Microsoft

@TM:
Yea, I’ve also heard that he is a hardass. That’s only one side though, I also know that he throws lavish parties for even the interns in the company. The Microsoft campus is something else…one of the coolest places to work I’ve ever been. I work part-time in the X-Box devision as a tester, and MAN…that place is decked out in high-tech equipment! Plus all the free drinks you want!!
Yea, this Bill Gates is a “interesting” character. I heard that he’ll spend hours in a conference room with various Department Heads, yelling at them with all sorts obscenities and profanities. Those there likened it to “sh*t through a goose,” the worst experience ever. Then he’ll come out and treat everyone to dinner as if nothing had happened. Strange…
(That was me, TG. TM forgot to sign out… :-?)
not so strange. I think mature people can deal with that. There is a place for business, and a place for fellowship.
A mature person can take this kind of correction in stride, without hard feelings outside of the work place - particularly if they know their boss. You have to realize that although the boss is yelling in your direction, that doesn’t mean that s/he is yelling at you. I know this sounds strange, but i’ve seen some weird s**t in my time too. I’ve had my job security threatened in some of the nicest places in the world with the greatest meals afterwards, hanging out with my boss. The corporate world can be a weird place. -
True that. :wink:

I prefer Windows 98 to all Windows OSes. Simple but perfect. And it uses less resources on my computer than most everything else. Good for gaming.

No, he would actually go to each director and scrutinize him (which was a combination of yelling and paper grabbing).
Simple but perfect
Heh, more like simple from perfect. And it still uses a lot of system resources. At least 30%!
-
Yeah but a lot less than the Windows NT and Windows Xp versions. And Windows 95 doesn’t work with Direct v8.1
-
I heard that 98 is still very good, but I could be wrong, I dont plan on updating unless I absolutely have to. Windows 98 has served me well so far. I still have DOS, do any of you remember DOS?
-
DOS? Huh? )
Windows 98 is basically Windows for the computer literate casual user. If your computer literate and you have important stuff on your computer, NT is the way to go. If you want a coach alongside you while on your computer, its all about XP. However, if you need neither the Coach nor the Security Guard, Windows 98 is more efficient.

This is a stupid way to go, but i’ve partitioned my drives. All apps, surfing, and day-to-day stuff is on my windows2000 (i like to do networking on occassion too for some games), but for most of my games they are on my win98. It works ok (tedious sometimes, but overall it’s good - win98 rarely screws up any games).
-
DOS was the best. :)

Yeah, it’s so great that one day it simply decided to forget the program that runs my mouse drivers :evil: . I was not happy. Have you ever tried to operate a windows OS without a mouse?
-
My advice? Downgrade to DOS. :)
-
Why stop there? Just fill your entire room with a huge mainframe, and then feed it punch-cards to give it instructions. :D
-
Ahhhh… the days of vacuum tubes. :)
-
linux/unix is the best!
davaint:scripter you traiter to microsoft, your avater is from liux!

Lack of options. :wink:

I actually had to run Windows without a Mouse for awhile. I got really friendly with the Tab key.
-
What seemed to be the problem?

Here’s a few of my favorite jokes:
Bill Gates dies and goes to hell. Satan greets him, ‘Welcome Mr. Gates, we’ve been waiting for you. This will be your home for all eternity. You’ve been selfish, greedy and a big liar all your life. Now, since you’ve got me in a good mood, I’ll be generous and give you a choice of three places in which you’ll be locked up forever.’
Satan takes Bill to a huge lake of fire in which millions of poor souls are tormented and tortured.
He then takes him to a massive colosseum where thousands of people are chased about and devoured by starving lions.Finally, he takes Bill to a tiny room in which there is a beautiful young blonde with an alluring look on her face, sitting at a table on which there is a bottle of the finest wine. To Bill’s delight, he sees a PC in the corner. Without hesitation, Bill says ‘I’ll take this option.’
‘Fine,’ says Satan, allowing Bill to enter the room.
Satan locks the room after Bill. As he turns around, he bumps into Lucifer.
‘That was Bill Gates!’ cried Lucifer. ‘Why did you give him the best place of all?’
‘That’s what everyone thinks,’ snickered Satan. ‘The bottle has a hole in it and the girl hasn’t.’
‘What about the PC?’
‘It’s got Windows 95!’ laughed Satan. ‘And it’s missing three keys.’
‘Which three?’
‘Control, Alt and Delete.’
Bill Clinton, Al Gore and Bill Gates all die in a plane crash.
They are standing before God, seated on His throne.God asks Al: “What do you believe?” Al says: “I believe in the earth. I believe if we don’t protect it, the whole earth will die.”
God says: “I like that, come sit on my left. Bill Clinton, what do you believe?”
Bill Clinton says: “I believe in people. I believe the people should be empowered. I believe no one has the right to tell someone else what to do.”
God says: “I like that, come sit on my right. OK Bill Gates, what do you believe?”
Bill Gates says: “I believe you’re sitting in my chair.”
