2-HeadedGiraffe: I Stand Corrected...Sorta

---

After a few days of using Vista, I'm getting used to some of its peculiarities. I think the issues I'm having with my pointer and stuff are probably due to a touchpad that's more sensitive than I'm used to rather than anything the OS is doing or whatever. I'm slowly getting used to working with that.

What I still don't like, though, is just the sheer amount of resources Vista uses. Photoshop runs somewhat choppily on my computer, and the computer has frozen at least once while using it (as opposed to...um...never under XP, except when something was seriously wrong). I might wait until I can install some games and stuff and see how they run before I say yay or nay on Vista.

It's purty, but I hear a lot of that's borrowed from Mac OSX, which does it all and takes less memory to do that. Haven't confirmed that, though, so don't quote me on it.

If you're thinking about getting a new computer that has Vista, or if you're thinking of "up"grading to Vista, have you considered switching to Mac, or doing all your work by hand? Either one would be more efficient.

I forgot to mention that as today is March 14 (3-14), it is officially Pi Day. Be sure to get out there and celebrate. Maybe have a slice of pie at 3:14 this afternoon or something. I don't know. I'm sure there are lots of local Pi Day activities planned in your individual areas.

Pi: 3.14
More Pi: 159
Another slice of Pi: 265

I got this quote off my daily calander today (Wednesday the 14 of March, 2007):

"Free societies will be allies against these hateful few who have no conscience, who kill at the whim of a hat." - George W. Bush

I just thought that too hillarious to keep to myself.

My computer.

But my step-father ordered me a new one, since I have no car and no knowledge of where one gets a computer in the Kalamazoo area. It should be here tomorrow (he overnighted it because he's awesome like that).

The laptop is dead. Long live the laptop.

Mood: Eh
Music: None
Etc.: 133
