I honestly would downgrade to XP, but I've already looked into, and XP doesn't have the drivers I need.

Everything has XP drivers. And if the company refuses to make them, someone out there made them for you :)

I couldnt find the  graphics drivers for my friends laptop. But she doesnt need them.

Yeah I got a laptop, and I need the graphics drivers.

In order to make it through the world one needs some insanity.

Proof? I have had no errors pop up or no blue screen or no random errors come up since I've had it and it's been at least 6 months.


I'm currently using windows 7 on PC but still have vista on laptop. Both are still working flawlessly

Its very simple. Just do a little research.

If I knew the info I could probably find it in a day at most.

The ITs at our school have to tweak these computers beyond belief just to make them function.

Me, Ive gone mac and haven't really gone back...




I mean proof as in a screen cap. or pics.


I can claim, easily claim that Ive never gotten a single kernel panic on this mac.
There is no such thing as peace and there never will be. Peace is a delusion believed by the weak. Gandhi said : "An eye of an eye would leave the whole world blind". So be it because only a blind world can experience the peace that it deserves. But there in lay the sick irony. Who will be able to see this peace? The human species is at war. The enemy walks among us nearly invisible. Only those with true discernment can see them. But only one with discernment and vision can show them to others

You only get nonstop random BSODs on failing hardware. Those are all random reasons, and your school computers prolly have a bad image.

And 2k? Yea they'd happen in 2k, but you just sucked it up and dealt with it.

I rarely ever get a BSOD in XP. Infact, I'd have component failure due to pushing it too hard before I'd get a BSOD....go talk to my fried 6600GT.

I've had no BSODs on W7 yet and i've been using it since Early December. Its pretty much on 24/7 too....restarted maybe a week ago.

Prove that you never have had a single error or bsod in that use period of that machine, but there's really no way so I already know that you're lying.




Dude all public schools are stupid, regardless.

Cant do anything right with a computer?

Well I agree with you right there, they are using that wal-mart 3rd world operating system with that poor, primitive, and proprietary kernel developed by the biggest of software nazis the world has ever experienced, blowing away more money than they are saving money with having to have virus scanner subscriptions,  hurting the pathetic fragile american economy, preventing an end to old technoliges like usb and VGA, relying on IT teams just to maintain each system, using an OS that was stolen, and yeah you are right that isnt right at all, schools should invest in real computers like macs, or switch to a much better OS other than...windows...

If anyone whos stupid it would be people who still think windows is useful, its crap, it sucks, and it has been defied by humanity as being crap.

It was also steve jobs stupidity for being so  naive and giving code to bill gates, which he quickly stole and developed that pile of os crap!

im continuing to poke fun at SSJ because I know that his claim is false.  Even if he is one of the 10% of computer users who dont experience  much issues with windows, its not true when someone says that they've never experienced a BSOD or error message.


MVP is the most important war being fought today...I think xD

I've never experienced an error message in vista or windows 7 yet.

Don't believe me? Go dolphin noise yourself.

I've never had a major problem with Vista.

A few BSoDs here and there, but nothing too bad.. yet.
And I'm still REALLY shaky on trying out the new one.

there are a few antivirus progs that needed rewritten, and one or two small annoyances, but it still is 99% painless.

I'll just wait until the official release and save me (most of) the remaining 1% pain with doing it now. :​P
