O
On the Bridge!
The Tragedy called Vista, some astonishing revelations...
Some people cannot grasp even the simplest things regarding vista.
As a reply to Franks stupid accusations that I never post anything original,
or even worse that im not smart,
I thought I would take a few minutes to pulverize him.
Bear with me through some simple and amusing calculations, that will let
your jaw drop....
We all know that vista is slower than xp, some say its 40%, and some say its
the same as xp.
I will be very generous with vista and say its ONLY 5% slower than XP.
Now lets say that each computer in the world suddenly adopts Vista.. what
impact would this have?
If we could say that each computer is working on average 10 hours a day
we would have=
10x60 =600min per day of computer uptime per computer.
Now the %5 of that is 30 minutes. Or in other words each vista machine will
be working 30 minutes more
to do the same tasks XP would do.
Now lets say that all the windows computers in the world are 2 billion ( a
number bill gates stated a couple of months ago)
then we would have 2.000.000.000 x 30 = 60 billion minutes more of
processing time world wide each day just because of vista.
or one billion hours or about 41.6 million years of computing time PER DAY
if we had to run ONE computer for 41.6 million years it would consume (if we
say the pc is 300watts)
300 billion watt hours, or lets convert this to mega joules - 300 ^E9 x 3.6
k joules = 1080000 MJ
more than one million megajoules...!!!
Now, normal gasoline has the energy of 34.8 megajoules per liter, so lets
find out how many liters of gasoline all these vista machines are consuming
(because electricity is made by fosil fules mostly)
1080000/34.8 = 31034 liters of gasoline.... per day, that is about 31 tons
of gasoline since one ton is 1000 liters,
and to carry all this gasoline you would need 1 Medium Range tanker ship PER
DAY!!!! (since a medium range tanker can carry 25- 45 tons of fuel)
Now that is a very vista friendly estimate... in reality you would have
several tankers full of fuel burning and contributing to the carbon in our
atmosphere just because of vista...
So much for global warming.. lol
