<0> if they don
<0> BUY BUY BUY
<1> hmm
<2> screw it, boot image cd it is.
<2> and done
<1> is this linux?
<2> yes, migrating my wife from debian to fedora
<1> hmm...linux is so beta-ish
<1> or beta esque
<1> similar to os x but os x is not as bad
<3> !s GPS
<4> GPSN.OB(GPS INDUSTRIES IN), GPS.V(BSM TECH INC), GPSRY.PK(GRUPO SITUR SA D), GPSRF.PK(GRUPO SITUR SA D), GPSLF.PK(GRUPO SIDEK SA), GPSBY.PK(GRUPO SIDEK SA), GPSAY.PK(GRUPO SIDEK SA D), GPS(GAP INC), NGPS(NOVATEL INC)
<1> unfinished OS
<2> os x is a desktop environment on BSD
<3> !q GPSRY.PK
<5> Error: I could not find GPSRY.PK.
<1> kde and gnome are unfinished
<1> they look like tests
<1> like experiments
<1> nothing anyone could really use day to day in real life
<1> that is why i stick with windows
<2> I trade day in and day out using linux
<1> and my mac is for sale because i've been screwed by apple for the last time
<2> and it works as good as my XP machine
<1> now, i hope i can get win2k to run on my tablet
<2> ick.
<2> you want something lighter
<1> yes
<1> than xp
<1> xp is insane
<1> a HOG
<1> slow as ever
<1> eats memory and crashes
<1> win2k is stable
<2> so let me get this straight. Linux (which is stable, fast, lightweight) is not as good as windows (which you just stated is a HOG and crashes?)
<1> they are both at opposite extremes
<1> linux is too light
<1> and windows is a big bunker
<6> xp is slow on a dinosaur pc
<6> it runs fine on anyhitng > 1ghz
<0> ROOOOOOOOAAAAR
<2> Linux is only as light as you want to make it
<6> with some ram
<1> so i have to go and buy a new 3.4 ghz dual cpu xeon to run xp?
<6> do look at the specs for vista
<6> lol
<0> XP bashing is sooo played out
<0> soo 2003
<6> 256 mb vid card
<0> ya
<2> I'm not bashing XP.
<0> start bashing vista
<2> I have admitted that this box runs XP just fine
<1> why is it so difficult to make a decent operating system? is it really that hard to write proper code?
<2> and that I have had very few issues with XP SP2
<6> a linux desktop just ****s
<3> !q GPSlf.pk
<5> GPSLF.PK (GRUPO SIDEK SA DE) - 7:40pm: .85 Change(0.00) / Opened(N/A) Lastclose(2.85) / Range: Daily(N/A - N/A) Yearly(0.00 - 0.00) / Volume(0)
<6> open office is getting decent, but nowhere near as robust as ms office
<3> !q ngps
<5> NGPS (NOVATEL INC) - 4:00pm: .45 Change(-0.30 -0.84%) / Opened(35.86) Lastclose(35.75) / Range: Daily(35.01 - 36.706) Yearly(21.69 - 40.10) / Volume(106353)
<2> see, I have to disagree. I love the features that a linux desktop yields.
<2> specifically when trading.
<1> what features?
<1> it has no features
<2> virtual desktops
<6> windows has virtual desktops
<6> not by default
<2> :)
<6> but like 12308123109 apps out there to do it
<7> wind0ze is crap
<6> but dont say linux does by default
<1> are duo cpus really that much quicker?
<2> and my point
<2> only if the OS and Apps take advantage of it.
<7> windows has virtual desktops?
<6> sill3: dual cpu or dual core? either way, yes
<6> champi0n: yes
<8> game take advantage
<7> what is a virtual desktop
<6> http://www.google.com/search?sourceid=navclient&ie=UTF-8&rls=GGLG,GGLG:2006-06,GGLG:en&q=windows+virtual+desktops
<9> Tiny URL: http://tinyurl.com/nqedz (URL by Juzzy)
<7> multiple desktops?
<2> yes.
<1> how much faster will a dual core make photoshop run?
<6> sill3: it's not liniear like that
<6> its not so much "faster"
<1> just give me an average pls
<6> but lets you do more stuff
<1> oh, so it's like scsi
<2> Is it compiled to take advantage the dual core extensions?
<1> just multitasks better
<1> ye sit is
<6> yea sorta
<6> the app has to be threaded to take advantage of it
<1> so more or less it is a waste of money?
<6> and most everyhitng in windows is threaded nowdays
<2> can be, it depends on what you're doing.
<1> excel and firefox
<1> mostly
<1> and watching divx movies
<6> stuff like maya
<1> no
<6> and adobe encore
<1> oh
<6> take major advantage of dual procs
<1> i won't be doing 3d stuff
<1> or photoshop
<2> bbiab, have to go back up the wife's box.
<6> probably photoshop
<1> just excel, firefox, and watching divx movies
<6> but really, its not cpu intense
<6> it is compared to notepad, but doesnt come close to big enterprise rendering software
<1> oh and mIRC too of course!
