One major suggestion was completely ignored: To increase the number of output ports. As it stands, the previous version had 3 outputs... and will now continue to.
Big mistake.
Word on the street suggests that additional multiplexers will be made available... elsewhere.
Getting off-track seems to be the proposed penultimate goal of most.
Here are the critical points of the article, for those lacking the ability to distinguish:
1)"Vista's networking technology will be less stable, at least in the short run."
Whoa, short run, imagine that. The intelligence to scrap an outdated stack-based system in order to produce an -ultimately- more stable networking system on Windows. Unbelievable.
2)"'We expect many of our results to be invalidated by changes made prior to its public release,' the researchers wrote."
See point number one; research the terminology "short run".
C'mon guys. Stop pussy-footing around with the ball when you have already lost it.
Who would want to waste all of their tech skills on a market share of only 1-3%? Not me, or any creditable coder. What a ridiculous./ "news" article to even entertain. But then again.. it is./
Yes. Such a surprise. None of the brilliant minds in India want to waste their time on 1% of the market share. BIG SURPRISE. Maybe they should pursue... oh wait, they're far too intelligent to pursue open source, linux, or the like. Like I said, BIG Surprise. Get with it,./ concrete headed mongers.
Like any bloated article... just read the intro and finale paragraphs.
"Microsoft's new Vista is surprisingly entertaining. The new look of the operating system is good, and lets it outshine its Linux and Mac OS competitors. One notices repeatedly while working with this software that Microsoft scoped out its competition very carefully.
Unexpected crashes sometimes occur when working with beta software.
It remains to be seen whether users will still enjoy the many colored effects in Vista after they've seen them for a while, or will decide to turn them off in favor of a normal default Windows scheme with gray windows. Either way, Vista incorporates many small but effective changes that can help simplify work and also boost productivity for everyday tasks. Many of these small details don't manifest themselves to ambitious users until weeks or months of exposure to Vista, and are easy to miss when working with early versions of this system."
It is far, far too late for you. Get prepared for a mediocre middle-management IT job that barely relates to IT. Every successful bloke in the true IT community has already dedicated himself to his dream, his passions, and therefore creates his future path. If you've done nothing, no demos, no experiments, no anything... give it up to a life of mediocrity.. THere are far more well dedicated with the obsession for creativity and desire for knowledge that blokes who ask questions like yours never will understand.
"Convertible" laptops.. like the gateways or toshibas are phenomenal. I just purchased a Toshiba M4. You get all the benefits of a laptop, combined with a TabletPC. It's great for normal dev-work, but kicks ass when I flip it to draw.
