And it runs on crap called Dell. :D

It's a XPS M1710 (MXG061), that's not really what you call "crap."

That animation looks pretty cool though. (Y)

I'm sorry, and I really don't mean to threadcrap, but why do you guys really care what a bootscreen looks like?

I reboot my box about every patch tuesday, and that's really it. It takes about 20 seconds.

Knives could stab me in the eyeballs that often and I wouldn't care. :laugh:

That is exactly what I came to say.

Elegance? I don't get it, what does that have to do with the computer running the software you need and providing the functions and utility you need?

the purpose is to fuze both substance and style in a nice package.

This isn't the 90s you know. We have the processing power to advantage of such features.

      I really wonder if this has to do with the built in VPN or "private DNS" of browsers that trip up legal requirements like cookie consent and Cloudflare (to avoid all the botnet attacks we get). And BTW some botnets still manage to get past Cloudflare, we are constantly having to tweak it to block malicious traffic that ultimately cause a DDoS.

      CPPC states can also be messed around with in most UEFI settings but aren't as robust as the ones that the Windows Scheduler can provide! Make sure you look into what your motherboard also has before customizing for the Windows Scheduler.
