Some people even liked the Sega Dreamcast. Oh btw my family owned a laserdisk player in the early 80s.
It's def an underrated system. I worked my ass off and bought one when they first came out. Sent from my SM-N910V using Tapatalk
Update guys: How is Windows 10 going? I still haven't updated yet. Thought about doing so this weekend. Good idea?
Most likely MS will force it. A couple of people said last week that is what happened to them. Overall 10 has been OK. The only bug that I've noticed is that sometimes the start menu doesn't load up. Sent from my BLU LIFE ONE X using Tapatalk
That's cause Ubuntu is a pain in the ass. No one wants to use Ubuntu unless you want to spend a couple of hours on the command line interface setting up the most basic tasks. Yes, they claim to use the GUI now, but wait till something goes wrong, off to the CLI you go, lol. OS X is the best hands down. None of the bullshit from MS or Nix, you just pay more, whatever.
I actually have gone back to using Ubuntu for most of my computer stuff besides gaming. And also they do use a gui. Installing windows and Ubuntu side by side is so easy. Install apps is so easy. No terminal. When something breaks the updater will tell you and try to fix it. Sent from my BLU LIFE ONE X using Tapatalk
So did you ever get one? They aren't expensive. I liked the system as a whole, but it was really nothing special.
no. it's not interesting to me anymore since the technology is outdated. I meant when I was a kid I really wanted one. I remember the graphics blowing away other systems when it was pre release.
Switched back to 7. Drivers were't working, flashing screen, and the auto updates (I like to let a build release and decide when to install sometime they fail)
How To Make a Bootable Ubuntu USB on Windows, Mac and Linux http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2016/04/how-to-create-a-bootable-ubuntu-usb-on-windows-mac-and-linux Sent from my BLU LIFE ONE X using Tapatalk
Gave ten a go when it first came out last year. It was an unmitigated mess with video drivers constantly stopping and audio hardware mysteriously disappointing from device manager entirely. Went back to 7 and stayed there until recently when I gave 10 another shot on one of the rarely used computers as a test. Things went along fairly smoothly, it installed and everything worked properly. So, I figured I'd try it on the one the computers that tried last year. This time around everything worked pretty damn well considering I was upgrading over a heavily used Win 7 installation. However, there was still the occasional slow down and freeze. I was happy with the general performance enough to use the reset system option to create a "fresh" installation. My impressions of Win 10 as an OS is that it's just too damn tied into the net. There are an absolute crap load of things you need to turn off in order to disable monitoring. While I like the idea of Cortana on a phone I don't particularly like it as part of a mainstream OS. Between that and the automatic One Drive, MS Store, P2P updates and Cortana. It's become pretty damn clear they are trying to wrap the OS around cloud based services. I've never been, nor ever will be, a big fan of cloud based services. The other thing that bugs me about the OS is how it feels like three desktop user interface ideas jammed together. A good example of this is that you have the classic control panel as well as the new "settings" window. Both do similar things in completely different ways, enough so that it's confusing even to a relatively old hat computer user. The start key menu is has the same sort of thing going on with a normal click giving you the Win 8/10 hybrid menu and a right click giving you the stuff that used to be on the right side of the Win 7 start menu. This would be things like control panel, devices, run, file search etc. What I like about Win 10(and win 8.1) is the really solid driver catalog. Thus far I've been able to install everything I have without looking for the drivers. This includes some cruddy usb ethernet/wifi adapters I E-Bay'd from China. I'm also a fan of the ability to do a clean system reset without a disc. It's an old feature to be sure but it's nice to see it fully integrated with Windows. *Read this first if you want to skip the rambling* You can roll back to Windows 7 if you don't like 10. It only saves the Win 7 installation for 30 days before it deletes it. So give it a try, but back up the important stuff, write down and software serial numbers first. Ya know, just in case.
