Dident i read about windows and 12min of safe time before trouble hits..
Beyond that.. I could have sworn the problem with widows becomming a secure OS was the fact that it was not Open.. thus nobody can tell if it is secure or not.
correct me if i'm wrong but the advantage to open source is the barrage of people out there who can see errors and report and patch... windows is more of a trial and error process for secuirty... which by definition is just not secure...
agreed any new linux distro will have SATA out of the box..
my point was winxp does not.. and 99% of the pc's i build for people want winxp...
just that floppys come in real handy once in a while..
YAY.. Lets Jump on the bandwagon and Only Use "NEW Tech" and get rid of all our floppys..
My Brand New SATA hard drive.. and Win XP.. oh wait.. you mean winxp does not have sata drivers??
Looks like i should have held on to that floppy drive just a bit longer...
