Do you think if the US Government mandated Open systems there wouldn't be a long line of manufacturers breaking down the door to provide these Open systems?
I have an ever better reason the Government should be banned from buying Apple (or Microsoft): It ain't Open. You are "buying" a walled garden full of security holes and endless paid upgrades. The Government should only be purchasing truly Open systems.
Seriously, 99% of PC users don't even understand what it means to be upset about "around DX12 performance analysis without an exclusive full screen mode, changes to multi-GPU configurations and even compatibility issues with variable refresh that crop up from games from the Windows Store". Or what UWP is. Does it mean that games aren't working? Maybe you mean Game DEVELOPERS are upset.

Yeah except a majority of computing devices run on Linux and FreeBSD now. So I guess you are wrong.
I was thinking the same thing. Its the most intelligent thing I have said in months and it gets modded down???
Uh, Linux? FreeBSD? There are plenty of Open Systems out there.

Geez. This passes for +5 insightful? Until he posted I didn't realize that cooling the reactor was so important. I'll notify the media.
Yeah, I am pretty sure you should have seen THAT coming for years. Walled gardens. Don't use Windows if you don't like it.
We don't use Windows on Slashdot. We have been telling you for years that closed gardens are bad. Now you are learning your lesson.
No, I won't care because I don't use Windows.
N00b. The Megazapaplus 512GPU is totally obsolete.
What. The. F?
100% correct. No one cares about "DX12 performance analysis without an exclusive full screen mode". Christ.
Damn. Then don't buy games from the Windows Store. Problem soved!
Oh you mean some guys who count framerates are upset about something? Damn, what else is new?
Really? Gamers care? What Gamer is running games from the Windows store???

Baloney. Open Source proves you wrong.
And you guys made fun of my tinfoil hat! Who is laughing now???
Yet the people with loaded guns are usually the dregs of the Earth.
Oh let me guess: you don't like Calvert Cliffs either.
How do you exhaust when there is a shield on top of the port? I am sure the Death Star contractors thought of that!
That was one rant that is 100% correct.
Because mdsolar REALLY doesn't like Indian River. He is against nuclear in general, but Indian River in particular. Probably lives in the area.
I don't have a Chinese coffeemaker, microwave or TV. Neither do you!
