I'd like to see the review of how computer knowledge will avoid any viruses.
Don't get THAT crazy. Win8 sucks. Either 1. Call Microsoft and complain until you get a Win7 download, or 2. Try out Linux so you won't have to waste $1500 on a $500 computer desktop. It's free, can runs windows programs through software called Wine, and you can dual boot with Windows. (Even if it sucks, just to try it out.) Plus there are many different Linux distros out there like Ubuntu, Mint (What I use, more classic OS type), etc.
Don't get lost on your way to somewhere important with your so called "Maps." And maybe true 3+ years ago, but not now! In fact, it's the opposite. MANY more Android phones out there now. Much more money to be made, so many more products to be made on Android then ported.
Sweet! Hope it fixes the XOrg failing to start on Linux distros. I've had a problem only once, but it still was scary seeing Linux actually error.
Pro tip: Want a device you can do anything with? Buy an Android device, as you'll always be able to do anything you want with them. Run your own programs, put Ubuntu on them, anything. Much better than any iProduct to boot.
Because we're too complicated for you to figure out and need something dumbed down without the right to own anything?
Because the brand is set up so you can't take your stuff elsewhere, you get tied to their products, you own nothing. Plus it's blatantly overpriced to the point of stupidity. You get the picture?
They aren't, and since all they care about is profit, never will be. You can keep your locked down POS Mac, iPhone, etc. I'll be on my Android Tablet, Phone, and Linux+Win7 Laptop doing real work with free and high quality software. Only an idiot will pay to be locked in to using Apple services OR devices. No freedom, it's like a prison playpen.
Artists use Macs because they're not computer literate. While you look at programmers and IT guys and most run Linux...
You mean a usable UI that has been the standard of every office program the last decade? Right.
And slow? Maybe your computer is just a bug ridden POS. It's quick in Win7, XP, AND Linux Mint for me!
You're just spreading lies. Download and judge for yourself guys, this is just a person that doesn't like BETTER, FREE, FASTER, and OPEN software.
Or just download LibreOffice for normal not-metro-garbage Windows. Much better software, works with .doc, .docx, and does so much more.
Gotta love the Win8 thing though. They will never allow competing open source (AKA better) software on the market. Shame. Oh well, good thing I'll never be fooled in to that crap.
It sucks. I don't understand how some people can defend such a bad UI. Unity, Win8, This debacle. It's all hard to use, overly complicated by simplicity GARBAGE.
Maybe your GPU isn't good enough then?
Linux not stable? What are you smoking? As long as your drivers are stable, the OS will be stable as the binaries are exactly the same for each system!
That definitely gets stupidest comment of the day dude, I'm sorry.
Well since you are on that, and probably don't run Windows 7, or any Linux-based OS, or XP on another computer, it'd also be your only OS for 5 years.
PayPal/Ebay pulled it on themselves when Ebay bought out PayPal. Forcing users to use PayPal for Ebay and in an nutshell only using it to charge 2x the fees over all. F*** em.
I buy a computer, I own it and the right to do anything I pelease to it. That's what the pursuit of happiness is for me. I can put a new operating system on it, or I use it as a door stop. F*** them.
What about all the great Linux OS's like Mint and (Gnome-based) Ubuntu? They have a far better chance of succeeding since google would probably back/modify one of those instead of building their own Linux OS from nothing.
Never said he was a moron, I implied it by asking.
And well, Linux based OS's are everywhere but on personal computers. This is the time where things change. I won't reply here, but in 10 years when we're in a world completely build on linux kernels, remember me.
^Isn't going to change? Are you a moron? When you can get 20% more performance for each game that has a Linux version over a Windows version, PC gamers will eat it up and Linux will gain lots of relevance in the PC world. I'm on Ubuntu right now and have switched MANY people over to it from Windows who LOVE it. Also a few to Linux Mint. I mean I dual boot windows too, that's #1 for sure, but if you don't need Windows only software, you should probably work away from it as the...
If the ads contain malware, you'll only get tracked if you install/allow them to. The browser is a sandbox, and only allows stuff it translates to the page for scripts to use. You apparently don't do much with tech besides comment on specs. I am a programmer. I know how viruses works, how they get on your computer, and that 99.9% are because of the end user being a trained click-through-warnings machine. In fact, the biggest virus out there is Norton. I don't see ANY virus tools o...
