Huh no, I was actually saying that Windows 7 will run perfectly fine on the hardware you currently have unless you have ancient hardware that should be replaced anyway.
And "M$"? Really? That's like the best way to look like a child when trying to argue.

Try installing Windows 7 on your Core 2 Duo 6600 instead of your 386. It works a lot better!
Apparently its max frequency is quite high with Turbo on, damn. I have a i7 930 here (OCd so I turned Turbo mode off) and if I had Turbo mode on it wouldn't be nearly as fast.
The person I responded to wanted to make a choice regarding the performance of the two approaches, between Intel and AMD. He never mentionned anything about power consumption, heat, earthquakes and lady gaga apparitions. So I just answered his question, nothing more.
I couldn't spend the savings elsewhere on my machine, by the way. More than 6 GB memory or a video card better than the 5850 isn't going to make up with the fact that the AMD offerings are just plain slow compared to the Intel processor I have.
Intel almost always gets better benchmarks regardless of the amount of cores. This also applies to gaming and application benchmarks, not just synthetic ones.
Obviously I'm talking about the times where it's not accidental, but it seems you're going for funnies and not an actual logical argument so it's okay.

No, he doesn't.

I did mention power as one option, and power directly implies heat.
Oh, you definitely did, I meant Wyatt. And definitely go AMD for low cost/power.

As for power, the parent didn't mention it.
Performance information?
Intel is better.
Has been that way for many years now. Yes, it's more expensive.
And you didn't, and now are going to complain when shit doesn't work?
Go fuck yourself.
So instead of leaving me with my working but out of date anti-virus you decide to remotely disable it? Go fuck yourself.
How long would it have taken you to notice your anti-virus was outdated if you can't notice 6 months of warning?

I really wish thieves would let you know half a year in advance when they'd steal your car.
After 6 months of warning.
I'm angry at all the people who will most likely whine about this even though it's their fault. No, I was not affected.

You file and get your money back. I've done it before.

Just patch before you go in offline mode.
Ah, interesting. I'm glad I'm not affected though.
VS has never done this for me. Which version of Visual Studio are you talking about? Really VS.NET? Because that's 7 years old AFAIK.
I see, I thought you were saying that Ubuntu automagically installed non-free drivers without asking questions.
So, huh, it's just like Ubuntu then? I recall several useless scary warnings about unfree codecs and drivers.
I don't know what that is... so few people got the BS:G related joke though, *sigh*. =P
Dun dun dun!
Not that that's MS' problem, but yes.
A queen that is completely irrelevant. Woot.
