When I was in the UK, I worked out it was cheaper for me to fly to New York and buy a laptop there, that it was to purchase on in the UK. Buy 2, and you make a handy profit.
Do you know why that is? Because if you upgrade, you get an unstable system. And if you don't you need to get everything working again, all your programs setup.
It is a huge pain to move to a new OS, when you have everything working. I am not sure why this confuses you, maybe you don't run anything apart from what comes with XP/Vista?? Most people don't.
I was the second person to download Linux 0.1, have been a Linux devotee since then, spend weekends installing Red Hat on laptops at best buy for fun, weekdays hand out free DVD with Ubuntu, and have converted all the University machines to Scientific Linux.
Said that, I walked past an billboard advertising W7 and I was sold. It was so good, even on a huge paper display, that I am fully Microsoft now. I have become a c# developer over the last 20 minutes, and I am now as proficient in that as I was in C/C++. I have bought all the MS hardware, as well as all my clothes have little Microsoft icons on them.
I have used Linux before, I would love to again, on the desktop. It is such a nice OS, makes sense, doesn't hide important functions behind windows and settings. I would love to be able to run that at work. One of my machines is a HP piece of shit, that luckily enough the IT dept upgraded from Vista to XP. But I would still love to go back to those great days of Linux, man that was nice.
2000 was the original version of XP, just as Vista is the original version of W7. If you haven't figured it out yet, look at the version numbers.
The performance difference between Vista and XP is an illusion, every single test shows Xp as faster. You have Vista on a faster computer, but are too stupid to realize it.
All the studies I have seen show W7 as being the same speed, or slightly faster than Vista, on the same hardware, even for gaming. There is no speed increase with W7, more likely you are using a newer computer.
I won't be moving to W7, I have no reason to waste time learning a new OS. Microsoft enjoy moving everything around, for no reason, like changing the control panel. Such a huge pain in the ass trying to do the simplest of stuff, because Microsoft love tinkering with stuff.
I know, and why don't they make it a million meters wide, that would be great, so much more power. And they should make it red, that would be faster. And they should make it absorb heat, rather than produce heat, then we could sit it in the desert. And they should make self replicate, so every hour it reproduced itself, from the sand int the desert. Gee, if they just did that, we would have loads of cheap computing power...
How do they intend to make circuits smaller than current lithography methods allow when the DNA solution is aligning itself to lithograph etchings? Further work required, methinks.
No, they have finished. It is ready. You can get it on at your local best buy right now. Just go and ask for your DNA laptop, they will now what you mean.
You are an idiot. This maybe a bit harsh, but it is true. If you can't see the point of having all the map available to you at anytime, no matter where you are, then plainly put, you are an idiot.
So I guess if you could live on less money, you would ask for less pay? Oh no, that would never happen, so why should a company, whose profits are much more important to its health, do the same?

Why not, they make most of there money on the games, not on the hardware. Surely this would make them sell more games?
Or he could have just built a Visual Basic gui to track the IP address. That always works.
This is not the point. The point is that the basis for approving breast feeding is that it is natural, and that is clearly not enough of a reason.
Try to actually read what was said, rather than jumping on the bandwagon. I know it is difficult...
OK, I admit it, I like Windows 7.
Wow, just like everybody else who has been modded up in this article.
You forgot Windows 2000. Most people try forgetting ME/Vista.
XP is sp3 for 2000, just a W7 is sp3 for Vista.

Here is some news for you:
Microsoft Code != Quality code.
I would put most OS projects above there MS counterparts.

You don't get this on Mac OS.

Beat Eriksen? Don't mind if I do?
I guess that teaches i4i to keep their sourcesafe.
Yeah, I am sure you have even used it. Fuck of MS fanboy, go back to neowin.
Oh, don't let not knowing anything stop your from commenting. How else will we know how much of a wanker you are?
IT manager I presume?

You don't need to repurchase the app. All apps are stored in itunes, and Apple knows that you have already bought an app.
For cars, yes. For laundry detergent, yes. For Airplanes, no.
And just like Alanis, you don't seem to have a grasp of what it means to be ironic either.

Well I can say that I am moving my AMD 7550 boxes nearly as fast as I can get them together
Ok so this could mean you are moving 100s a day, or one a week.
Even better if you can follow it up within the next few days with "do you see that woman? Her tummy is big because a baby is growing inside".
Just be careful you don't say it too loud, especially if the women in questions isn't actually pregnant.
