  1. Built-In Battery? on New MacBook Pros Launched · · Score: 1

    I want to replace my first-gen MBP, It has been a great laptop, the only problem was that I needed to change the battery three times in these years.
    Now Im nervous about the built-In battery, how much will take them to change it?. I just hope they're not like those sonys.

  2. Re:Mac 2.16 Ghz vs 2.0 on Apple MacBook Pro 'Fastest Windows XP Notebook'? · · Score: 1

    You're completly right, im convinced they are equal, and thats something. I've been quite doubtful about getting a Mac because of some Windows apps I need but with these tests I make mind. I think my comment was biased by the Slashdot headline "AMBP Fastest Win XP?", and I lost focus on the positive results, and that it wasnt your claim anyway, just an observation you did. I think thats quite common in this forum, The headline being a manipulation. Sorry I fell for it.

  3. Mac 2.16 Ghz vs 2.0 on Apple MacBook Pro 'Fastest Windows XP Notebook'? · · Score: 1

    According to the test:
      http://www.pcmag.com/image_popup/0,1871,s=1565&iid =127601,00.asp

      -All other laptops used Core Duo at 2.0 Ghz
      -The only 2.16 showed N/A
      -And the difference is only 1 second in the test.

      So this test is inconclusive

  4. C# Its a better option on Learning Java or C# as a Next Language? · · Score: 1

    1. Simplier than JAVA, this will let you concentrate on more important aspects like the OOP paradigm, abstraction etc. 2. Even if you are a Linux Die Hard you will finish your projects faster in C# and in Windows, let the linux programming for a bit later, maybe you are going to use another language anyway. 3. You can allways use MONO if you like. 4. C# its newer so less people will have X years of experience than you. 5. Java will never, never be open source (ok at least in the next 6 months). 6. See the previous topic about Java losing momentum. 7. You can allways use MONO if you like. Allways remember: Languages are over rated, learn the foundation.

  5. Re:A "Review" based on check-off charts? on MySQL Beats Commercial Databases in Labs Test · · Score: 1

    Completly agree with you.

      And in Oracle uncommited data written to disk is written to the log so it can be undone in case of a system crash so its false that you can read uncommited data!!! That isolation level its not even supported as it realy means no isolation.

  6. Gone to c#, vs.net on Departure Of The Java Hyper-Enthusiasts? · · Score: 1

    Also c# can be seen as a descendant of Java but with a better IDE (Visual Studio) and also a great class library. Many are been seduced by this irresistible combination, even with the lack of open source projects other languages/frameworks have.
