    2. @widget No start menu? What about all my programs that werent designed with "Metro" in mind? Its all gonna look like poop

      Friday, 21-Sep-12 04:16:45 UTC from web
      1. @renovatedkitchen exactly. They need win 8 metro for tablets and win 8 aero for desktops. Metro would be exclusively metro, and aero would be updated windows 7.

        Friday, 21-Sep-12 04:18:40 UTC from web
        1. @techdisk Yeah. That would help.

          1. @renovatedkitchen The last thing I really liked about Microsoft was MS DOS

            Friday, 21-Sep-12 04:20:43 UTC from web
            1. @shadowdash454 Windows 95. When the mouse and GUI first came out. Was trully something else and amazing

              Friday, 21-Sep-12 04:21:32 UTC from web
              1. @renovatedkitchen Wasn't BeOS the first system with a GUI? I'm not sure, though...

                Friday, 21-Sep-12 04:55:00 UTC from MuSTArDroid
            2. @shadowdash454 @renovatedkitchen Or was that Windows 3.x or something like that. Whatever, you get what I mean

              Friday, 21-Sep-12 04:22:08 UTC from web
            3. @shadowdash454 Their hardware is good.

              Friday, 21-Sep-12 04:22:47 UTC from web
    3. @renovatedkitchen Just getting a look at it?

      Friday, 21-Sep-12 04:17:11 UTC from web
      1. @eaglehooves Yeah. I guess it has to follow the microsoft pattern. One good > one bad> repeat

        Friday, 21-Sep-12 04:18:56 UTC from web
        1. @renovatedkitchen I'm already annoyed at ultrabooks, so we'll see how this goes. Things are becoming more and more of a pain in the plot to service.

          Friday, 21-Sep-12 04:21:52 UTC from web
          1. @eaglehooves Im still downloading a prerelease. I have a touchscreen on my toughbook

            Friday, 21-Sep-12 04:23:09 UTC from web
    4. @widget I dunno. Microsoft is trying something really new. Im kinda scared and am ready to hide under my desk

      Friday, 21-Sep-12 04:20:44 UTC from web
    5. @widget and no sane person would use C#

      Friday, 21-Sep-12 04:21:46 UTC from web
    6. @widget Im proud of them. Go big or go home, right

      Friday, 21-Sep-12 04:24:00 UTC from web
    7. @widget I'm actually partial to the Dell keyboards and mice.

      Friday, 21-Sep-12 04:24:19 UTC from web
      1. @eaglehooves the dell quietkey. Love that thing.

        Friday, 21-Sep-12 04:25:21 UTC from web
        1. @techdisk I got one of those for free when an architecture firm was cleaning out their old stuff. :D

          Friday, 21-Sep-12 04:26:45 UTC from web
          1. @eaglehooves I wish I could use mine, but my laptop doesn't have a ps/2 port...

            Friday, 21-Sep-12 04:27:55 UTC from web
            1. @techdisk adapter

              Friday, 21-Sep-12 04:28:41 UTC from web
              1. @renovatedkitchen not too easy to find a ps/2 to usb as it is usb to ps/2

                Friday, 21-Sep-12 04:29:50 UTC from web
                1. @techdisk http://www.ebay.com/itm/USB-to-PS2-PS-2-Cable-Adapter-Converter-keyboard-Mouse-/230848151880?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item35bf9f4148

                  1. @renovatedkitchen I can't ebay! I'm 17 ;_;

                    Friday, 21-Sep-12 04:31:32 UTC from web
                    1. @techdisk 16*

                      Friday, 21-Sep-12 04:31:45 UTC from web
                    2. @techdisk Make account, use prepaid visa

                      Friday, 21-Sep-12 04:32:20 UTC from web
                      1. @renovatedkitchen there is so much I would do with a prepaid visa right now... including, but not limited to, donate to rdn and steam money

                        Friday, 21-Sep-12 04:35:46 UTC from web
                        1. @techdisk I had an ebay account since gr. 7-8ish

                          Friday, 21-Sep-12 04:36:20 UTC from web
    8. @widget That's what I meant. I'll have to try a set of headphones with microphone my dad bought and see how good they are.

      Friday, 21-Sep-12 04:25:00 UTC from web
    9. @widget I used XP until this year, and I still use it on my netbook. I'll use 7 until at least 2020 unless there's a realli big hardware jump.

