1. notice how many times in that article he refers to "Windows 2003 Advanced Server"
2. Notice how there as of 2003, there is no longer an "Advanced" server version. As of server 2003, there are only four server versions: Standard, Web, Enterprise, and Datacenter. This is outlined here  http://www.microsoft.com/windowsserver2003/evaluation/features/compareeditions.mspx

In short, this guy most likly does not have an MCSE certification, and either way has no clue what he is talking about.

You're lucky I'm not admin.

Anyway, Sorry for binning without checking out Admin forum first. :p

I'm running XP on the monster rig I use at home--a brand new Compaq mid-tower--and the OS blazes like a Corvette. I especially like the four games it comes with - Hearts, FreeCell (so addictive!), Minesweeper, and Solitaire. It's easy to see why XP is considered the ultimate platform for gamers.

You're all a load of gullible fools, I can't believe you took this seriously. :D

Exactly.

 Read his other articles. The one about XP version NO and how it competes with version ME.

 He has a nice satire going on. ;)

If you're talking to me and e7ement, we didn't read the article before the  bin attempt.  The article's hilarious, no doubt.

Windows Longhorn will be like having a little cop right inside your computer

Can any of them prove that Linux is NOT illegally derived from Unix System V? If so I haven't seen it. Once this case goes to court in 2005, and IBM loses, Linux users will owe SCO $650 *per seat* for Linux deployments. This is far more expensive than Windows.

with Windows XP I don't gotta worry about emailing viruses to my friends and family at all. The built-in email client Outlook Express does it automatically, in the background.

:D

I remember when I went back to Windows XP in 2003. Damn that was extremely depressing. I started reading Channel 9 and stuff just to accept MS on my computer and to avoid looking at other alternatives. Now I won't make that mistake again unless software patents forces me to remove linux from my computer.
In that case I don't think I'll ever use computers more at least not x86 or x86_64. I think It has to be an Apple, one of their newer one with Tiger off course. But who knows maybe Apple will loose the batte of the patents too together with the other smaller companies.

Sounds like Doomsday...

What is Channel 9?
Title: Re: MS rules!
Post by: RaZoR1394 on 27 May 2005, 01:49
Channel 9 is Microsofts attempt to communicate better with normal users not just developers and companies using their tools. Though I mostly saw developers there.

However, they post lot of stuff, like pics and videos from newer products like Longhorn, Visual .net suite 2005, msn services etc. They also interview the staff from all kinds of divisions (games, visual .net, msn, windows, smartphone and ppc etc).

Here's (http://channel9.msdn.com/) the link.

Software Patents won't force you to remove Linux, they will force the developers to not be able to put certain idea's into their programs. The concept is completely archaic. Of course copyright laws are susposed to protect distribution of material, but people still do - one could say copyright laws is what created pirates. I think with the lunacy of software patents, a lot more programmers will just be working under psudonyms, and writing illegal code and using anonymous networks like Entrophy and Freenet to distribute them. The same applies for the threat of Open Source becoming "illegal" in the United States.

i can rip, burn and mix on my linux server. the games that come with most distros are better then the ones with xp. one thing better then linux is xp media center. now, if there is a linux alternitive to media center, please tell me and i will, in a nice way, destroy media center. i only use windows for my laptop cause it has wireless and i cant get linux drivers for my card, my pc cause i play games a lot and its with linux on my server because i am developing AsCP, a cpanel anternitive for windows and linux.

I haven't got a TV card, but if I did, I would certainly try MythTV (http://www.mythtv.org/).
