    but that you should keep in mind the amount of RAM you have when opening more and more programs recklessly.

    thanks for not being an asshole, and also for understanding more than the power button -- unlike the other people who have posted here.

    so i paraphrase. The point is Windows can't handle a few multi tasking chores. Life was sweeter with Win98. I actually enjoyed W2k quite a bit until it was murdered my WINME, now I cant get it to boot up anymore...

    well, i imagine that if you're new to 'puters you may not be familiar with the concept of "multi-tasking" look into it.

  10. Re:boycott XP? on Windows XP: Prices, And One Reaction · · Score: 1

    for the rest of you who dont have a dictionary, a boycott would be a group of people refusing to buy a product. Except rather than just _not buying it_ they will also band together into a group and give reasons why they aren't buying it. MS has decent products, just not for the price, thats one thing that might get me to buy it, another biggy would be that licensing garbage. You know, its not likely theyll change, but if were strong about it maybe they will. At the very least we can hope that gates gets a visit from the ghost of steve ballmer and three other ghosts at christmas in order that he "mend his evil ways."

    you jackass, we are humans, the 'bots will be made by humans, therefore they will have the same drive that we do, but they will eventually be more efficient at it.

  15. Re:"won't purchase heavily restricted music online on Future of Digital Music in Doubt · · Score: 1

    well, if you were using your brain instead of your asshole, or you knew a gd thing about J++ you'd know they stopped developement of the Swing class, the class that allows for interoperability between different operating systems. No one supports this class, and MS is the only one that can dev it. they are a bullshit company, and ill be happy to see them go out of business.

  16. Re:"won't purchase heavily restricted music online on Future of Digital Music in Doubt · · Score: 1

    i have payed for one Microsoft product my entire life: visual basic dev studio, just so I could get J++. I no longer buy MS because they FUCKED me on that. I did however just buy a boxed copy of Redhat 7.1 -- becaues they have a decent product and im willing to support it. So, as you wish, "you're wrong." -- hey, stop laughing...

  18. Re:2 Questions... on Windows Reaches 64-Bits, For OEMs · · Score: 1

    what about *nix? does the general 64bit support that *nix provides mean it will provide support for AMD too? Also, does BSD support 64 bit? Thirdly, how do I know if my second processor is working correctly under the SMP kernel in RedHat 7.1?

    i cant believe i actually considered going for this. What a joke. You're absolutely right, after all these guys get their W2K certs, XP will be out and they can burn em.

    btw, in regards to 64bit windows - will it crash faster now?

    dyanamic pages. intranets. online collaboration. The things we take for granted in the "off-line" world. This allows for more experimentation with integration.

  21. pretty on The Failure of Tech Journalism · · Score: 1
    "Well, for a single mom with two kids, pretty is not on the agenda. It could look like it escaped from the mind of R.L. Stine if it worked. Cheap and functional are the things which should count here, not pretty and cool. Besides, what are we, 16 year olds? Cool is for people with nearly unlimited disposable incomes. Elton John gets cool, the rest of us need functional. So many reviews are baffled and bullshitted by design issues over function. "



    please, looks sell, marketers know that, manufactures know that, the unbelievable thing is that it took them damn near 20 years to realize we didn't all want beige computers. I mean, damn, look at the success of iMac, and pcmods and that will prove it. I can hear them patting their backs from here.

  22. wrong on The Failure of Tech Journalism · · Score: 1

    though they are pretty well on the ball with Slashdot, they aren't with LinUx, and this seems to be nothing more than a raspberry to all the companies who are out of money. "Look at us stick our tongues out to all of you "journalists" now on the welfare line." Not very professional if you ask me, but then who would expect that from a "journalist" who uses the word "fucking" and "ass" in the same "news piece." I like "qoutes."

    Scott Adams is out of touch with the white collar working community, and it shows both in the article and in his comic strip.


    betcha my grandpa never thought he'd hear THAT one. whoah is me I make 50k a year, heh. Adams is never out of touch, the only thing i find interesting is that he's still so on the ball after all the years of being out of corporate America.
