Title: MS Vista

Sucks!

Post by: The Big on February 05, 2007, 03:25:00 PM: Well actaully for some people it works for some it does not. Some of the failure modes are fairly bad so Apple is recommeding that people do not use itunes with Vista until the next release of itunes come out which will be in a couple of weeks. It is probably best to wait a couple of weeks after that to make sure the new release actually works.

Post by: F4? on February 05, 2007, 04:20:39 PM: Big whoops on MS. How many PC users are using ITunes?

Funny, but the last version if ITunes was buggy as well. Talk about a pain in the ass.

I'm not upgrading until it looks like most of the big bugs are worked out.

You feel? Don't have much confidence there, do you?

Post by: The Big on February 06, 2007, 12:22:37 PM: They updated the driver support and actually have X10 so they have what every other OS had 10 years ago.

Vista

DIE

Why go Vista when you can stay on XP. Or, better yet go with Solaris or Mac OS. Comon think about it. If you can run the Mac OS on the new hardware why in the world would someone run Vista.

again DIE

Have they read How To Win Friends and Influence People?

Do not even think about getting me started on the Zune..... fer fuck sake.

Mr Mud- can you network Apple's reliably? Does Solaris have apps and GUI?
Title: MS Vista
Post by: The Big on February 06, 2007, 03:59:50 PM: LOL

Network Mac's reliably. Um.. Yes. Can you get an I.P. address?

Solaris apps and GUI, how many thousands is enough? If you want something like Outlook there is Zimbra and it works on Palm OS plus just about any other hand held and it also works with Exchange. If you want a browser there is Firefox but then you would have already known that since IE is DIEing. If you want word there is openoffice which will probably outpace MSoffice in a couple of years. Why?, because MS is killing itself with it's licensing and cost. They should do a google search on Auspex.

There are some cool apps that run on the MS platform since it is very common. But, if MS is not careful Lynux will sneak up from behind since it is user friendly, just as stable and less expensive.

Post by: The Big on February 06, 2007, 05:03:57 PM: Many years ago macs had a problem with appletalk flooding networks since it was very chatty, kinda like wins. They had a very bad rep and were kicked off some networks. That is why it was gotten rid of around here. We have now some macs on the network and nobody knows cuz they think it is just another unix box.

I'm just waiting for Apple's next release of OSX (and Adobe CS3) so I can finally get a new desktop to replace that HP on my desk... The one that's turned off because it crashes EVERY time I turn it on... I only hope I can get all of my pics off of it before it completely dies.
