Well my ubuntu 9.04 laptop boots up in 22 seconds and is using about 250 Mb ram. Vista on the same machine takes 4 minutes and 30 seconds before it reduces the hard drive access enough to let it have enough resources to give me control of my mouse pointer. And its uses over 1 gig of ram. '7' I'm told boots faster and uses less ram than Vista.
But I'll run down our City Mall butt naked if it beats Ubuntu. Now THAT would be surprising.
Hi,
@stefcep
Been using Windows 7 and Ubuntu 9.10 on a dual boot system. Windows 7 is approximately 3 seconds faster in booting after GRUB.
Have a nice run!!
Not really a Windows fanboy, but ya all should upgrade your pc's at least to a dual core, with a modern graphics card. The old 486's went out years ago, about the same time Commodore declared bankrupcy. To all you Apple Mac fanboys you should all upgrade to at least a 486, that way you would only be about 17 to 18 years behind the PC computers.
Windows 7 is nice, almost reminds me of the Amiga, only years advanced. Windows 7 is where the Amiga should of been.
