Reply to VMWare vs. Virtual PC in WinCustomize News WinCustomize Forums

I must be missing something here. What is the purpose of running Windows inside Windows? If you have 2 different distros, why not put them on separate partitions and boot into them separately? One of my PCs boots 8 different OSs.... It seems to me that running a system natively will always be faster and less buggy than emulation. I can hardly wait for a VirtualPC that will run on my G5. Microsoft says Q2.

It's an Aladdin Stuffit file, Just another form of compression. You can download Stuffit Expander from Aladdin (it's free). Stuffit expander will open .zip files, but I'm not sure if Winzip opens .sit files.

Cheap a$$ brother in WinCustomize Talk WinCustomize Forums

i do a lot of my work on my G4 Mac and I got an iPod and it is the coolest device I have ever seen. It holds tons of mp3s and I also can use it as a FireWire HD to transfer files between Macs. I liked it so much that I got a Windows version to transfer files between my PCs and the one at work. It makes life so much easier. Anyway, I decided to splurge and buy my 10 year old niece a Windows iPod (20G) and I called my brother about it. He said that he doesn't have a FireWire card

I have never had any problems with any Object Desktop components on XP. Anyway, you can always turn it off. You should back up your files every once in a while whether you use OD or not.

Reply to Mac OS X users... in WinCustomize Talk WinCustomize Forums

There is no system tray, but there are menu icons for dial-up, displays, and volume. You can add third-party menus like weather-pop, moon menu, and a really cool one called backlight that lets you run a screensaver as your desktop background. It's kind of like a system tray, but different.....

Reply to Have you seen the new poll? in WinCustomize Talk WinCustomize Forums

Not to be a troll or anything, but have you ever tried a cruddy Motorola? I prefer Macs, I have to admit, but I have 2 Macs and 3 PCs at home and a nice mix at work. Two things I really hate: 1) MacOS users who trash Windows without trying it. 2) Windows users who trash MacOS without trying it. The fact of the matter is that MacOS is better integrated with the hardware and runs more smoothly and efficiently than Windows does on it's hardware. Linux runs better

I'm running OS 10.2 on my Quicksilver 733. Ihave to admit that it kicks the crap out of WinXP on my HP with an Athlon 1.6G. Both machines are maxed out to 1.5G RAM. Photoshop, Illustrator, and even Microsoft Office all run better and faster on my Mac. If Windows were to disappear, I wouldn't care, because I usually run RedHat Linux on my pc anyway.
