But in UNIX style systems you can actually FIND THINGS in your/home. The preference files in the Windows user directories are hidden in arcane locations. Makes sense that the Outlook data would be in C:\Documents and Settings\\Program Data\Microsoft\Outlook but it's not. The only way to ehfin find it is to back the stuff up! What if the computer crashed and I can't RUN outlook???? I'm hosed (this actually happened)
Dos had a standard UI (not GUI, but UI). It doesn't count, but not because it requires multitasking, because it doesn't. You could start one program, close it, then start another and still have a standard UI between them.
Windows didn't get true multitasking till NT, before that programs were pretty much put on hold till they were focused on again.
Windows 7 32bit only supports 3.5Gb of RAM, same as Vista 32bit, and XP 32bit.
When you are running from a CLI you need much less RAM.
Ouch... does that include requesting stuff from, say,/.? or is it just sending stuff from web servers?
It seems like it would be both, because a GET request uses 80...that would suck.
Yes, very much so. Forgive my attack on his spelling, I am not British. It is kind of like in many southern small towns in America every car/SUV/etc is a 'truck'.
The fact that you spelled propaganda wrong tips me off that either you missed that spelling class, or you don't know what you're talking about.
Did you hear about the recet MSSQL skeleton key? Ever tried to port a.NET app to OSX? Ever tried to manage 200 Win03 computers in an office with people periodically clicking every attachment that comes through their inbox?
Admittedly, other than the skeleton key and a couple of speed issues, MSSQL is not that bad. And the old DOS wasn't too shabby.
Yahoo has pretty good email actually and its filtering features are more flexible than gmail's. Yahoo's folders make sense. There's a lot to commend Yahoo mail.
What have you been smoking? They make you pay for POP3/SMTP support and pay more for IMAP support. The new web based interface is even slower than the old one. And at least google's ads on the webmail don't actually get put in the messages!!!
I'd rather see Google get them because Google might preserve the good stuff, while Microsoft is more likely to absorb and rebrand.
Well, at least you're not completely gone. I guess i overreacted a bit to the opening sentence. To this date I have gotten thousands of spam messages in Yahoo Mail. GMail: 2. IMHO Gmails Labels make more sense and are more functional than Yahoo's folders.
Hey, I didn't vote for him. And Bush didn't keep all his promises (lowered spending being one of them). I wasn't happy with Bush, but would prefer him to Obama. [/end id="potential_flamewar"]
Yeah, it just so happens that the "one website" is the official presidential inaugural committee site, which pompously dares to call it the most open inauguration in history [pic2009.org].
omfg! I'd better accelerate my plans to rebuild Atlantis. *sends out emails frantically*[/sarcasm]
I can't believe they actually said that. Remember people: promises made by politicians (of any party, standing, or otherwise) probably won't be kept. Don't trust them.
That is exactly my point. When you just get started using vim it seems crazy and unintuitive. Then once you learn the keybindings, everything moves faster. I was able to work faster with vim than MS Office or OpenOffice after only a few days using it.

You can have more than 10GB. Use the other option. (10GB for XMB Rest for Linux)
Good point. But how do I know you're not a script kiddie trying to get me to hand over the code?
Google was unavailable at the time. If you have to google to find where your application data is, it is arcane.
Funny, if you have to google it in Linux, it's hard to use, but if you have to google it in Windows, it's obvious.
Copy the user profile over? I tried that. it didn't work.

Oh, there's a way. I've already done it. [Code Unavailable to prevent scriptkiddies from doing it too]
Ok, that's you're preference. I prefer Win95's DOS to 95/98/ME/NT. That's my preference. (And i prefer sh/bash/zsh to DOS)

yes. name Something 95 does that DOS doesn't (besides multitasking...thats the one big thing)
Same here. Gotta love it!
Someone mod this guy up!
@Ghworg:
Ask Comcast to define 'protocol agnostic' and I'm sure they'll say something like this:
Equally affecting each protocol except our own.
They learned from Bill Clinton...

No, being fined for buying something and then downloading it again (or visa-versa) is slavery.

The standard QWERTY for English isn't the greatest either. Dvorak is better imho.

But the games are funded by EA so thus EA makes the games.
ModUp! When certain companies *cough*EA*cough* gets a hold of this it will bring them to a new low.

It did now? That's a serious mental illness. It's called 'Iseemagicitis'. As far as I know it's not curable.

Haha! I like your thinking Opportunist. Behavioral Psych can be fun to abuse as well.
