Your right, they should stop innovating in new markets because you don't like MS...boohoo!
XBox runs on the NT kernel...i've never had a blue screen. |

| I'll have to see this work with a couple of million people logged on to belive its the real deal rather than vaporware. |

#3 well it exists, whether it is bought/deployed is another question...i see grim predictions, but it's not relating to Microsoft, just cable companies and their lack of innovation. Plus, most cable companies developed their own DVR instead of licensing TIVO...so that trend might continue.
#4 I don't follow your point, are you saying that the NT Kernel is extremely stable because it an evolution developed by the same architects that did VMS? humor |

| No, he hired the architects of VMS...your definition of "ripped off" is not in the plane of reality. |

Ultimate TV was MS satellite tivo-ish system...which rocks and i'm so pissed they discontinued it. MCE is great, but boy do I miss the dual tuners and uncompressed video (streams the sat stream to disk instead of encoding it into wmv or mpg).
MS TV is designed for cable companies that want to deploy more interactive set top boxes. It includes stuff like guide management, alerts, VOD, etc. humor |

#10 Yeah, that's how companies apply innovation to a market. They try to build bigger and better things and push the limits of technology.
Linux is a clone of Windows...and it's waaaay behind. So don't talk to me like you don't understand the statement above...or maybe you just don't understand rational thought. They didn't "tweak" VMS, your blurbs of falicy have no ounce of truth. humor |

"Linux is as much a clone of Windows as Windows is of Unix. "
Your insane...that comment is completely meaningless and not close to true. "You could argue Windows NT is a clone of OS/2 much better than you could Linux being a clone of Windows... " Maybe because it was developed by the same company...hmmm. "Way behind? That may be your opinion... but certainly isn't fact. " Hardware support, application support, user interface, GUI performance, clustering, ease of manageability, etc., etc. It's a fact. If your saying Linux is close to the Windows in these areas...please respond. "I'm disappointed in the quality of your posts! You used to make sense..." It does make sense to some people I suppose...but I'm a little flustered into the BS (not u particularly) on the forums...so maybe i'm a little hostile. humor |
