I must say that :gasp: I've grown :ONHNO!: accustomed to the playtoy interface of WindowsXP This was connectix, before MS bought them... I love VPC5!!!

Alien Junior Member Netherlands 269 Posts	Posted - 14 Apr 2003 : 01:50:33 I love it too, because it runs OS/2 and NetBSD/i386... :P As for Windows, I stick to 2000 Pro, pretty much the only acceptable one of the bunch. They can keep their XP with the teletubbies interface. We'll have to wait and see what Windows 2003 looks like, though. We're getting the developer preview in May. ,xtG .tsooJ -- who \| grep -i blonde \| date cd ~; unzip; touch; strip; finger mount; gasp; yes; uptime; umount sleep

Its the first thing I do, along with returning the start bar to 'classic' view. Gets you about a 10% speed increase :) Jobf. http://jobf.kicks-ass.org

It almost, but not quite, looks like OS X. -------------------------- Give your dreams a chance.™ - Apple in the mid '90s Warrior maclover5 68k Macintosh Liberation Army Number of 68ks Liberated: 7 Number of Contraband (PPC) Liberated from the Dumpster: 1
cory5412 68KMLA Comrade-in-Arms USA 4679 Posts	Posted - 14 Apr 2003 : 06:08:53 I already have had .NET 2k3 server preview for awhile... it may be just because it's a server software, but it's muich prettier (only has classic view.) I also can't wait for the normal Windows 2003... it just seems a bit early for MS to go away from 2002, b etter known as XP last few versions it took MS about 2-3 years.. XP is less than one year old. I'm hoping I can get 2k, and find Rhapsody to put on there Official 68k videographer Official MLA TourGuide

cory5412 68KMLA Comrade-in-Arms USA 4679 Posts	Posted - 14 Apr 2003 : 19:53:40 Yeah... I actually like Windows NT4 for anything a 486 and above... runs great on almost anything from a 486/66 with 24 MB of RAM to an Athlon 700MHz with 320 MB of RAM....
