People here are smart enough not to use that crappy Ubuntu in any form. Alpha, Beta, or Release. Ubuntu is still the same crap. Doesn't run the popular software programs out there. Most reject Ubuntu as garbage.

I came acrosss this article by Randall Kennedy at InfoWorld. Just thought it is interesting about that piece of crap Ubuntu.
View 9 Replies View Relatedthe main audience is "Vista" users. People who already spent a lot of money for an operating system, which they do want to use now. Ubuntu has a clear right of existence in it's area, but not in this group. If you like it better, fine. But don't try to spread your "religion" here when someone asks for help about a Vista problem.
View 9 Replies View Relatedwhen vista came out everyone was trying to escape by getting xp... then they started using ipods, iphones, MAC OSX, even crappy Linux! Then windows 7 came out and everyone is trying to get rid of the crap OS named vista. The vista infection still exists... but it will die very soon...

Just sharing an experience. These ReadyBoost usb thumb drives seem to be a real hit and miss thing. I just bought a Patriot 16GB Xporter XTBoost usb thumb drive. I tried it on one computer running Vista Ultimate x64 and the machine just kept trying to find a driver for it but never succeeded in mounting it.
I tried it on another computer running VU x86 and it came right up and let me configure it for ReadyBoost. I then booted into a VU x64 installation on that same computer and it configured it for storage fine but failed it for ReadyBoost.
the title would be correct if it read: Ballmer says Vista is a 'crap in progress' read more crappy news about vista crap here

View 9 Replies View RelatedCut the crap: classic is slower than aero (*) Ahhh yes.. educating the vistaboys once more.. the cluless mvps and vista-trolls alike. What can I do.. its so ironic that I, who think vista is a bucket of crap, know more than most fanboys about their OS. So here is the lesson of the day:
(*) Classic is slower than aero on machines that are aero glass capable. This is a clear fact that so many have gotten wrong is hilairious. Even tech geeks give this as one of their tips to make vista faster.
If your card doesnt support aero then classic is as slow as with the aero basic theme, and that means absolutly NO acceleration (compared to XP that DID have GDI acceleration that was lighning fast!) But its not faster with classic theme. Its slower........
I'll be damned if Vista insists on biting me after every damn update! Does MS even test this crap or simply pass it by the testers desk? I get things calmed a bit then another update and I'm losing text and the cursor has an epileptic fit. This is a systemic situation starting last November to present as things were fine till they updated something. I've spoken with users from private community to DOD and they all report same.

View 5 Replies View RelatedI was able to delete MovieMaker, PhotoGallery, Games/etc crap folders which are inaccessible or @least undeletable for normal people. I can delete Windows itself, of course won't ever do that, but theoretically I defeated every shiled that prevents normal people to fully control their "assets". My point is not to brag about it or advertise pointless actions. I am just happy I own this laptop & every bit of harddisk except Bootsector (which I can still penetrate with special binary tools).
Things people think can't be done, can be done if you have brains. Also since I hate WinLiveMail and all Live applications, I forced regular WinMail to work under WIndows7 RC; I am sure when Windows7 comes out I won't be bothering with LiveMail horrendous crapware. WinMail will work here, ideally I want OutlookExpress but... there's a technical problem that prevente dme from forcing it run under Windows7 (too long to explain). Or I might simply start using Outlook which's been idle in my MSOffice2007,except it's too bloated and makes me feel bad about losing good old OE. So folks, you can access and delete things, dont ask me how b/c Microsoft who runs these forums will not appreciate, I just can do whatever.... it's my laptop after all.

They changed the name of Ubuntu because of legal issues. Here is the real link if you want to know about the INFERIOR OS that was called Ubuntu.

