    Yeah, and drugs are not that bad. If they were, nobody would be using them.

  10. Re:SSD Write times suck, wear issue still there on Thinkpad X300 With SSD Performance Evaluation · · Score: 1

    Swap space is the only thing this may become an issue, but then again you're springing the extra $1k for an SSD in your laptop you've probably also paid the extra $50 for 2GB of memory, making swapping a rare event.
    And how many kilobytes should be enough for everybody? Dude, are you kiddin' me? No matter how much memory you have, windows will still copy stuff to swap.
  11. modular? on Windows 7 Likely Going Modular, Subscription-based · · Score: 1

    Like in windows 2008 server core? Where you have the same exact interface but without the functionality behind it? Yep, you have a browse button, and all of those other buttons, but they don't do anything. That's their definition of modularity I guess.

  17. umm on Software Tool Strips Windows Vista To Bare Bones · · Score: 1

    For someone that's interested in stripping windows to the bare bones, I would suggest to look at windows server 2008 core version. It's supposed to come out in February 27, but you can already download an iso image from the microsoft site and try it. P.S. I think that the difference between vista and windows server 2008 will be similar to that of between windows xp and windows server 2003. They're almost identical OSes. They use the same kernel. Just different default settings and software that is installed.

  18. Re:Mortgage? on BitMicro Takes Wraps Off 832 GB Flash Drive · · Score: 2, Funny

    I can only imagine the reactions of people who will have to come up with that in a few months when they heard it from the management.

    Does the slashdot effect apply to dns servers too? I seem to be unable to resolve the hostname.
