Re: [ilugd]: M$ PC to watches - Linux Advocacy

[Ambar Roy]

There was a Linux wristwatch announced by some japaneese company. I don't remember, maybe casio! I don't know what happened to that though. About windows crashing and needing reboots. I would like to say that modern windows. Windows 2000 or Windows XP with proper drivers rarely requires reboots. I have run my Win2k machines for weeks at a time. I reboot my windows very very rarely due to a crash nowadays. It is more because of power failures or software updates. I find win2k to be extremely stable. If you must find faults with an OS, it is ok, but at least use a recent version and see for yourself how good windows has actually become. I used to use win98 inside vmware running on linux. Now I use Linux inside vmware running on win2k. Go figure why I would do that.   BTW i still feel that win2k server is a joke. I never run servers with a GUI, so most of my servers are linux.   Ambar   hi guys ( that includes the females too ) well in todays Times Of India (10 Jan 2003 -Fri) there was an article about M$ moving over to watches.Great is'nt it now win-brain-damaged ppl gotta reboot their watches too :) after it has performed some godforsaken illegal operation.Hell I have seen it crash even when i am performing some LEGAL operations.
