<0> its bs
<1> why?
<1> you even have the slightest glue about what winfx is? if yes, then you know what aero gl*** is, and then you know why it needs a dx9 card and why it is cool that way and can't be done otherwise
<0> they should have just used opengl
<1> if you don't have a clue about winfx and the inner workings of graphics display in vista, then you shouldn't decide what is necessary and what not
<2> hey, I like winxp over the last few versons. I just wish there was a way to disable more of the eye candy if I wanted to
<1> if they had used opengl then 1. it would miss a lot of needed features (opengl is only good for 3d graphics)
<1> and 2. you wuold need a graphics card with a minimum version for opengl support
<1> same ****, other name
<3> Dry-ice: shell = cmd.exe
<1> heh... or even less... shell=taskmgr.exe
<3> no, some of the Task Manager graphics look pretty and unl33t
<1> oh... yeah... i forgot that -.-
<2> H2SO4: yeah, but I'd have to make my own email client and port something like lynx or links
<4> Dry-ice last few versions?
<1> then shell = ps.exe
<1> Dry-ice, lynx is already ported
<3> Dry-ice: telnet SMTPserver 25
<3> Dry-ice: no half-measures.
<2> [M]ax: winme mostly
<2> hehe
<4> "<2> hey, I like winxp over the last few versons. "
<2> if I want to use a console, I'll install linux or bsd
<4> and winme was the biggest POS that ms released
<5> haha
<5> it sure was
<5> complete disaster
<0> the aero interface is nice
<0> but the start menu is ****ing ugly
<1> wait until there are more apps using winfx... and not just the basic interface
<1> or go to channel9 and download a few videos... they show some of the stuff possible with it
<1> the next kde too has some really interesting interface enhancements
<4> from what i can remember, i think i have a dx9 graphics card
<1> is it a geforce 6 or newer?
<2> [M]ax: 2k is ok, but it doesn't have my hardware supported fully (same core as 2k, don't know why they work in xp). win98 added features I didn't want or need, other then hardware support
<2> I liked 95b to most
<2> s/to/the/
<4> cant remember though
<0> kde 4 is going to have a whole new interface
<4> Dry-ice STFU, you said windows xp NOT the other veriants of windows
<0> I have a feeling it'll be released before kde 3.5 is marked stable in gentoo too
<1> yeah, and it can do some of the things winfx can do
<1> *already
<4> Ta1oN its an ati card
<2> xp is a verson of windows, no ?
<1> Dry-ice, windows is not windows
<0> which are things OSX has done for years
<4> "<2> hey, I like winxp over the last few versons. "
<1> windows 9x and windowsnt have NOTHING to do with each other
<1> except the name and a little look-alike of course
<1> and a few compatibility features so that you can run dos/win9x apps on nt
<1> windows 2000 and windows xp are versions of the nt operating system
<1> windows 98 and windows me are versions of dos/win9x
<2> oh, nt4 is slow as hell, never used 3.* other then 3.11 :)
<4> n00b
<3> lol
<3> nt 3.11 (for workgroups)
<0> no
<1> heh
<4> Dry-ice, NT 3.11 is a LOT slower then NT 4
<1> i actually started with nt3.5 for my windows history
<3> there is no nt3.11 btw
<4> :P
<1> switched to win95 afterwards though
<4> sorry it was 3.51
<1> no clue why... i think i was just dumb back then
<4> either way i never used it
<1> then back to nt4, (win98 for gaming) and finally win2k, xp
<0> finally, windows doesnt want to reboot after updating
<3> nt 3.5x had GDI in user mode. Aided stability but it was slow. NT4 moved it into kernel mode.
<0> guess they decided to play catch up on that
<1> H2SO4, you seam to know your stuff... what's your job, if i may ask?
<2> "Remote Access Win 3.11 to Win NT 4.0" <-- workgroup was what started the split if I remember correctly
<1> you remember wrong then, Dry-ice
<1> there never was a split
<1> cause they never were united ;)
<3> Ta1oN: I'm just old enough to remember :). A programmer of sorts.
<1> "of sorts"? ;)
<2> This driver is compatible with Windows 3.1, Windows NT 3.11, and Windows NT 3.5....
<4> Ta1oN: smb still exists today, and from what i remember it was introduced in WFW3.11
<1> true
<1> other technologies were carried over too
<1> best example... wmf ;)
<4> wide mother ****er?
<3> SMB was actually an IBM protocol from the 80s (PC Network Program). More ancient history :)
<1> windows meta file
<1> these are all technologies and protocols which are not os-specific though
<3> *nod*
<4> yes
<0> yeah, I'd rather use CIFS
<0> smb is slow
<3> CIFS is SMB
<4> keep in mind that smb2 will be out soon
<0> not exactly
<1> smb is only slow if you don't know what you are doing
<4> and in samba 4
<3> redhook: by definition, CIFS 1.0 = NT0.12, a.k.a. NT SMB.
<4> wonderful day today
<3> they took the NT0.12 SMB revision and said "OK, we'll call this CIFS"
<4> i think im gonna goto town
<6> I have a message from Dry-Ice
<6> he says you're all a bunch of inbred retards
<6> don't shoot the messenger, I'm just p***ing it on
<3> lol
<4> haha
<0> 03:11 <9> New ban: *!*dryice@* (idiot)
<4> lol
<0> anyone played the half-life 2 expansion?
<4> nop
<4> wow, had my line re-graded the other day, just downloaded a 9meg file in less then 3 mins
<0> I thought vista was supposed to have a new command shell?
<0> damnit, gmail is down
<1> redhook, no, vista has no new command shell... there is a seperate command shell available though, which you can install in w2k, xp and vista
<1> and it comes with the next exchange installment as main admin tool for it
<1> !g microsoft powershell
<7> Windows PowerShell @ http://www.microsoft.com/windowsserver2003/technologies/management/powershell/default.mspx | Slashdot | Microsoft PowerShell RC1 @ http://it.slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=06/04/25/1952246 | Web Host News | Opalis Extends Microsof @ http://www.thewhir.com/marketwatch/042606_Opalis_Extends_Microsoft_PowerShell.cfm
<0> 03:11 <9> New ban: *!*dryice@* (idiot)
<0> nice, it reconises 'ls'
<1> just an alias
<1> type "alias"
<0> that will save me trouble when switching around heh
<0> yeah
<1> ls is an alias for get-childitem
<1> and the syntax in powershell can be complicated if you have no .net/c# knowledge... on the other hand, it's more powerfull than even bash or tcsh
<1> you can find good resources on the net to learn it though, if you want
<0> I'll mess with it later
<1> ah, found it... that's the best tutorial i know for ps: http://arstechnica.com/guides/other/msh.ars
<1> so if you want to learn from basics up to the advanced stuff, take a look there, redhook
<8> mess with me now, i need you to mess with me now !
