Always Innovating "Touchbook"
clockworkjames:
No, I used a beta release of xp64 for over a year.
Melodic:
I'm amazed you're choosing xp64 to represent Microsoft's committal to quality releases.
notselfcreated:
Dudes, relax! It's just poking a little fun at a major corporation. Isn't that what we do? Microsoft releases buggy software that you have to buy because of the monopoly. Apple is a Starbucks-sipping cult whose followers will pay a 200% premium to fit so-so hardware into clean white plastic. And Linux is, well, who the fuck cares, it's Linux.
Of course these are all silly exaggerations, but that's what makes them funny.
Re: the Touchbook being ugly, well, that's your call. I actually think it is kind of Apple-ish. Clean straight lines, rounded corners. If it were thinner and silver, you'd swear it was a Macbook. But aesthetics are subjective. I mean, I remember it being 2001 and people swearing that this was the pinnacle of technology design.
clockworkjames:
The touchbook was designed by some dude and he has a website where his designs are shows including a toothbruush with disposable heads. Make of that futility what you will.
xp64 was good for me, ran all the games I wanted, Avast had AV for a 64 bit OS before most other people, steam client worked, browsers and drivers worked, it was stable, I could go on.
And if we are finding untrue stereotypes to be funny how far should we take it?
Bottom line is it's not funny, it's just being a prick :/
