Why do you hate Windows XP
lazygamer:
I am running a version of XP that is the corporate version and is a very late beta. As such it doesn't seem to have XP's stupid stuff like this talking animation you can't get rid of, or that "call microsoft" stuff. Could anyone fill me in more on this version? I got it off my Brother.

This will never happen. The vast majority of the people in the world are stupid. Majority rules. Even if the governments rule such vast amounts of people, the majority still reigns in the end.
quote:u got that wrong BUB!!!! I've got many of systems running linux redhat 7.3 without 600mhz.....matter of fact right now i've got a Inel P3 450mhz with less than a 1gig hdd that linux is installed on(full server install) then it serves 192 webpages, an ftp server, and a mail server with it's 120gb hdd mounted in linux.....although it does have 512mb ram.....also have an original all intel chipset and intel pentium (original) 50mhz with 16mb ram and just shy of 1gb hdd with a second hdd with 4gb(an old computer i use to show what linux can even do without newest technology)the 2nd hdd is practically empty with maybe 20mb taken up....linux can run on anything u put it on.....everything i have running has Linux Redhat 7.3 Server full installation...also got high end systems running redhat apache and oracle9i servers......LINUX CAN DO IT ALL!!! and do it fast! and do it with complete stability! UNLIKE WINBLOWS XPos!!!!!!!!! winxp user, you are a F-in dumbass!!!! u don't know what your talking about! how much system experience have u had? and how much of that has been with UNIX/LINUX systems??? probaly like 2 weeks for a system and 0seconds with linux/unix??? right? LMFAO dumbass!!! lata

Im curious, how does Linux run on a 286? Anyone tried? :D
Oh and XP user, I think your full of shit. However if your telling the truth of Linux running that badly, logic would suggest to try it all over again on another computer. You can't argue with all these diffrent Linux versions available(if Linux was a fucked up source, no one would bother making it better) and all these people backing up it's performance, then what you say is an isolated incident... or a lie.

when we put the i386 version of redhat 7.3 on the intel pentium 50....it jus left it under i386....it ddin't change it down to i286 or nothin but it works....jus slower than anything new we got LMFAO but who can argue...it works and is stable lol...and all our other systems runnin redhat just configure themselver up to i686 and run just fine also.....so far we haven't had a single reject out of the systems we've tried with redhat 7.3 lata
voidmain:
Why would it change it down to i286? A Pentium 50 would be an i586. But are you sure it was a Pentium and not a 486? I don't recall Intel ever producing a 50 Mhz Pentium. The earliest Pentium I recall was 75 Mhz. The fastest 80286 ran around 20 Mhz. 80386 was around 16-33Mhz, 80486 went all the way up to 120 Mhz with the DX4.

yes it was a pentium....an extremely old pentium....its clocked at 50mhz.... may have been 75 to start but it's running 51mhz right now....buts it's not exactly the hottest or newest processor out there LOL....it may have lost a bit of clock speed through the years....but it configured itself up to i386.....thats what it's running as....but it's diffenateley a pentium I processor....100% of that...but as of this moment it's clock speed is 51mhz with 1-2mhz range of error......very sluggish but fun to mess around with...lol lata

I'm only sixteen, but I know my computer history, the slowest intel processor ever was the original 8086, It ran under 10 mhz, so it was like watching paint dry, it was only an 8bit system, if I remember correctly. IBM used it in the original Pc they desinged. Those ones were real useful, no input except for some BASIC programs you could enter with the handy dandy keyboard, It was great. I think it did use tape storage and some type of floppy drive/ Guess who this was also the beginning for- our friends at microsoft. IBM was looking for an OS to use, a big company turned them down, so they went to some loosers in washington. Microsoft designed (stole) MS-DOS 1.0 for IBM. Then some other companies got in on the action and Microsoft started selling MS-Dos to the public and to other PC companies. IBM eventually fell from compitition, and MS became rich. Thus beginning the shitty, anti compitition, anti piracy company, who used a form of piracy themselves to take over the computer market. It's all IBMs fault, wanna know why? Because they didn't fully licsence DOS for their system, if they had, Microsoft couldn't sell it to anyone else. We could have hacked away the seedling before it became a big fucking weed. My knowledge came from a book, there is no way I could remember all this stuff, This all happened before I was even born. Cool stuff though.
We now continue with XP users question- WIN XP sucks because there is too much spy ware, middleware, and XP has too much control over the system. It craps all over itself if you enter the fucking serial number wrong.
I guess I should watch what I say now that I've given away my age. So from now on I'll watch my fucking mouth, quick, someone get me a mirror.
