Funny ... MAC vs. Windows

[deadtrend1]

Microsoft's new operation system is called Vista and is scheduled to be released by the end of 2006. Gates is at the CES in Vegas and gave a preview of the new features and benefits of the new OS.

Some Apple fan took Gates' speech and pasted it over a video of what the the current Macintosh OS has been able to do for a year or two.

Just remember you're seeing Apple, but hearing Windows.

It was funny. After watching that video, I started to recall all the old os systems I used to play around with. From windows for workgroups V. 3.11, when you booted up into "Program manager" Making boot disks just to get enough memory available to play games. Then there was IBM's OS2 warp (IBM's version of windows)...crap!

Me and my buddy are the only ones that know how to navigate through DOS, and remember Dosshell (kinda equal to a early version of file cabnet or windows explorer. Hell, even using online services such as computserve's WOW, and Prodigy.

Boy, I may have been a geek back then. But, during school while everyone was having a hard time playing Oregon Trail, I was getting out of class to wire up the school network and play in the tech room ... :)

yet summore proof that bill rips his windows code from apple/macintosh, the original code for either 3.1 or 95 was stolen from on of the early mac versions. and same here dead trend i took my time trying to figure out how to use the dos prompt but it gets damn annoying the way you have to enter file and folder names. bill gates should die and stop making winblows versions and linux should overtake them all!!! muhahaha!!!!
