Ok. I officially believe this OS to be the ugliest damn thing I've ever seen. What in the hell is this big ass bar tingie. :retard:


Internet Explorer is a version unavailable yet....probably littered with all kinds of bugs right now.

The default Plex theme needs a shit load of work done to it. The graphics are really, really bad.

Already did. It's not just kinda ugly. It's really ugly. Nice try on the applets, but they don't come anywhere near the beauty of KDE and Gnome.

Damn copy cats.
 
It's not part of it yet. Still has NTFS as the only option. As of right now, it still boots up with a WIndows XP logo as well....
 
On a base install, right after the OS loads, we checked the Task Manager. The system we installed it on at work was a Duron 1300 with 256MB of RAM. The friggin thing was eating 228MB of RAM with nothing running!!!!

FUCKING HELL!!!! What a POS OS!
 
If I remember correctly I think xp did the same thing
in the early beta versions.:shrug:

I'm seriously thinking about going exclusive Linux.
 
I'd go Linux but what would I do with all these .wmv porn movies?
 
Everyone is always *seriously thinking of going to Linux* but they never have the balls to do what they say. :rolleyes:
 
PT you can convert them to mpg, or avi.:D

Jerrek,
Balls?
What do my balls have to do with anything.:p

I have 5 out of 20 of my comps running it now.
I said "exclusively". ;)
I also have a low end cluster setup with 5-586s, and a pII450,
I play with from time to time.:headbang:

I guess I'm just waiting for the price to get right on the
software that make it so I can use some of the thousands of
dollars worth of windows software I bought work with Linux.
(win4lin, or lin4win, or something like that):shrug:
 
Your balls? Well, um,

* fondles catocom inappropiately



20 computers? What are you, a geek? Wait, wait, 20 porn movies at the same time? *frown* You must be a man of many talents...

Jeez.. what are your power bills like? Does all of that load pop a breaker now and then?
 
I don't run all of um all the time.;)
I did have to shut down most of them recently, that
were Genoming, because of the bill. $400:eek:
Part of that bill was were my dad keeps turning the heat up to 80 though.:disgust2:

Pop a breaker?
No I've got them scattered out through the house, and my lab.;)
I don't run more the 2-3 off one outlet.
 
You figure that all of that heat disspation should keep the house slightly toasty as it is. :D ... but I can assure you that the heating draw is most of your trouble. My house has 8 cpus running 24/7 and my power bill last month was all of 108$