Ubuntu, it is generally well known, as being behind Windows Vista or 7 in the sales department, possibly on a scale of about 50-1. Normally, sales indicate popularity on a product. We can also assume from these figures that volume of sales could also indicate a certain quality of that product.
Therefore, on that assumption, the 50-1 deficit that Ubuntu lags behind in the sales department, is possibly not even the 2nd best nor even the 3rd or 4th best OS come to think of it. I therefore pondered on this question. Why on earth should I settle for second best, let alone third or fourth best? If they can afford it, most people in life want the best. That is why I will be buying Windows 7 this month...........
It seems that people who troll here have nothing better to do. They think Ubuntu is the greatest product since sliced bread. Yet they come here day after day, trying to get people to switch to that inferior product. Ubuntu is for nerds. The reason they come here is they can't use Ubuntu so they do the next best thing. Come to the vista group and try to get people to convert. Most people are smart enough to see through all that crap. People want to use their Windows Vista or Windows XP. They don't need or want some stupid piece of crap like Ubuntu.

View 8 Replies View RelatedAlias is getting a big hard on ( well for Alias it's big, but in the scheme of things 1 inch isn't much) about the new release of that INFERIOR Opetating System Ubuntu, Spicy Sphincter or whatever it's called. One thing for sure, Ubuntu is WORTHLESS for 99.999% of the population out there because Ubuntu doesn't run any of their software. Alias is the Ubuntu Marketing Department and Alias is a lost mental soul. He believes that he can convert users to that piece of crap when in reality
View 4 Replies View RelatedUbuntu knows that almost everyone hates Ubuntu and refused to run that piece of crap, so they pulled out all stops and they gave Alias the green light to step up marketing their INFERIOR product. Alias is the Marketing Department for Ubuntu. We will continue to get daily count-down posts because will all the money they are paying Alias (NOTHING), he came up with brilliant strategy. Blanket the Vista Forum with a daily count down of their release of their next INFERIOR product.

View 4 Replies View RelatedAlias is quite a two face. Shame on the corporations making money, while he yachts it away on monies made installing Ubuntu. ITN News: MADRID - Air pollution has long been a fact of life in Spanish cities, but scientists now say it is not just smog that chokes people as they walk to work or stroll through the park. A new study has found the air in Madrid and Barcelona is also laced with atleast five drugs - most prominently cocaine.
The Superior Council of Scientific Investigations, a government institute, said on its Web site Thursday that in addition to cocaine, they found trace amounts of amphetamines, opiates, cannabinoids and lysergic acid - a relative of LSD - in two air-quality control stations, one in each cities. With the amount of WEED Alias smokes and the drugs in the air, Alias' brain has been fried. No wonder why Ubuntu does well in Spain, they are too stoned to know any better. My mom has recently returned from France & Spain, and is not too impressed. Homeless, poor and one woman tried to snatch my mom's purse in daylight. Congratulations Alias. Yours is a truly developed country.
I told you, Ubuntu is the future and don't you forget it. Five years I give it! Then it will rule the world. Just look at this wonderful reviews.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI just had a motherboard go south on an AthlonXP 2200+ machine. So, I removed the hard drive thinking I would have to reinstall Ubuntu on its new machine, an AthlonXP 3000+ machine with a different video card, MB, NIC in a different PCI slot and a fax modem in a different PCI slot. So, I fired up the computer and didn't hit F11 soon enough to boot from the Ubuntu CD and much to my surprise, Ubuntu loaded as if nothing had happened.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI thought I would download the new Ubuntu 8.04 and give it a try because all the Ubuntu nut jobs were saying how cool Ubuntu is with their new release. I installed Ubuntu on my machine. I tried Open Office Spreadsheet. I thought I would try to enter a Macro then run it. I then had to install Java to be able to run a macro. If I didn't know that I needed to use Synaptic to figure out how to get the Java update, I would be screwed along with many others who try this crap. Just FYI
OK, so Java installs. BFD. It works but it isn't that good. Now, lets play some music. I navigated to bobrivers.com to play a tune. I was prompted to install some more updates. Fine. Did that. The install went OK. Then I had to install a couple more updates. That went fine. Now I clicked on the song to play and the page just froze.
No wonder why Ubuntu is such a piece of crap. Can't play a simple tune from a web page. Now in Vista, I could navigate right to the page, play the song and I would be as happy as a clam in a whorehouse.
