Instead of putting in all kinds of bells and whistles into Vista, why can't M$ concentrate on a true, very efficient, w/little to no bugs at all in it, operating system. Remember the BEOS operating system?
No more memory wasting dead end code and other junk.
No more pre-loading drivers and programs that won't ever be used. Only load drivers that are supported on the system that it is loaded onto.
Just a very clean, very efficient, operating system.
As an operating system, I want performance. To be able to run software as fast and efficiently as possible.
To utililize my hardware potential as fully as possible.
Believe it or not, if software is written to utilized the full potental of the cpu, it can run at near supercomputer speeds. It has been done.
The GPU's of our graphics cards now-a-days can now be programmed, so they are another untapped source in order to unload the CPU. With Vista being even more graphic intensive than ever, why not fully tap the GPU, and take the load off the CPU?
Remember, M$ is going to target brand new, prebuilt systems, which will be up to date, technology wise, when Vista does comes out. Systems that should have dual cores by then, and graphics cards w/programmable GPU's, be it a Nvidia 7xxx or an ATI X1xxx. Also, if the stories are true, 2 gb of memory will be needed to even run Vista.
Again, an OS that utilizes todays technology as efficiently as possible. Utilizing the full potential of the cpu(s), dual and multicore; the memory, hard drive, and other hardware.
And I don't want anymore blue screens.
Is this wrong to ask for as a consumer. Would anyone tolerate a brand new automobile, or any other consume item, always breaking down? Yet the software industry is different. You expect that software will have problems, and it does, and that has got to stop, and stop now.
With Vista now having to have over 60% of it rewritten, and to have it done by January of next year, it's a guarantee that it will have problems and bugs, as well as lots and lots of dead end code. There won't be enough time to clean it up and fully test it.
