Windows 7 – Tail-Waggin’ Fun « Worldstart Blog.

Gotta love what this guy says about Windows… I’ve noticed much of it myself… I used 95 a little bit, but not much, mostly stuck with DOS or 3.1 until I could run 98… ME? BAH! Vista? Media disaster…

I guess at this point I’m looking good at every other version of Windows. I used 3.1, 98, XP and will be using 7 in a few weeks (as soon as I finish building the computer to run it on, that is).

Anyway, I love the whole “Dog and Hydrant” analogy he uses here… It’s great!

I just wanted to announce the creation of a new page. I had a hard time finding an article about booting Linux from within Windows, so even though I found one, this one is a little simpler and should help anyone else who needs it.

By the way, to anyone wondering, I have a triple-boot system now. Windows 98, XP, Slackware Linux. If anyone has suggestions on the new page or questions about dual-booting, I’ve done enough of it, and if I don’t know, I can find out.

Enjoy!

A friend showed me this site today. Just spreading the word a bit.

With Internet Explorer 7 and 8 out and active, there just isn’t a need for version 6 anymore. Version 6 doesn’t support transparencies in images nor does it really fully support full standards-compliant CSS.

Enough rambling. Everyone who has XP needs to upgrade to at least 7. I don’t recommend 8 because it’s slightly unstable in XP. But definitely 7.

…Not! At least not in Windows Me… Has anyone ever heard good things about Me? Has anyone really had good things to say about Me? I certainly haven’t heard any. Anyway, the reason I bring this up is because about 3 years ago (March 2006) I was working part-time at a computer repair place and there was this HP laptop that someone had brought in that had Me on it. I stuck in my utilities mini-CD to run some stuff. That’s when I noticed a slight discrepancy with the size pie. Windows is notorious for getting sizes wrong on a burned CD-R anyway, but this was just ridiculous! The CD has 146 MB of data. And here’s the screenshot of it. Not modified in any way. Straight screen shot.

So, enjoy!
