I don't see what is so "innovative" about selling, say, a 1.0Ghz chip one week and calling it things like "breakthrough", "cutting edge", "all new", "totally redesigned", etc.. then the following week introducing the same exact chip, only with a slighly higher voltage applied to its master clock ocillator and a few pin re-assignments to make it incompatible with all previous versions, and describe it in those exact same terms.
Hahaha! That's why I overclock! Isn't it the same principal, just upping the voltage and oscillator speed? Silly rabbit...
:crazy:
In all reality, I've never had any major Windows issues since the Windows 95 days. Yeah, Microsoft is the big monopoly, but they eventually made it easy as far as the simplicity of setting up a PC, loading drivers, and installing applications. I've taken a few wacks at Linux, and find it to be terribly confusing with all its dependencies when trying to get something installed. In my opinion, Linux is only popular because it is free.
In the past, I've also dealt with BeOS and IBM OS/2. Both were excellent operating systems, but due to a lack of consumer support, both have virtually disappeared, just like the AmigaOS. If anything is to blame for the lack of variety, it's the stupidity of the end user who buys into the monopoly with the reasoning that everyone else is doing it, so it must be good.
