Title: Windows Vista (Longhorn)
Post by: Taoki on Jan 17 2006, 03:36 PM
So I got it the day before yesterday; the beta for the new Microsoft Windows Vista also named Windows Codename Longhorn. It seems to be very cool so far but still has alot of bugs. I have beta 1 but I'll get 2 as soon as I can.
The problem with it is that it eats up all of my CPU. I've never seen anything like this and it works verry slow and it also has some programs show corrupt text (like Yahoo Messenger) but from my experience it's going to be a great Windows after it's finished.
So, who else has it and do u like it?

I'm gonna wait 'til the final version is out, probably. Gives me time to upgrade my computer and stuff.

You'd want to have an at least 3Ghz processor for it. But yeah, it's better that you use XP till the final version. I just got it cuz I like to have the latest version on everything ^.^

I heard about Lonhorn, and its changed name to Vista..

Aparently Microsoft name their Opertaing System's after cattle.. suprisingly somebody did write some random series around this time called the: OS girls..

I bet its probabily simlar to what I've heard of Pokegirls.
- Somebody is mocking Microsoft by making stories...

I'M GONNA KILL MICROSOFT!!!
I got a system message earlier today that said that I have 11 days left to use Windows if I don't activate it. ON A BETA VERSION!!! These imbecil idiots are paranoid someone steals their precious good for nothing Windows. It has a cd-key like all software, fine, BUT A 15 DAY ACTIVATION!? AND ON A BETA FULL OF BUGS AND ERRORS THAT I HAD TO REINSTALL XP?! This is more than embaresing. The Microsoft company should fail! I don't even think 1 year old children would do such a thing. They'd laugh 3 days if they heard what Microsoft did. Dammit...

Wow. You got lots of rage. Just like me. :P

I think they implemented the Activation crap early. But it doesn't make sense to do so on a Beta. I mean...You're TESTING it for bugs and shit.

Getting and installing prototype operating system=
PHAIL.

Waiting for the finished product, getting and installing it upon release=
NOT PHAIL.

A miracle happens, and a falling meteor of fire somewhat crashes and destroys the main Microsoft building, incinerating everyone and reducing their machinery to scrap metal=
MIGHT HAPPEN, BUT HEY, MAYBE PIGS WILL GROW  WINGS!!!

Yeah xD, I imagine something like in Doom 3 happening in the Microsoft building. Bill Gates makes an experiment then demons come and transform all the Microsoft staff in zombies ^^ C00L
And I was calm xD I just talk like this not to get angry. But I have to admit I wasn't happy at all ^^

Microsoft is actually ilegal in Europe.. thats why they have the company in America.. because the same law doesn't apply.

Kind of tight really.. because it still ruins other good companys which         ..could become really good.

There are many sites dedicated to hacking Micosoft.. and they say its .. ilegal yet.. the very exsitiance of Microsoft is ilegal..

I hope some company releases a Operating System which isn't about Microsoft.. and hopefully works. :)

Microsoft is illegal? You sure? I mean, they're the most known software company in the world despite the fact they're idiots...

At the beginning the whole idea of Microsoft was ilegal in Europe, so they started the company off in America..

And you know how things spread.. despite it being ilegal, it still found its way into Europe. And I think the company has been sued loads.. but its not like they care anymore.

You won't find any news on the Microsoft sites, oviously about this but..
My dad is a rival company.. not a commerical company though.. rumours I've heard its to do with the Milatry / Goverment. Ok forget I said rival.. but he knows whats basically going on..

Bill Gates stole the idea for windows, by stealing it of a photocopier.. or thats how the story goes.. I may be wrong by some facts.. I might not be certain it was a photocopier.. but thats not the point.. he stole the idea of someone else.

The ilegal talk in the UK, is about Domination... the law or the EU / Europe believes that all companies deserve a fair compertion, and no company can over dominate them all.. well Microsoft did just about that..

Anyway before you call me a liar.. etc its only rumours.. and I haven't talked about it for a while..

So Microsoft's success could be all from an act of....plagurism???

Well either way, I hate Microsoft..
Did you hear the time when MSN tried to demand people to pay for their hotmail accounts? And their virus checker managed to corupt windows, till they got another version to fix the update..

As for email, I have a GMail account. (With Invites, PM your email if you want one.. I promise I don't Spam.)
And for virus checkers, I get the Norton system..
