slasdot for ignoring real stories of rights violations gets modded troll, while the parent to this post, an obvious troll, remains with a karma bonused score of 2.

just as with the corporate media, /. also will refuse to let stand comments which go against it's interest.

It gt modded "Troll" because there is no "Hideous, Ugly, Braindead Cocksucker"-option; I agree that you would deserve the latter.
