Oh boy I love Vista January 17th, 2008
I just wonder if it’s about the weather or my Vista Ultimate wasn’t simply in good mood. No matter what the reasons would be, I had to wait today nearly 2 hours to copy 8 movie files of 5.36Gb from my laptop to my external hard drive via USB2.0 port.
I began copying the files at 09:11AM, exactly one hour later at 10:10AM I returned to my room and I got astonished by this

Like only 50% of it all has been completed, whoa, now that’s “fast”. Kinda disappointing right, but hey, what can we do? Pretty much nothing I can assure you.
Our eyes yet remain on SP1, basically we have to wait until February to get that final version of Service Pack 1, and very seriously I hope that it will increase this performance.
For your curiosity the whole file process finished at exactly 10:46AM.
Update: don’t blame the port because I know it works just fine, this happened only today, usually it works smoothly.
“every OS sucks” - except linux, and I copied a 2G file for less then a minute from reiser4 to (usb flash, reiser4) on AMD Duron 1.3
I bet you love internet explorer indeed.

If you’ve heard the song from Three Dead Trolls in a Baggie - Every OS sucks I think you’d understand my title description.
Although it changes very often it is nice to see you commenting here regarding that.
Besides, you’re feeding your self with false assumptions about me.
Just for your informing I am a Firefox user, but as a web-developer you’re suppose to make sure that a web page you build is being displayed correctly in most browsers.
And we both know pretty well that most of internet surfers use IE.
Correct me if I’m wrong, but choosing what to use is their personal taste, nor you or me can do much about that, right ?
I could answer to you’re comment with a whole x pages article but that is one of my posts you should be expecting in two days.
Until then just enjoy the actual reply.