      Friday, 21-Sep-12 04:26:29 UTC from web
    10. @widget Yeah. I kinda want to try it. Looks like it will be good with my touch screen. Sadly my touchscreen registers as a mouse, and was already a major pain to get the drivers for Windows 7

      Friday, 21-Sep-12 04:26:31 UTC from web
    11. @widget ahh who needs ergonomics.

      Friday, 21-Sep-12 04:26:44 UTC from web
    12. @widget my school has those. You mean the ones that have back and forward buttons?

      Friday, 21-Sep-12 04:28:59 UTC from web
    13. @widget yep, that's the ones my school uses. I might see if I can take one while they upgrade their computers.

      Friday, 21-Sep-12 04:32:33 UTC from web
    14. @widget I've got a cheap off-brand mouse with fourth and fifth buttons arranged the same way. It's pretty nice, 'cept when I click one by accident and my browser hooks it to a back button for some reason.

      Friday, 21-Sep-12 04:32:43 UTC from web
    15. @widget oh wow, I really should see if I can swipe one from school

      Friday, 21-Sep-12 04:33:27 UTC from web
    16. @widget ah. My school has the non ergonomic versions. And thy are white.

      Friday, 21-Sep-12 04:37:16 UTC from web
    17. @renovatedkitchen GNOME3 is kinda what 8 should've been like. Semi-optimised for Touchscreens but quite usable with keyboard and mouse and programs just work how they should. It also looks beautiful.

      1. @omni I'm just one of those anti Linux people. To me, Linux belongs on iPods and iPhones. That's just me though. I like weird things.

        Friday, 21-Sep-12 06:17:12 UTC from StatusNet iPhone
        1. @renovatedkitchen iOS isn't Linux-based, though.

          Friday, 21-Sep-12 13:09:46 UTC from web
          1. @omni yeah. But iPod Linux is. iPod Linux was bomb.

            Friday, 21-Sep-12 13:10:54 UTC from StatusNet iPhone
            1. @renovatedkitchen I wonder if that can run on my 2nd(?) Gen iPod Touch. That thing is only rotting away somewhere anyway...

              Friday, 21-Sep-12 13:18:22 UTC from web
              1. @omni they started making it for the iPod touch/phone but I don't know if it was ever completed. Had it on my 20gb iPod click wheel and iPod video. You could even play doom on it!

                Friday, 21-Sep-12 13:19:36 UTC from StatusNet iPhone
                1. @renovatedkitchen oh, thats rockbox ain't it?

                  Friday, 21-Sep-12 13:36:02 UTC from web
                  1. @techdisk DED SUMPNY SEY ROBLOX??

                    Friday, 21-Sep-12 13:36:45 UTC from web

                        Friday, 21-Sep-12 13:38:59 UTC from web
                  2. @techdisk Rockbox is different. It was more mainstream. iPod linux was pretty cool though

                    Friday, 21-Sep-12 13:38:22 UTC from web
                    1. @renovatedkitchen ah, I have rockbox on my ipod nano. Its awesome except for a bug that reverses stereo.

                      Friday, 21-Sep-12 13:39:09 UTC from web
                      1. @techdisk Thats no fun. Did you ever try iPod linux?

                        Friday, 21-Sep-12 13:40:24 UTC from web
                        1. @renovatedkitchen no, my nano is too small for it to be worth it. And its also the only old style ipod I have.

                          Friday, 21-Sep-12 13:41:22 UTC from web
                          1. @techdisk True. But you can play original Doom on it!

                            Friday, 21-Sep-12 13:44:54 UTC from web
                            1. @renovatedkitchen you can on rockbox too, actually!

                              Friday, 21-Sep-12 13:47:39 UTC from web
                              1. @techdisk Rockbox still lacks a bad **** penguin

                                Friday, 21-Sep-12 13:48:44 UTC from web
                      2. @techdisk Oh. And PM sent

                        Friday, 21-Sep-12 13:40:51 UTC from web
                        1. @renovatedkitchen I would do that if I had an iPod o,o

                          Friday, 21-Sep-12 13:41:30 UTC from web
                          1. @derpyshy Oh. Gotcha. Well, Rockbox is pretty universal to lots of players

                            Friday, 21-Sep-12 13:45:15 UTC from web
