Seriously, why can't they just let people try it themselves? Why do they need to fearmonger?

It's like theyre actively trying to sabotage Microsoft.

Look, if you want MS gone so bad, build a better product. If you can't do that, STFU.

And as far as I know, ZDNet isn't in the business of OS development, so they need to just shut up and let people try it.

They're not "saving" us by telling us it's bad, or to stay away, even indirectly. They're just windows bashing because they think it's cool. ZDNet: grow up, or stop paying your server bill.

Why post a topic on it then?

Holy thread resurrection, Batman!

There's no reason to fiddle with it, Windows 7 works just fine without needing tweaks.

Yea, He has copied and pasted the same thing in another thread...

Of course it *can* boot slower than Vista. It all depends on configuration. Hardware, software, yadda yadda.

I bet you I can make XP boot lightning fast, and then take 12 minutes. Just give me a hour online and Norton's latest release*.

*If you think I was serious there.... go ahead and look silly by directly quoting this post and saying it doesn't slow down a system. It's really a trap to see who the village idiots are around here ;)

Blast... missed that someone bumped this old topic. Cursed spammer looking person.

This topic is now closed to further replies.

    • Microsoft about to radically change how often your Edge browser updates

      By testman · Posted

      Nothing is stopping you from continuing with your testing cadence. If updates are released every 2 weeks instead of 4, and you test once every 4 weeks, the exact same amount of patches will still be available for you in those 4 weeks. For example: Before 4th week - patch 1, 2, 3, 4 After 2nd week - patch 1 and 2 4th week - patch 3 and 4 Still the same amount after 4.

      Everyone else has said it. I'm gonna say it - you don't know what you're talking about. I do. I have two laptops. One work, one personal. I have access to two more laptops - both personal. At home I manually update my personal laptop when I see on Neowin that there is an update - I carry on and only apply the updates when I am ready. My work one only updates when my workplace decides to send it - I carry on and only apply the updates (when they actually arrive, which is usually days after the release) when I switch off the laptop at the end of the day as usual. The two other personal laptops only get updated when I get to it which is rarely - the people who own them carry on using them until I get to it and update them. All of the browsers on all laptops are configured to restore the tabs when launched. Google and Microsoft have changed from 6 weeks to 4, and it looks like it's going to move to 2. None of these changes affect how any of these browsers on the laptops are used. Not one jot. My advice to you is stop panicking whenever you see an update. Just carry on with what you're doing. This even benefits you in a way - from your comment you sound like you don't like the changes or the frivolous new features - great - then carry on as before!
