In addition, CIDs will be able to tap into Microsoft's Windows Live services, as well as Web services from other vendors." | Dec 06 00:38 |

Chips_B_Malroy | "Microsoft has been collaborating with U.K.-based ARM for more than 10 years. However, the collaboration has been based on the Windows Embedded CE and Windows Mobile operating systems. When asked if Windows 7 might someday work with ARM processors, a Microsoft spokesperson said that the company had "no comment around any future investments in the ARM platform." | Dec 06 00:41 |
Chips_B_Malroy | My question is, if M$ is pushing "windows embedded CE" for ARM, isn't this an older version of Windows Moble? If so why is MS not bringing out Moble for ARM? | Dec 06 00:44 |
schestowitz | Hey, Chips_B_Malroy | Dec 06 00:46 |

schestowitz | Chips_B_Malroy: OK, I see now.... | Dec 06 00:47 |
schestowitz | Well, it's not an article worth recommending to people, but it does show Microsoft is VERY afraid about margins | Dec 06 00:48 |
schestowitz | It will try to kill ARMbooks rather than join them | Dec 06 00:48 |
schestowitz | Microsoft breaks, it doesn't compete | Dec 06 00:48 |
schestowitz | "We need to slaughter Novell before they get stronger….If you’re going to kill someone, there isn’t much reason to get all worked up about it and angry. You just pull the trigger. Any discussions beforehand are a waste of time. We need to smile at Novell while we pull the trigger." -Jim Allchin, Microsoft's Platform Group Vice President | Dec 06 00:48 |
Chips_B_Malroy | yes, thats why I posted it here | Dec 06 00:49 |
Chips_B_Malroy | at least they posted some prices, and some of their thinking | Dec 06 00:50 |
Chips_B_Malroy | but I find it odd, that M$ pushes windows embedded CE on ARM rather than the newer Moble, which is supposed to also run on ARM | Dec 06 00:51 |

shreddar | Lately, I've been thinking about why there is legitimate dislike for MS. | Dec 06 05:06 |
shreddar | It's easy to get confused and think maybe it's just *my* problem. | Dec 06 05:06 |
shreddar | It's help that they hire people post on the internet to help give the impression. | Dec 06 05:08 |
shreddar | Especially when there are better alternative available. | Dec 06 05:09 |
shreddar | Right now there is a movement toward cheaper computers. | Dec 06 05:10 |
shreddar | And MS is strategizing to try and make them useless so people spend more. | Dec 06 05:12 |
shreddar | They want there business to stay in the high end but everyone is grabbing for the low end. | Dec 06 05:12 |
shreddar | When customers want something but a company is using all it's power to prevent them from getting it then it's clear to me that the dislike is justified. | Dec 06 05:15 |
shreddar | About 5 or 6 years (I can't remember) ago I bought XP and I wanted it to be miles ahead of 98. | Dec 06 05:17 |
shreddar | With the price I expected it to be like something out of Lawnmower Man or something. | Dec 06 05:18 |
shreddar | (I had to pay for the retail version because I bought a $200 PC off ebay without the install disk) | Dec 06 05:19 |
cubezzz | Windows is garbage | Dec 06 05:19 |
cubezzz | it was always garbage, back from the very start | Dec 06 05:19 |
cubezzz | when it was a task switcher on top of MS DOS | Dec 06 05:20 |
shreddar | I payed a extra $100 for XP. (half the cost of my ebay PC) | Dec 06 05:20 |
shreddar | and that was the cheapest I could get it. | Dec 06 05:21 |
amarsh04 | I'd be inclined to say that having an ide controller controlling 2 drives when it can only really control one at a time (unlike scsi), is garbage | Dec 06 05:21 |
cubezzz | amarsh04, you can put one of them in a USB 2.0 external box | Dec 06 05:21 |
cubezzz | but there's only so much bandwidth | Dec 06 05:22 |
shreddar | Anyways I thought it was going to be waaayyyy faster and waaaayyy more user friendly. | Dec 06 05:22 |
shreddar | I wasn't | Dec 06 05:22 |
shreddar | it wasn't | Dec 06 05:22 |
cubezzz | it was slower right? | Dec 06 05:23 |
cubezzz | slower than windows 2000 | Dec 06 05:23 |
amarsh04 | no usb2 on this machine... so I'll put the optical disk on the second ide controller | Dec 06 05:23 |
shreddar | It was about the same as 98 as far as I could tell. | Dec 06 05:23 |
cubezzz | my first Amiga 500 HD was an external SCSI | Dec 06 05:23 |
cubezzz | expensive though | Dec 06 05:23 |
shreddar | But this PC was newer than the one that had 98 on it. | Dec 06 05:23 |
amarsh04 | this machine has 1 agp (radeon 9200se), 3 pci (sound, network, wide scsi) and 2 usb 1.1 ports | Dec 06 05:24 |
amarsh04 | old tech | Dec 06 05:24 |
cubezzz | so it was the same speed on a faster box :) | Dec 06 05:24 |
shreddar | So newer PC + newer Window = same speed. | Dec 06 05:24 |
shreddar | And the UI had hardly changed from 98. | Dec 06 05:25 |
amarsh04 | back in a few, shutting down | Dec 06 05:25 |
cubezzz | I'm not even sure what to buy for laptop, except tougbook | Dec 06 05:25 |
*amarsh04 has quit (Read error: 54 (Connection reset by peer)) | Dec 06 05:26 | |
cubezzz | SCSI is 3x the price though | Dec 06 05:26 |

shreddar | When I decided to learn Linux in order to avoid this waisting another $100 I really didn't know about all the vender lock-in and applications barrier to entry crap. | Dec 06 05:31 |
shreddar | That's when I started to really dislike MS. | Dec 06 05:32 |
cubezzz | there's a long list of crap which stretches back to the 70's | Dec 06 05:32 |
cubezzz | I knew the Unix based systems were better since the 80's | Dec 06 05:35 |
cubezzz | Sun4 systems were doing stuff in the late 80's that windows 7 can't do today | Dec 06 05:35 |
shreddar | Luckily computers are much cheaper than back then. Even if they come with Windows because OEM's are pushing for lower licensing rates in order to get the costs down. | Dec 06 05:39 |
shreddar | When MS threatens to cut features or raise the price/rates OEM's point to Linux. | Dec 06 05:40 |
shreddar | OEM's and customers | Dec 06 05:41 |

