Well, a new Windows has been announced. This is going to be the one after Vista. The name Windows
Seven is only a codename for it as it has not yet been decided upon a name for this new operating
system. A screenshot of Windows 7 Milestone 1 Build 6519: Source:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_7 This windows definitely be better then Windows Vista. What
are your guys views on this? What features do you want to see added to Windows 7 or removed from
Vista....

Hey. I use Windows mainly, as I use games and graphical programs the most. However, I use Linux a
bit, just for programming and other things like that. I'm not that good at programming and
linux though ;_;... Well, I decided that the main reason I don't like to use it is that it
looks so alien, and I hate how GNOME looks. I hear that if I move to KDE I'll be sacrificing
some performance or whatnot. I have this really crazy linux zealot friend who preaches the linux
gospel to me, and will attempt to beat down any reason why I like Windows. I would ask ...

I'm currently saving up for a laptop for several purposes. One of these is gaming and another is
graphics. I can't decide whether to go used and get XP or new with Vista. The main games
I'll be playing are Guild Wars and Halo. I have heard that Vista is horrible and eats up a
crapload of memory. Well what should I do....

Hello everyone! Ive tried one or two linux distros on my laptops but always the same snag...
none/terrible widescreen support, i tried the live CD knoppix and mandriva and another i think that
i cant remember... So my question is, is there a linux distro with good widescreen support for
128OX8OOpx dimensions? to be more specific its 15.4in screen with the afore mentioned pixel
dimensions. my GFX card is labelled as "ATI Radeon Xpress 2OOMnwith PCI Express Graphics up to 128mb
memory" i think only the last part is relevant to the GFX specs but i included it all j...

Hi, I am quite a big n00b with Linux. I need help with this issue. I didn't want to install
Linux on my hard-drive but still wanted to use it as a normal version not from a Live CD. I was
looking for a Linux that can be installed on a pen drive. First I found SLAX and then I stumbled
upon Russix, which is also based on SLAX. I like the security auditing part of Russix.

can be installed on a Pendrive. Can anyone help me with Russix ? I need to install Russ...

About three years ago I decided to learn how to use Linux and after a lot of posts on a forum I
tried Ubuntu Linux as it was recommended as a good first Linux distro. Ubuntu is not the easiest
Linux distro to use but with its unmatched forum community support it is one of the easiest to learn
to use. One of the problems with learning Linux is that a lot of users have an attitude that Linux
should be a free Windows knock off which it is not. Ubuntu is build on a Linix core or kernel and is
a different Open Source and free as in to use operating system. This brings us to t...

Here's a good question: Is Linux better at utilizing hardware efficiently to produce optimal
performance out of your components. I hear a lot about Mac OSX being so much better with Intel
processors and yada yada, but I don't know if this is true or if a bunch of Mac elitists said a
bunch of crap and ran with it. I don't think there are actual comparable benchmarks, but if
there are, where does Linux lie in the hardware efficiency race? (Or is it dependent on which Linux
distribution it is, like how XP still beats Vista in performance?)...

Has anyone actually been satisfied with the release of SP1 for Vista? Does it solve the problems
that we've all griped about? Overview of Windows Vista SP1 From what I'm reading
from that document, I'm actually surprised, appalled, and in a way, now wondering if Vista can
actually be an upgrade. I laughed at: QUOTE Enhances support for high-definition (HD)
drives by adding new icons and labels that identify HD-DVD and Blu-ray drives as HD drives.
That's awesome. I never knew the HD drive that I bought was an HD until SP1. /rolleye...

I've heard this: Windows Vista is more Invulnerable to viruses, trojans, hacks, and more. And
I've heard this one: Windows Vista is not compatible on most Hardwares and softwares, and
Windows Vista isn't more invulnerable to viruses. Which one is right..? Thanks for your
postings...

I believe everyone in this forum knows what a file system means and that every windows user knows
what FAT and NTFS means so I am not gonna start going into those. Well, the NTFS (Windows NT file
system) offers a few advantages over the good ol' FAT (File allocation table) file system one of
which is the files and folders compression. This I have done quite a number of times to save disc
space (and it really does save some disc space). i am using my computer as an example here. Consider
my 35GB partition which is carrying my Windows Vista Operating sys and has less ...

Before i start i want to make sure you understand this is not a what OS is better this is a what is
better at certain things and your reasons why. I would also like to know more about Linux because
i'm slightly confused on it. Will it mess my computer up if i install it, dont like it, and
uninstall it? OK on with the topic. I own a Mac and work on one for many hours a day, but had
always used a Windows based system since well i was 5 and i remember my father using DOS to run Duke
Nukem haha. So i know my way around it. Here is my Pros and Cons list Windows: Pros...

I've just recently tried linux and I must say I"m really impressed with the new KDE and Gnome
environments, as well as the shere number of OSS available. I'm really excited about devling
deeper into this more stable and efficient OS; This coming from a windows user since it's dawn.
I've started with Gentoo 2006.0 to get my feet wet, and I'm planning to grab the new Fedora
Core 5 when I get a chance (as well as more cd's/dvd's) - it was recommended to me.
Anyways, what linux flavor do you prefer and why ? ...

I was hoping some linux tech heads here could give me some pointers about installing linux onto a
laptop I have which has no cd drive. To make things worse it does not even boot from usb. I had
installed XP on it with an unattended install using the /makelocalsource switch which copies files
to the local hdd then finishes setup from there after reboot. Is there an easy switch function to
install any linux distro once you have the files on your hdd? (I have a mapped network drive to my
laptop and sharing from my desktop so i can access my files. I just don't know if...

Well after a week delay because of some conflict Microsoft finally releases XP SP3, and at a
whopping 342MB plan to wait awhile to get this bad boy downloaded. I had downloaded it from another
site, legally of course and to be honest I did not see any improvement whatsoever on my computer,
and so if you don't care one way or another about it make sure to disable your automatic updates
or deselect it from the options when you want to update your computer. That is my experience with
SP3 it wasn't to earth shattering but who knows for those with older computers it...
