Reply to What about an Apple OS for non-Apple PC's? in WinCustomize Talk WinCustomize Forums

i hope you didn't aim that at me, travis.. i agree that they make good software, and in pointing out the frivolous lawsuits, i'm saying everybody just wants a peice of the pie 'cause they feel left out of the loop. this bull about them blocking out their competetors from having a place in the windows enviroment- that's absolute crap. windows gives you the option to uninstall media player if you don't wnat to use it, and windows comes bundled with real player and quicktime as alternative

eer.. ack. forgot to mention: at least with certain software, in my case norton, if you found someone's addie say in one of those server logs, and tried to connect to it, it would simply block you out of the common ports. if someone really want's to get in, they'll get in. but common firewall software tries to keep out the usual riff raf and spywear bull.

just look what china's new space program has done for their country's morale. the earth has for the most part been conquered and explored. people are sitting around idly getting bored and declaring war on each other. the curiousity that fires people up in exploring a vastly unknown medium creates jobs, patriotism, enthusiasm, and begins to wake people up. what if we discovered life on anothe planet? i bet it'd be like grabbing 7 billion people and shaking sense into them. it'd make em w

i'm wondering why Microsoft hasn't decided to build Microsoft computers. they did it with Xbox, they could do it with a pc. unless, of course, because its just another reason for every company in the world to try and sue them for a peice of the profit. (it does get deeper then that, but i still think if they did it right - the way apple has, they could avoid law suits and make very streamlined, stable, and powerful systems)

we've already developed alternate fuels for cars. one such i know of is derived from corn oil. when you need more fuel, you grow more corn. its being fought, of course, by the oil industry. if politics werent so wrapped up in oil, these alternate ideas might be gaining some steam. lukily car manufacturers ARE proceeding with a government plan to develope cars that get 75mpg by 2010 or something like that. Hybrid cars, available now, get very high milage and electric cars..well, there you go. the

Reply to MixiVista - Dual monitor software in WinCustomize Talk WinCustomize Forums

that's right. hydravision is to smooth the operation of dual monitors. check out the applications within windows, such as trying to install additional windows programs from your control panel and see what options it gives you. there is definitly a way that the OS will give you the ability to swap desktops, and even task bars, as if you're using multiple monitors. its actually a very smooth, stable feature.

well, XP has little issues with Athlons.. along the lines of it falling asleep into..well, a coma.. also when it DOES come up from a sleep/hibernation, silly plug and play devices will stop working. so i just leave this machine on and turn the monitor off.. (and every now and then i check my fan speeds to make sure they arn't about to die out on me suddenly!).. my laptop, i hibernate.
