So I "gloat' and “boast” and that's the "WOW" factor?
That the best you can do?
You got nailed Frank. Everybody knows every post you gloat, boast and
usually through in a snort. Translation: You're just a troll wannabe.

Show me your companies business plain, ok? You've got one right? Are you
an IT consultant for any large private companies? Show me their business
plans for future expansion, ok? Show me their financial projections
where they project future upgrade cost, etc., ok?
Frank said:You're now coming across as a phony...a troll...certainly not a "business
man" or an IT.
Frank
Possibly. It seems if the "company" really had a plan in place to "move
forward", it would be documented and Frank would be willing to share it.
But since Frank can't
have been done on a whim, not a thought out plan.
I have some attorney friends that always want to be on the "cutting
edge". They go out and buy whatever is new so they can boast about it.
They know better than to call me now that they've jumped (not moved)
into Vista.
before the change, because it sounds like a couple of them are heading
back to XP, their patience running a little too thin.
I assume there are generic stats available if somebody wanted to look for
them. Your local Microsoft representative would probably be only too happy to
help!
Seriously though, I doubt most companies would share that information. Where
I work we use XP dumbed down to look like Windows2000. At some point in time
there was some logical progression from 98 -> 2000, then 2000 -> XP. I assume
somebody did some analysis, and they obviously decided it made sense. I also
assume if I got ahold of that information and posted it on the internet I
wouldn't have to worry about the upgrade from XP -> Vista.
To your point, Microsoft generates revenue and it is not something they try
to hide. I personally would like to get to a point where everything works and
then not touch it for ten years or so...

Now Frank won't (at least to you), not can't.
give any reasons for the move, it would appear to
If you bother to read my original statement you might have seen where
I said we'd been using Vista RTM since December. The betas for over a
year. We just now, 6-7 months later, completed the change over. It
took time. It was not a "snap' decision. You missed that part huh?
Pity, You're now coming off as a complete fool...a troll ...like a dog
without a bone.
Feeling jealous about your friends huh? Pity!
Oh...here's the real problem. You're not an IT. You're just the
computer repair man for some of your friends and family and Vista has
got you stumped.
Pity.
At least they took my advice and backed up their drives
You don't really know your way around computers do you. And Vista got
the best of you. Poor planning on your part. Now your friends know the
truth!
Pity.

Andy said:Hah! Thank you, Frank.
I just finished read this topic , which you initiated. It was funny.
It was same as it was 10, 15 and 20 years ago.
Most of your antagonists, there in back of time, was boy-scouts yet, and
they don't remember time when Win 3.11, Win 95 and Win 98 arised. They
just know the Win XP. One OS in their entire live.
But, they probably don't even know, they speak exactly same thing as
their fathers and uncles.
"Why you switched to the Windows 3.11? You are idiot! DOS is good
enought! You are wasting money of your company! There is no gain in
productivity in this swich!" ...And so on...
Soon or later all this "conservators" will switch to the Vista of
course. As their fathers and uncles has done in past.
And they will come here and ask you, Franky, about advices, how to tune
Vista.
Good Luck, Frank!
So, Andy, did you think that Windows Me was an improvement over 98SE?
After all these years, Windows Mail doesn't have a spell check?
Try Thunderbird.
Because his opponents in this topic, all they are Linuxoids-zealots. TheyNo one has ever asked Frank for advice. I wonder why that is.
Andy said:I don't think. I know, it was so.
But this time is over, we are inside of different news group, and I
reject to be provocated to start these empty tales about past.
Here I'm agree with you. It sucks! But I don't care much about. English
is my second language, it is far from perfect. But who honestly cares
about English Grammar in newsgroups and forums? I use Windows Mail ONLY
for reading microsoft.public.xxxxxxx newses.
For email I have an Outlook and Word.
One or two of my machines fully under Open Source. There are Ubuntu and
Fedora. So I keep one of my two eyes on Linux community. And I know
about these things maybe much more as you do.
But I don't scream on every virtual corner, "Windows Must Die! Linux
Forever!"
Maybe, because I remember screamings of some zealots, "Windows must die!
OS/2 Forever!"
Do you know,buddy, what is OS/2 mean, and where is it now?
And maybe because I have to feed my family from my job, which is fully
under the Windows control.
Windows environment, is a business environment. Linux enviroment is a
terra of computer hobbists and zealots. (until now yet)
You (Linuxoids) are funny guys, but I need stable life, not your
antiglobalization parades.
Because his opponents in this topic, all they are Linuxoids-zealots.
They (you) don't need to know much about Windows. You guys think about
youself as you are all experts in Windows, Microsoft System Engineers at
least.

Oh Andy, that's really funny!Andy said:Alias, if you was offended by me, please, excuse me. I really didn't
even think about "insulting" anybody.
Looks like, you are truly "simple user".
Your own non-Microsoft news&email client, which you advertized here to
me, outdated. So probably, you need to know, even open-source has to be
updated on a regular base.
I do love English language, but this one is one from most difficult
languages. You know?
Except this, I can speak, write, and read in three more languages. So I
know, what I'm talking about.
When I into the English-speaking forums and newsgroups, usually I don't
use spell check. That's why I don't care much about it. Maybe I'm wrong
here, maybe not...
And when I'm using a Thunderbird, I don't use its spell-checker
extensively, too. Because I know, it doesn't check punctuation and
doesn't follow most basic rules of the English Grammar.
Alias, please, keep your eyes on your punctuation, if you respect your
language. Don't trust Thunderbird.
And one more. I and you we were wrong, when said Windows Mail doesn't
have spell-checker. It does. (If Word installed on machine) I used it
now. How many errors you can find in this my message? Not to much,
right? Almost every your own sentence has error(s).
Maybe you need to try Windows Mail once again, buddy?
