HTPC = XP Pro Media Center

My desktop = XP Pro w/Windows 7 on another drive. I choose boot device via bios when I want to. Didn't want a dual boot menu.

Wife's desktop = XP Pro

Upstairs HP laptop = XP Home

Hobby room HP laptop = Vista Home Premium 64

Vista Home Premium 32 in a box on a shelf. Bought it for my desktop lastyear then didn't like it. Vista came on the new laptop so I'm learning to like it.

 

It's really old and has windows 3.1.

 

XP home premium on both desktop and laptop, looking into 7 for both.



I love these threads, especially because of Arca. Just makes my day reading his tech posts

 

XP Media on a dual core Gateway. Works great so far. At the church we have XP Pro on a Pentium II and Vista on a Dell. Both of the churches computers are slugs by comparison to mine. My laptop is a Quad core Dell and is pretty quick with Vista. Typical Dell, battery life is short and hot.

 

Not all Dells have hot batteries that don't last - my stepdaughter has a Core 2 Duo with a 9 cell and it runs all day on the battery. Inspiron 1520 with XP Home.

 

x2. My 1530 runs the battery on high performance for hours just fine. If I stick it on battery saver I can get up to 6 hours out of it, if not more.

 

I do too, I usually try and help back him up but he seems to be taking care of this one just fine.
vista 64
windows 7

 

Yup, haha. Id back him up too but I just look retarded when I do haha

X11 NOT DX11
X11 has been around for at least three versions of OS X

You're such a cool dude for slamming someone about something YOU KNOW NOTHING ABOUT ...

I run OS X 10.5.6, Windows XP and Windows 2000 on the same MacBook. I have Windows Server 2000, 2003 and OS-X Server 10.5 and 10.4. I am down to one "Windows" computer - a Server running 2000. Server 2003 is running on a OS-X server using VM Ware.

Since 2000 I have purchased 15 Apples and 5 PC's ... Right now I have 10 Macs and 1 Windows server working. Sold 2 macs and all the others died for various reasons.

 

I'm rockin OS X on my main computer (macbook pro). Works well enough for me. Running TinyXP on the HTPC, but hopefully going to give that rig a major overhaul and throw Windows 7 on it.

 

Don't tell me what I do and do not know, I gave Macs a chance but I couldn't stand them. Especially not being able to disable UAC and the fact that half of the time its assumptions of what you want to do are wrong. It's like not being able to disable that god damn paper clip in Word... except it's for the entire OS.


When he replied to my DX11 statement wouldn't you assume he was talking about the same thing? And from my point of view he apparently didn't know the difference between DX11 and X11 and concluded they were the same thing.

And 15 apples? Why do you need all of them? Is it because you have to buy a completely new Mac every time you want to upgrade?
