Vista on a dual Core with 4GB will out perform XP on any task, I'm afraid XP really isn't built with parallelism in mind like vista was, I suggest you go out and use Vista on a 4GB dual core before you pass comment.
I can't comment on Ubuntu I have only used it on a single core 2 GB machine, and after spending ages setting it up with an Nvidia card and linksys wireless card, (which failed after installing the 236 updates I was requested to install) i formatted it after 3 days it really doesn't do much, alright for a home PC maybe.
I'd slap it out purely for the GPOs, new redirected folders, additional peripherals and user security, some software is becoming vista only. Although I'd only do that on new machines as the general age of IT equipment restricts the wide spread deployment of vista.. Unfortunately, depending on what type of company you have it maybe the only way of stopping data from leaving your company boundries.
Yeah, tell me about it when you have an OS with natively supports Wireless connections on hardware from numerous vendors were you don't have to resort to numerous ndis commands!! I ain't saying shit because as I previously stated whatever comparable facts there are on the differences, improvements or bugs between the different OSs it's always drowned out by.... MS are shit, blah blah blah, baby killers.
I doubt I will be frequenting el reg much longer as you can find better technical articles in other places with comments from people who actually use the OS and have constructive criticism or warning about them and have actual jobs in IT and development, not a load of ill informed mutants who barely know how to use a home PC and like jumping on the latest hate MS craze
Open Office has issues, it's Ok, it's not there fault, hey come on guys it's just the way software is you know?
MS Office has issues, Kill Bill, burn all MS developers children and piss on their faces, how dare they do this, what vile disgusting shit, boycot boycot burn!!!
Kinda sums it up, no matter we all really know which the better Office suite is even if you choose not to use it.
What's Itanium got to do with x86, if I remember correctly you have to install the IA-64 compiles of the OS and who even cares anywho something better will be out next week, probably by Intel, then IBM, then Intel again then some obscure highly invested Chinese brand will wipe the floor with them both
They weren't a source of power your silly boy
"Bio-neural gel packs are a form of computer technology used by Starfleet, first developed circa 2370.
The gel packs form the basis of the bio-neural circuitry, which is essentially an organic computer system. The packs contain neural fibers surrounded in a blue gel with metallic interfaces on the top and bottom. They help store more information and operate at faster speeds than isolinear circuitry. "
Who knows what will happen, android vs whatever Microsoft slap together (I believe MinWin with Silverlight banged on top), oh MacOS will be the spit bucket of these two competitors. Should be interesting no matter what, if Google get their head out of their arse then maybe all these devices will talk to each other and the world will be a better place.
I wasn't refering the tech that this website is built on but merely the fact that if it wasn't for microsoft the IT world today would be a completely different landscape, maybe it would be better but given either the complexity or undeveloped nature of other system and the stupidity of the majority of computer users I for one am glad that microsoft stepped up when they did.
And to the foolish comments pining for a reduction in fuel duty: where should the money be spirited from in order to pay for our schools, hospitals, Welfare State etc? A hike in income tax perhaps? From recent experience I think we know how popular that would be.
A few of those 50" plasmas taken off of jobless might help, and then back to food stamps and unmarked tins of food.
"Hey look he's moving like a monkey"
Truely his monkey skills (which you all laughed at) have come in handy against this Open Source hippy, to be honest here's were the scales are
Pay Microsoft Millions or Have stupid impatiant children who kill people after having to wait for Open Office and Firefox to load, I mean you lot must waste two or more weeks of your life waiting for that crap to open up.
P.S. At least Ballmers got a nice hero story for around the water cooler, "it was like the matrix"
We install Vista on all new machines going into our clients offices, there's no issue what so ever and the new Group policies are a dream, as long as it's on a dual core machine I would recommend it over XP for performance reasons (if it's single core or has less than 1GB then stick with XP), XP seems an awful lot more sluggish than vista on dual cores and starts up a hell of a lot slower.
As for all the moaners here who can't get it working in a business environment I feel sorry for your clients as you are obviously incompetent, a good IT professional or developer will ALWAYS find an answer to a problem, someone who is shit i.e. you, will go for the simpler option of reformat, reinstall then blame MS for any lost work, I suggest you take a change of career you give us all a bad rep.
Go back to your back street shop and format a few drives (cause isn't that what you guys do when you can't solve a simple issue?) you stinking hack..
As for the comments of Kstars, stellarium and Celestria this kit isn't the same type of software as it uses real imagery like G sky not a database of points like the other 3. But having used all but Kstars I'll stick with this beta and Celestria with the high res maps.
Seems to be a review of someone who can't even install a simple app, tell you what boys get your IT lot to uninstall your porn dialers or go back to google earth Lester and continue your search for your little black helicopters.
Anywho having installed and run the software flawlessly I am presently surprised although this review doesn't seem to note that the application itself does piss all over Google Sky. But why bother to state the fact anywho when el reg of late is absolutely brimming with MS haters, you'll get a much higher rating by simple stipulating "Crap... don't work", but to help you out i'll rate it as "Oh orgasmic" anyway...
Walks off mummbling "Journalist my arse"
Am I reading this right OK first.. cut funding... increase class sizes...... reduce discipline... and now remove office and replace it with some flaky feels like a soggy leaf software, what a fucking joke this government is.
If open office ever gets into schools then that generation will be screwed, what other outcome is there when people are installed with such low expectations.
My kids will be going private becuase I want them to have a future, thanks alot you stupid hippy gits
You seem to picture Bill as some kind of Scrooge McDuck hoarding vast quantities of cash in a money bin, shouting "No it's mine" to those who try to have a look, yes Melinda has an influence but it's inevitable that most people with so much money that they don't know what to do with it will contribute to charity. As for your COD go space dock it you prick.
Since I was merely commenting on the "Halo" defamation I must point out that the majority of "his" money goes here http://www.gatesfoundation.org, I wasn't specifically talking Microsoft although it's software on windows that’s used by the blind, deaf and people with learning difficulties, not Linux, (although this is through my own experience and I maybe wrong but I don't see how it would make finacial sense to do it any other way unless it's something embedded)
Bill deserves his halo
Bills money and vision has saved/improved a lot of actual lives either through his philanthropy or MS products, so yes I think he does deserve a halo.
Although Steve deserves the horns, his products just encourage the heads of completely arrogant assholes to slide ever higher up their own sphincter
And, you talk shit
Should this scheme be given the go ahead I wouldn't be surprised if none of the profits made went towards a single green project. Instead they plough the money into the giant bosoms in which all taxes go so that the lazy commoners will suckle upon it through the teats of the welfare state.
Of which living in the stinkhole of Blackburn, not having my rubbish collected for the second week thanks to the bin mans stike, will I recieve a rebate, nay and groin kicks aplenty.
Stupid Government, when will a natural disaster swallow the horrid isle.
And sync it with your windows Desktop PC, truly nobody cares, if you want to take this thing out and about it want to plug it in to all manner of mobile devices and photography equipment etc... Why would you piss around with Linux trying to get things working??? Of course the windows version is going to sell better; asus don't want to throw their R&D money away..... I think we should all thank MS for allowing this product to become much better instead of just and expensive brick.
Ahhh it was only in this articles http://www.theregister.co.uk/2008/04/29/microsoft_research_grants_hypervisor/comments/ where the apple guys were running around slagging off MS for being ungreen even though they were giving away millions to help....
You stupid dicks
