On Windows or Linux, mostly because i sometimes act very dumb, i have always used a third party application to rescue my deleted files.<br /><br />-------------------------------------------<br /><br />2. <br />- No my own stupid brain was the cause of it ;-)<br /><br />-------------------------------------------<br /><br />3. <br />- Yep, mostly because i have messed around with the O/S. But it has been aged since have i seen Windows, Linux or Mac OS X crash (BSOD). Actually the recent thing seen been crashing, was my celluar phone - Sony Erricson. And that i don't regard as normal ;-)<br /><br />-------------------------------------------<br /><br /><br />4.<br />- Hmmm Windows 2000 or 2003. Forgot to setup firewall and AV-software. Again my stupid brain hates me and i hate my brain :-) <br /><br />-------------------------------------------<br />5. <br />- Yep, thanks to google - which are running on Linux. So actually thanks to Linux :-P<br /><br />-------------------------------------------<br />6. <br />- In my case it was very easy. Actually more easy than compilling MPlayer on a Linux box :-P<br /><br />-------------------------------------------<br /><br />7. <br />- Don't know. Never had an infection with an AV-suite installed. <br />-------------------------------------------<br /><br />8. <br />- 15 minuttes i think, but it was years ago.<br /><br />-------------------------------------------<br /><br />9. <br />- It makes my wife happy. If my wife is happy, then i'm happy ;-)<br /><br />-------------------------------------------<br />10. <br />- My work pays for the Officesuite, the OS is OEM and the AV-software is free as in free beer.<br /><br />-------------------------------------------<br />11. <br />- Actually i would but it this way ; If one produces a product, it is that induvidual that deceides how to distribute it, which license (Proprietary, Freeware, Free software, etc.), what price, etc. So to answer your question; no choice.<br /><br />-------------------------------------------<br /><br />12. <br />- Nope.<br /><br />-------------------------------------------<br />13. <br />- Eh no... Who would ?<br /><br />-------------------------------------------<br />14. <br />- Run screamin' away...<br />-------------------------------------------<br /><br />15. <br />- I do not "pirate" software. .... yarrr (pirate sound)<br /><br />-----------------------------------------<br /><br /><br />16. <br />- I have never done that.<br />-----------------------------------------<br /><br />17. <br />- Nope.<br /><br />-----------------------------------------<br />18. <br />- Looooong time regardless the O/S. I've get lots .... i mean lots of data that needs to be backed up before, wipping the HD. Actually it's the data and installing programs that takes time.<br /><br />Linux ; setting up and configuring the desktop, tweaking the system to handle the hardware, installing drivers for the wireless network, installing programs which was not a part of the standard install. <br /><br />Windows ; setting up and configuring the desktop, install drivers ....<br /><br />Hang on!! It's almost the same procedure. Someting takes alonger time if it was a Linux install and shorter time with Windows - and vice versa...<br /><br />-----------------------------------------<br /><br />19. <br />- Yup.<br /><br />-----------------------------------------<br /><br />20. <br />- Nope and it's not just the hardware, but also software. No OS can guarantee that.<br /><br />-----------------------------------------<br /><br />21. <br />- Yep they will be supported or it can be solved by conversion with no cost third party applications.<br /><br />-----------------------------------------<br /><br />22. <br />- Yep they do. But i'm not naive, they also cares for their income ;-)<br /><br />-----------------------------------------<br /><br />23. <br />- Se above answers :-)<br />-----------------------------------------<br /><br />24. <br />- Eh i'm not. :-)<br /><br />-----------------------------------------<br /><br />25. <br />- It does not take much if your a technical gifted person.Madshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05687417855977030087noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1514795258871703434.post-4734699597887117892010-09-08T01:55:47.583-06:002010-09-08T01:55:47.583-06:00Sorry for my bad grammar.

Also, some fanboys out there could do the same, but that requires ethics that either their vision, probably clouded by the current paradigm, or their stubborn zeal may not let them use.Megatotorohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02268018256762186695noreply@blogger.com
