Letting the World Know : Comment 156 of 216 | ANN.lu |
Posted by Atheist2 on 20-Nov-2002 16:31 GMT | EVERYONE wants the fastest CPU/GPU. EVERYONE wants the fastest OS (which needs the fastest CPU). BUT, there is alot to be said for a RELIABLE/STABLE OS. A machine that boots, almost instantly. Programs that can be installed with a minimum of fuss. Ones that you could put where YOU want them. Ones that can be erased easily, and you KNOW they're gone. Can you imagine, to this day, they sell unistall sw for windows? That registry thing is a psthetic joke. Swap files so suck. I did a clean win98se install, installed 7 pieces of sw and the drivers, and the swap file became 150 megs in size. Ludicrous! I'm sick of seeing 100's of DLL files all over the place. You can't seriously tell me that creating a RAM DISK: needs a 1.3 Meg DLL file!!!! Not to mention that the core program was 113K bytes!! There must be HUGE code overlaps in those DLL things. Ahh, the good old days when things were basic, but very sophistcated! You know what I mean.
Amiga! The dark horse. |
