*cough*

 

anyways...just bumping the post up

The only thing I have to ask is: Did they change the telnet thing on server from NTLM? That's the only thing that pisses me off about 2000. I also like the slick look of the new Windows Operating system. I may have to buy it once it comes out.

Once whistler comes out, everybody have to install it, and then whistler and microsoft are gonna take over the world!

 

har

 

(im trying to say its gonna be a hit)

hmmmm...let's see here....

win2k works almost perfect (nothing is perfect) on my machine BUT those not work nearly as it should on my friends computer (or some others computer by that matter).

SO, what is the deal? well, hardware!

yes, whistler comes out works nice on my computer again BUT guess what? new hardware WILL always mean NEW problems, which means...Whistler is going to be more stable and faster (GOD, I HOPE SO IT DOES)

BUT, there will always BE PROBLEMS!

am i right, anyone?

Reading this is funny **** :-).

 

Cool with all these pictures.

 

one thing i would like to know.

How about drivers for units, do u use 2kdrivers, or will it x-cept some 98/ME drivers to.

----------------------------------------

So lets say my scsi MUSTEK scanner will work.

Thx ;-)

2000 drivers. You can only use 9x drivers if they are WDM. So ONLY use 9x drivers if the download page states so.

Whistler damn well better have a Classic Desktop option. All this frilly stuff seems like it was just made to appeal to Mac users.

[jdulmage 0]

this thread is still going? please, give me a break

[Psyphon 0]

anak1 - It does have a Classic option.

I'm running 2416 now.

 

It owns me, if only i had more ram though.

I think i'm able to overcome all the sloppy beta coding and ram munching behaviour with raw power at the moment, so that's ok.

[pimpin_228 0]

So win xp is a ram hog

[pimpin_228 0]

damn whistler looks sweet as **** man i want it

[pimpin_228 0]

Okay no one replies.

[Four and Twenty 0]

it is not to bad on ram. I have outlook 2k and a few ie processes and a dozen programs in my tray and it is eating 164 megs of ram. That is not to bad is it? I would say that a power user with win xp will want like 384 megs of ram or more cause it is very easy to use over 300 megs.

SO a stick of 512 and you'll be set