*amarsh04 is back with sucessfully swapped drives | Dec 06 05:53 | |
shreddar | I think it was a OEM disk because it wouldn't work. | Dec 06 05:53 |

amarsh04 | much, much better getting the cd drive onto the secondary ide controller | Dec 06 05:56 |
*shreddar_ is now known as shreddar | Dec 06 05:57 | |
cubezzz | amarsh04, why not put the cd drive external... just put a USB 2.0 card in there | Dec 06 05:57 |
amarsh04 | no free pci slots cubes, one has a soundblaster live!5.1 model 0220, second has a dpt2044w scsi card, third has a realtek 8139 nic | Dec 06 05:58 |
amarsh04 | if someone puts out a combination usb/ethernet card, I'd use that, although I can still use the w95osr2 on the scsi disk with the installed hardware | Dec 06 05:59 |
amarsh04 | the last version of seamonkey that supported w95 was released in the last 12 months, after I had managed to get all the hardware including usb drives recognised and working in w95 | Dec 06 06:01 |
shreddar | I think with each upgrade it has been more and more obvious that the new features aren't anything put in for the users benefit. Until now where it's almost impossible to ignore. | Dec 06 06:03 |
shreddar | Vista was the straw that broke the camels back. | Dec 06 06:04 |
shreddar | It'll be hard for MS to undue what Vista has done to their PR. | Dec 06 06:07 |
cubezzz | well a rather bigger problem is the stores are all selling windows and mac | Dec 06 06:08 |
cubezzz | but for desktop or tower, you can get barebones so no big deal | Dec 06 06:08 |
cubezzz | only with laptop or netbook you will have trouble getting no os machines | Dec 06 06:08 |
shreddar | People tend to skip over non-PC's when it comes to looking at computer sales. | Dec 06 06:11 |

cubezzz | oh, DVR then | Dec 06 06:12 |
cubezzz | Tivo is no good | Dec 06 06:12 |
cubezzz | not sure what to suggest there | Dec 06 06:13 |
shreddar | You have all of those Symbian based cell phones. (Cell phones far outnumber PCs) | Dec 06 06:16 |
shreddar | Now you have OSX and Linux based platforms like Maemor and Android. | Dec 06 06:17 |
shreddar | As more people get new phones I expect smart phone to outnumber PC's aswell. | Dec 06 06:18 |
shreddar | Chrome OS when it comes out will obviously not be dual boot like standard linux distros. | Dec 06 06:19 |
shreddar | The netbooks built for it can't possibly run Windows on them as well. | Dec 06 06:20 |
tessier | I really want one of those new ARM based netbooks | Dec 06 06:20 |
shreddar | It'll basecally be another type of device a net book. Hey you know what I think they should call these computers? | Dec 06 06:22 |
shreddar | Netputers | Dec 06 06:22 |

*tessier doesn't follow it | Dec 06 06:28 | |
cubezzz | no, it's world-wide | Dec 06 06:29 |
cubezzz | Ireland had two periods in it's history where people starved to death | Dec 06 06:35 |
*shreddar is going to sleep soon | Dec 06 06:35 | |
cubezzz | one major factor was the population, concentrated on a relatively small land mass | Dec 06 06:35 |
cubezzz | and of course the potato blight, monoculture... people were mainly growing potatoes on smaller and smaller parcels of land | Dec 06 06:36 |
cubezzz | there was a mass exodus, and currently the populaton of Ireland is about 60% of it's peak | Dec 06 06:36 |

*shreddar has quit ("sleeep") | Dec 06 06:38 | |
cubezzz | now famine is one reason for starvation | Dec 06 06:38 |
cubezzz | so is over-population | Dec 06 06:38 |
cubezzz | this is generally true | Dec 06 06:39 |
cubezzz | no birth control, AIDs, lack of infastructure... | Dec 06 06:39 |
cubezzz | and it just seems harder to do things in Africa | Dec 06 06:40 |
cubezzz | colder countries tend to do better | Dec 06 06:40 |
DaemonFC | anyone care to guess why there is a button under the power button on my computer that makes the monitor shut off and unable to turn back on? | Dec 06 06:54 |
DaemonFC | I was freaking out thinking that it was damaged or something and found out it was just my cat brushing over that button | Dec 06 06:55 |
amarsh04 | maybe the power button is actually a "standby" button | Dec 06 06:55 |
DaemonFC | this little button kills the monitor and then you can't make it turn back on without holding the power button in to force the computer off, then switching the power supply off and back on | Dec 06 06:56 |
DaemonFC | if you just turn it off and on after hitting that button, the monitor won't turn back on | Dec 06 06:57 |
amarsh04 | sounds like it turns it off until the whole system is turned off and back on again | Dec 06 06:57 |
DaemonFC | yeah, but not just off and on | Dec 06 06:58 |
DaemonFC | you have to unplug it or flip the PSU switch off and on | Dec 06 06:58 |
DaemonFC | then turn the system back on | Dec 06 06:58 |
DaemonFC | I'm calling it the Practical Joke Button | Dec 06 06:59 |
