    Can't say I care one way or another, however it is customary in the lounge that the subject line end with 'OTD' when posting daily about a specific subject.

        God is a believe - reality like Windows 9 does not exist is not a belief, windows 9 which is built on rumors is a belief

        If you're trying to convince me of your beliefs I'm an old man and have my own. If you're trying to teach me you've not proved your point sufficiently. If you're just being an asshole, I understand we all have off days.

            you seem to care a lot about what they are calling the next version and what everyone else is calling it. Prior to the release of 8 people were calling it 8 despite the fact it hadn't been officially named and did that change the world? really if that is the only thing you have to worry about then just be thankful and stop trying to wind us up. I cannot understand why someone with the experience you claim to have would give a fig what they call the next version

            You cant outrun the world, but there is no harm in getting a head start Real stupidity beats artificial intelligence every time.

            I care about credibility of programmers, who I am learning clearly have none, and these threads make it easy to show the public that you don't have credibility.

                  No, it wasn't. The pre 95 versions of Windows were a graphics shell which ran on top of DOS - it was DOS with a pretty face and memory management. 95 was different - and better - because it wasn't DOS based.

                    If you know what you are doing in Windows 8, you can do things that you didn't even know where possible, so go to Microsoft Virtual Academy and learn about Windows 8, instead of talking out your ass.

                            DOS was Bill gates first OS, next came Windows 1 and Windows 2, but the public didn't pick it up until windows 3.11 What you said just reinstates what I was saying thank you.

                                          DOS was Bill gates first OS, next came Windows 1 and Windows 2, but the public didn't pick it up until windows 3.11 What you said just reinstates what I was saying thank you.

                                          You should shut up before you display more of your ignorance, you idiot!

                                          If your actions inspire others to dream more, learn more, do more and become more, you are a leader.-John Q. Adams
                                          You must accept one of two basic premises: Either we are alone in the universe, or we are not alone in the universe. And either way, the implications are staggering.-Wernher von Braun
