Puppyite’s Review of Windows 7
The newest behemoth out of Redmond is more of the same sh|te from the people who brought you blue screens, fatal errors and GPF (General Principal Fuc~ups).
My new laptop came preinstalled with this mess and what a mess it is. I wouldn’t give two cents for it, luckily I didn’t have to. The price I paid for my laptop didn’t even pay for the hardware so I got mistake #7 from Microsoft free.
This pig starts up slower than a 1950 DeSoto in subfreezing weather and handles the same too. I’d characterize it as ponderous. Even on a brand new laptop with 64bit processor, 2GB RAM and 160GB hard drive.
Talk about busy, this POS is busier than a one armed paper hanger. Updates (a.k.a. crap) are constantly being downloading and installed without even so much as a “by your leave”. Who knows what all the damn thing is up to!
Forget about privacy, every application on your hard drive broadcasts your IP and pesters you constantly in hopes of selling you something or getting more info out of you to sell to marketers.
Don’t expect your hardware to last as long either. Windows 7 hammers the hard drive constantly and the processor pegs out no matter what you’re doing. UGH!
I feel sorry for anyone who has to use this mess on a daily basis. If I had to use Windows I’d choose Windows 98SE over this crud any day.
Oh, I almost forgot to tell you, if you use static IP addresses you won’t be able to network with other computers, not unless you upgrade them to mess #7 too.
Folks, it’s way past time to kick this crap to the curb and step up to a real OS like Linux, Puppy Linux that is!
Everything about how to use and enjoy Puppy Linux can be found at the Puppy Linux FAQ. There is no easier way to get started with Linux than by visiting the Puppy Linux FAQ and trying Puppy Linux for yourself. www.puppylinuxfaq.org
