          Thank you for that reasoned argument. I always like it when a moron backs their specious arguments with well rounded and cogent arguments.

            New computers come out with quite big HDDs these days... I'd say it's gonna take like 1% of their capacity. Please remind me size of WinXP SP1 and size of average hard disc in those days? Just curious (and lazy to look it up :P)

              I agree, but its the problem with loading, disk sizes increases but does the bandwidth increase? nope so loading stating up or whatever your doing = slow:| XPSP1 was about 280 Mb I think:~

                IIRC I was 2 or 3 gigs out of 60. 98 was 500megs??? out of 4gigs. Win31 was really brutal though, 20-25mb out of 120.

                Otherwise [Microsoft is] toast in the long term no matter how much money they've got. They would be already if the Linux community didn't have it's head so firmly up it's own command line buffer that it looks like taking 15 years to find the desktop. -- Matthew Faithfull

                  Wow, once they ship SP1 for 64bit I may have a customer or two who will upgrade.

                  A human being should be able to change a diaper, plan an invasion, butcher a hog, conn a ship, design a building, write a sonnet, balance accounts, build a wall, set a bone, comfort the dying, take orders, give orders, cooperate, act alone, solve equations, analyze a new problem, pitch manure, program a computer, cook a tasty meal, fight efficiently, die gallantly. Specialization is for insects. - -Lazarus Long

                  Chris; I also use several Lazarus Long quotes in my signature blocks. He's great...
