RE: Psion Wavefinder



Hi Mark..

 

To be fair… I just don’t like XP – I’m 2nd / 3rd line support for a large company… so I work with 98 / 2000 pro / server for a good part of the day… which I feel are ok – just about… but they still crash too often for my liking…

 

I just think for what it does, and what it is, XP is too resource hungry…

 

*lol* @ comments on linux… well.. I’m quite new to linux.. after a good few years with windows 3.0 – XP… I’m still trying to figure it all out (its even more difficult when now I’ve had to loan my pc to a neighbour ;o(( )

 

the 2000 servers we have here – run like an absolute dream too ! – fallen over once I think in about 6 months….

 

At the end of the day – its like most things in life… I prefer Vauxhall cars.. where as others like fords (Found On Roadside Dead..)…

 

Jonathan ;o)

> Windows XP is the worst operating system I’ve seen…

 

Not seen many OSs then? :)

 

> It requires 128mb of ram to contemplate running anything like ok

 

Well, that's about 12 quids worth of memory these days.

 

> When you logon, it resembles a well-known kids tv show.

 

Turn it to classic if you don't like new interface.

  

> Now – linux – runs like a dream.. never crashes… but wont run a wave-finder (I have looked!!)..

 

LOL - now it's all clear.  Another win bashing linux type!  :)

 

It never fails to amaze me the absolute...err...ballderdash talked about Win vs Lin.  My HA PC runs for months and months (Win2K Server) without a blip.
