Vista, Mac OS X Clone?
WMD:
57C? I have the same model, and I'd be scared if it was idling that high. I don't think it reaches 50 at idle. Stock fan.
H_TeXMeX_H:
This is on a laptop though ... max is actually 75 C not 70 ... assuming the sensor is reporting accurate data
Orethrius:
Toadlife: For what it's worth, I was going for the logical fallacies in Xeniczone's post, not the end conclusion. The end matters not where the means are at fault. If he wanted to state that AMDs run hotter, by all means he's welcome to do so, but not by jeopardising an otherwise valid piece of data.
Tex: Thanks, it's good to see that I'm not the only one noticing when someone posts fallacious logic for an otherwise sound conclusion.
back4hack:
I see they've stolen the interface to make it look like OS X but what I would love to know is does the operating system itself now sport an operating system built on open source or does it still have an underlying shitty ntoskrnl?
back4hack:
I take back that last comment, i've been reading about Windows Vista from google.. an yeap same ntoskrnl, just a few tweak's to it. Apparently it wont run on systems without a pretty substantial graphics card. So unless you bought your PC with it on, it's pointless downloading the beta of WinFX RC.
It look's like a pile of something unpleasent, kind of exactly like what I cleaned off my carpet this morning after waking up to find I'd locked the cat in the front room...
IBM has cancelled their contract with Microsoft as of October this year. That means that IBM will not use Windows Vista for their desktops. Beginning from July, IBM employees will begin using IBM Workplace on their new, Red Hat-based platform. Not all at once - some will keep using their present Windows versions for a while. But none will upgrade to Vista. Good for them!
That's just typical of Microsoft, they see apples sale's doing really well and presume that by making Windows look more like a piece of eye candy that there sales will improve, completely ignoring the fact that the underlying OS is the reason people go with Apple in the first place.
Way to go Microsoft.. What Mindless boffin thought this up?
