Ok, jag formulerar om, Windows leder utvecklarna.
Och Windows leder inte utvecklingen, Apple låter numera sina användare ta del av utvecklingen. Bättre så?
Är det dumt av Apple att släppa sin proprietära hållning och låta användaren få valfrihet menar du? Eftersom du vet allting så kan du gärna få tala om exakt varför Apple har bytt plattform (gärna utan att återigen påpeka eventuella brister i Windows).
Men ge upp. Vista ar en kopia av OS X, Microsoft har fortfarande inte en journalforandefilsystem.
Sakerheten i Windows for multianvandare ar i stortsett obefintlig. TCP/IP stacken ar langt ifran RFC kompatibel.

Varfor Apple bytte plattform? For att PowerPC processorerna inte kunde hanga med for Apples behov. T.ex. kom det ju aldrig en G5 Powerbook. Osv osv..

Jo, jag behöver faktiskt defragmentera ett ext3-filsystem, men det går endast om jag konverterar till ext2 först enligt de som kan sina filsystem.
Däremot har du för en gångs skull nästan rätt, de står emot fragmentering bra, ända tills disken har varit nästan full ett tag. Då blir det rörigt.
Nej, under normala forhallande behover du aldrig defragmentera ext3 fs. Aldrig. Och skulle du behova gora det for att du jobbar med extremt manga sma filer (t.ex. mbox variant) eller manga extremt stora filer (t.ex. video filer som tas borts, laggs till redigeras) sa har du ju uppenbarligen inte valt ratt filsystem. ext3 ar inte designat for det, men det gar fortfarande att tvinga en defragmentering med t.ex. repacker.
ReiserFS ar betydligt battre pa detta.

Visst blir både FAT och NTFS fragmenterade emellanåt, men konstigt nog har ingen dött av det. De flesta startar nog en defragmentering innan de går på lunch och så var det bekymret ur världen. Jag tror att ni är ganska få som blir så medtagna att ni blir hatiska mot Microsoft av den anledningen.
Ibland?? Varje Windows maskin behover defragmenteras regelbundet, det finns en hel varld av tredje parts produkter som gor detta at dig, t.ex. diskkeeper. Om det nu inte var ett problem, sa skulle det inte finnas tredje parts produkter for detta.

Jag säger fortfarande: Mac, Linux, Win fungerar, de finns och används, alltså funkar de allihop till det som folk skaffar dem för.

Lite ändrat.
Windows fungerar ju inte som det ska, det ar ju det jag har havdat. Varfor tror du Vista inte har slagit speciellt stort, anvandarna ar trotta pa allt skrap de slager ut fran Redmond. Lika sa med Office 2007.

Episode 6
One of the stranger urban legends that people harbour about geeks is that we have a deep seated enthusiasm for all problems technical - that the thought of a non-booting PC is our equivalent of a three pipe problem and that we're silently chomping at the bit to discover some problem to pit our skills against.
True, I enjoy a challenge as much as the next card-carrying furry tooth with low social skills, but in my case the challenge tends to be more like: "How do I shoot the armoured guy in FEAR using only a pistol, without slowmo, at advanced difficulty?"
And as a result it always comes as a little bit of a disappointment when the Boss rolls up with some 'challenge' for me to have a look at....
"Have I got a problem for you!" the Boss burbles happily.
"I'm not sure, do you?"
"Yes!"
"In that case, it seems you do."
"Don't you want to hear about it?" he asks.
"..."
"It's my daughter's laptop!"
"Your daughter's laptop?"
"Yes."
"So not a work laptop then?"
"No. Well yes, it used to be. It was my old work one which the company sold me."
"But you've only worked here a couple of months..."
"My old company."
"So you want me to look at a machine that's not work related, not for a worker, and didn't even originate here?"
"Yes."
"Sure bring it in - I'm sure we can do something with it," the PFY says. "And your toaster - is that working good too?"
"Why?"
"We may as well fix that at the same time!"
"No, it's fine," the Boss says, missing the sarcasm. "But I will bring the laptop in - although it's not that portable."
"It's a laptop!"
"Yes, but it's heavy."
"How heavy can a laptop be?"
. . .
The next day dawns and the boss drags the machine in. At first glance it looks like your normal ancient oversized laptop (thankfully not one of those awful luggables with a CRT inside) but a closer inspection reveals a machine made in a time when robustness and impressive weight meant something to a manufacturer.
"Honestly, this thing weighs about 35 pounds!” the PFY gasps, levering it up onto his desk. "What's it made of, lead?!"
"I... don't know" the Boss says, still getting his breath back after the walk from the lift.
"Oooh, inbuilt power supply," I say, stroking the case lovingly. "Always good for an extra pound or so - or ten as it's a transformer based one."
"You're joking," the PFY blurts, looking down the vent holes. "Wow!"
"Yeeees," I say, pushing the power button. "Oooooh, A P2 with 2 memory banks containing... 64 Meg."
"A scorcher - oh, and is that the battery warning light?"
"And after just 12 minutes - I bet it's lead acid".
"Or just lead," the PFY nods. "What are you running 98?"
"Windows XP," the Boss replies.
"Slower than a 5 day cricket test is it?"
"I..."
"You should go to Vista."
"So you like Vista?"
"Not really, no. I run a Vista simulator."
"Virtual Server?" the Boss asks.
"Nah, I just turned on all the flashy crap in XP, changed the background image, took some memory out of my box and clocked down the CPU. Then broke Media player. Works like a charm."
"So you don't like it?"
"No. But it has does have one advantage."
"What's that?"
"It causes a clean reinstall of XP which is generally good from a defrag point of view."
"So you're not really suggesting I install Vista?"
"No. Even if you could you shouldn't - not with this baby/"
"So I should keep XP?"
"No."
"Downgrade to 2000?"
"No."
"Windows 98?"
"No."
"95?"
"No."
"What am I supposed to do with it then?"
"Take my advice," the PFY says. “Nail a couple of planks to either side and use it as a bedside table."
"But... I thought you could do something with it."
"Yeah - the bedside table idea!"
"But it's a perfectly good laptop."
"No, it's a craptop - there's a subtle difference."
"What?"
"About 30 pounds."
"But it's perfectly good."
"Okay, tell you what. Pop it on the front seat of your car, wind the window down and take a walk around the block. I'll bet you 50 quid it's still there when you get back!"
"50 quid?" he echoes.
"50 Quid!" the PFY responds, taking the aforementioned sum out of his wallet and handing it to me.
. . . Two hours later . . .
"It was still there wasn't it?" the PFY says, reaching for his cash.
"Yes," the Boss sighs. "But my car stereo and internal door handles weren't. The stereo's useless to anyone as it's coded to the door key - and who the hell needs door handles?"
"It's a strange world," the PFY agrees as the Boss exits Mission Control shaking his head.
"So this is worthless then?" I say, tossing the Boss's car stereo into the bin. "But why did you want the door handles?"
"Just for the chuckle when he gets home."
"I... Oh! ...So that's why you wanted the fuse for the electric windows."
"Electric Windows Vista - just like the real thing!" the PFY smirks, chucking the handles after the stereo.
