Sep. 22nd, 2004 01:17 pmI had to install Windows XP here at work... it boots a lot faster than the old windows... hmmm... lets see if they fixed some of the bugs which have been there since Windows 3.11
nope... still broken...
Here is a simple test to prove that you are just using a copy of windows 3.11 that has been "fancied up"
open your calculator in standard mode...
do you see the square root button? (it's the one marked sqrt right under the 'C') it's a pretty button isn't it... if you were using it you would probably want your calculator to be in scientific mode so you have all the other nifty buttons...
so put your calculator in scientific mode...
now press the squareroot button.. it's right over... um... uh... yeah...
anyone want to tell be about how great this OS is? SO great they haven't been able to fix a bug that has been there since 1991.
if only I could open visio documents with unix...

Sep. 22nd, 2004 04:06 pmso the new crap was really pissing me off so I figured out to to put it in windows 98 format. it also made everything a lot faster it seems
I download the latest copy of ssh and put it in a folder I created.
then I click on my computer, then the C drive.
I get a warning at this point telling me not to go into this folder as it is reservered and I could mess things up... kind of like the one you got with 98 when you tried to go into the "win" directory.
I stare at the screen blankly...
it's...
the...
C:...
drive...
Where the hell else are you supposed to put shit? Last I checked my ass didn't hold data!! (however when ass-drive technology comes out I am going to be first in line)
Really now.. how do you people use this crap? I did figure out where the name windows comes from. after working with it for a few hours a window is what I am going to toss it out of...
...and I am on the 6th floor...
