El Sitherino Posted August 12, 2005 Posted August 12, 2005 Aye. Suddenly disabling all javascript was a kinda poor act on MS' side Exactly, if IE suddenly became more secure than FireFox or any other browser, I'd use it. But so far what I'm seeing is they're doing exactly what they did with IE6. Just prettying up the looks and saying "yeah it's more secure, don't you see the pretty features? That means it's more secure. The prettiness scares away girlshy-hacker types."
TiE23 Posted August 12, 2005 Author Posted August 12, 2005 About the crashes, it responds way better to programs not responding Vista does? Thats good, it sucks being forced to wait for 3 minutes while XP Shuts down a single program, when there could be a way to just "cut it out" and kill it. And uhhh.. thanks for bumping this
El Sitherino Posted August 12, 2005 Posted August 12, 2005 Indeed, I was pissed when they didn't allow instant kill in XP.
Astrotoy7 Posted August 12, 2005 Posted August 12, 2005 The secret coder data police, come to take away your untech niece? I was referring to the german national anthem that was used during Nazi rule, not the DK song, but you knew that anyway...I'll definitely give ie7 a try. The only thing that will make me not use it is if its cumbersome. I like minimalistic/easy to use mtfbwya
El Sitherino Posted August 12, 2005 Posted August 12, 2005 I was referring to the german national anthem that was used during Nazi rule, not the DK song, but you knew that I know, I just felt like being an ass. Plus parody is fun.
Astrotoy7 Posted August 12, 2005 Posted August 12, 2005 So what does Vista mean anyways? Vista is the latin word for "view", like that which you get out of a window... lame huh mtfbwya
El Sitherino Posted August 12, 2005 Posted August 12, 2005 Lame like XP = Xperience. Aye, XPerience was possibly the worst ad campaign I have ever witnessed.
TiE23 Posted August 12, 2005 Author Posted August 12, 2005 Aye, XPerience was possibly the worst ad campaign I have ever witnessed. Thank god I was only 11 when that **** was being thrown around. >_> I dont rember it.
Mex Posted August 12, 2005 Posted August 12, 2005 Aleg, how did you get that beta of vista? I have only have the beta of IE7.
Sabretooth Posted August 13, 2005 Posted August 13, 2005 I just don't get Microsoft's obsession with blue...
Mex Posted August 13, 2005 Posted August 13, 2005 I just don't get Microsoft's obsession with blue... Isn't it meant to "keep you calm" because I think everyone needs it with all those damn errors.
El Sitherino Posted August 13, 2005 Posted August 13, 2005 I just don't get Microsoft's obsession with blue... Sky is blue. Windows let you see the sky. *shrugs* Plus blue is a nice color.
Alegis Posted August 13, 2005 Posted August 13, 2005 Aleg, how did you get that beta of vista? I'm an official longhorn tester now and will get the builds as soon as they're done. Nice to have those contacts Lightblue is nice Lookie lookie senator: http://www.neowin.net/images/news/logos/ms_ie7logo.png
Mex Posted August 13, 2005 Posted August 13, 2005 I didn't notice that, and I read the posts throughoughly. Odd. Must be going blind.
Sabretooth Posted August 14, 2005 Posted August 14, 2005 Sky is blue. Windows let you see the sky. *shrugs* Plus blue is a nice color. Black is better The start menu prolly stands for grass, then.
