Mee too. I always like benchmarks. Especially when the people who do it have no idea of what a benchmark is.
How about a bechmark which compares apples with grapes ? I would really like one of those;-)
every OS plays mp3s. they're more than good enough for all but the most anal retentive of audiophiles. if you're really overly concerned about quality even in that case, just use VBR mp3s
That's pure bullshit. Mp3 not only fuck's up the spectrum of the sond but also the dinamics range of the sound. There are songs which I cannot listen on mp3 even at 320kbps. MPC format is in this respect a little bit better than mp3 but the filesize is much bigger.
I prefer lossless encoding.
In mp3 a 90dB dinamic range becomes a 20 dB dinamic range.
It certainly wouldn't surprise me. Remember when Win95 first came out? Win32 was offerred as an upgrade to Win3.1. Once you had the Win32 library installed, you could run many of the programs supposedly designed only for Win95. Interesting how a completely incompatible OS could be updated with a single DLL, isn't it?
They weren't incompatible OS's. They were different version of the same OS.
The OS in question was MS-DOS.
Win3.1 is a 16b its GUI for MS-DOS. WIn95 is a 32 bits GUI for MS-DOS.
It sort of proved to the world that the Win32 API and the underlying kernel were actually two separate entities. (As they should be.)
Yes this was the case for MS-DOS+win (more or less - see above.)
But this is not the case for WinNt.
And taking into account that the crash of the GUI always crashes the OS your statement seems to be false.
I used to play mp3s quite happily on a 68020 based Amiga 1200. Don't know why you were having so many problems with a 486... it'd have what, 10 times the processing power?
Because the 68020 is a real processor unless 486 which simulates one.
Did you actually read the fine thread? All Chris is doing is creating a single point of contact for security related bugs.
Did you actually read the thread ?
There was such a list. It was called vendor-sec.
There were bugs which they kept hidden instead of submitting the actual fix
Many of the people working for the government are some of the most moral people in the country... and many of the people working for the goverment are the less moral people in the country. And what's worse is that they are in command
Windows 98 is 6 years old and isn't sold with computers anymore. This test just shows remaining Windows 98 users they should keep up to date or upgrade to XP.... because the latest virus only run on win XP;-)

This is so desgusting

COMPUTERS ARE NOT A RELIGION
;-)
You're right. They are human beings
they broke the 1ghz barrier in June of 2000
IBM broke this barrier in 1998 with a BiCMOS CPU

The easy way: ... twice to be sure
/dev/null $HOME ;-)
rm -rf $HOME
The hard way
find $HOME -name \* -print0 | xargs -0 -n 1 rm -f
High way:
rm -rf $HOME ; ln -s
Some programs will complain but they are stoopid anyway
Viagra gives you intellectual property ;-)

my 2.6.8 kernel doesn't keep me from using my cdburner ;-) :-)
Maybe yours is broken
It's called
"Only one remote hole in the default install, in more than 8 years!"
LOL

yeah
in terms of memory and cpu usage is even better
because they are stupid
that's a lie. In america there is no censorship.
... in another universe perhaps ;-)
Only in China.
In america the elections are not faked.
Only in China.
etc.
America is good. China is evil
Adding new capabilities to users is a common and entirely
effective way to backdoor a Windows system.
LOL
All your base are belong to us
(Yeah I know, fair to Microsoft... on Slashdot!)

I think Mexico si a good candidate ;-)
At least in school we were thought that Mexico is in North America
ROTFL.
You think only americans are naive ?
You lose!
Do you want to play another game ?
for a capitalist you seem to know so little about money ;-)
There are several ways to reduce the size of a normal version of Windows if you want to do some work yourself.
/u /dev/hda1
format c:
or better
mke2fs -f
What capabilities ? Last time i checked it didn't had any.
