>No, Windows is very customizable A bunch of binaries No scripting language. No source. No idea what's going on. Maybe we just don't have the same definition of customizable. Try to customize windows to boot on multiple computers sharing the same SCSI drives on the same bus; I woudn't dream of it. Try to modify the TCP/IP stack on Windows to Hook into the SCSI bus (RFC 2143) for 160 MByte/s communication between processes over different machines - For a game server for example. On an open OS the possibilities are limitless. If you say you don't need to do that, you miss the point. >Second party software... On Windows, everything can be solved with Second.. Third party software. >and let me ask you this who wrote Linux and who wrote KDE? Huh? Are you talking about the Linux Kernel? Do I win something if I bother answering that silly question? I don't use Linux and I don't use KDE. No offense to the people who do. >I don't understand ware you are coming with this one Well - given - my ware is from the time I had Win NT 4, 95 and 98 so you win this one. I am still looking for the disk manager in 2000. I'm sure it's there somewhere. I'm in no hurry to find it though. And let me know when I can get NFS (not from Fourth party software) >Not only is the GUI networkable, but if you want with a using a applet that you can download you can serve it to any computer with a browser that supports ActiveX Ok.. I'm running 2000 on machine A, and I'm at machine B 300 km away. I start explorer on machine A, but want to see it running on Machine B. I know I can buy remote control software to do this. Is there a way to do it I would be grateful to learn, for what little use I make of windows. If you tell me to start explorer on machine B and mount the drive, you miss the point again. Now, forthe GUI being Networkable Active X and the Web... Are X and Java Applets the same? Not. >That is because unlike Linux... I don't use Linux. > in the NT/2000/XP world, there is no "under-code" a action made within the GUI is completed instantly. It's not translated by some archaic graph translator. This isn't a "seamless integration" of a app. on an OS, the OS is the graphics. Bwhahahah! Intant!. Translated by a graph translator? The OS is the graphics Bwhahahaha! You think that modular design is archaic? You should study the FreeBSD code. That's what your friends are doing in order to make Windows more stable. The BSD community doesn't mind either. They are in fact encouraged to do so. "And what about doing that from a different machine? Look into terminal services... You will never have to sit in front of that server again. Terminal services.. As I said - useless - what am I to do ? type "write" so "wordpad" can come up 300 km away.. Oh wait.. lets try edit.. damn - can't access the menu - mouse doesn't work... kill the telnet session! Start It again harrgh! Only one legal telnet session allowed. > And yes... XP support multi users at the same time.. I'll trust you on this one, but I will never run XP. Sorry not to be able to keep this up, but I have useful things to learn, which I expect will still be of use for a very long time. None of them on you OS of choice... But I am not trying to convert you. Windows does have some good sides. We just didn't talk about them. Be happy where you are. I am. Later.
