lmaoo...
Every other industry in world, is trying to make their product more EFFICIENT with the existing technology, whereas Mircosoft just throw more power at it to make it 'faster'.
When was the last time that WINDOWS worked faster WITHOUT the need to use more processing capability?
The answer you are looking for is 'never'.

That's why WINDOWS sucks, dude

Sure, you have to hand it to Mr Gates - he's got the whole world by the short n curlies, because, as you so rightly said, it is the industry standard.
That doesn't mean that it's the best.
Sure, WINDOWS is a great system (or at least it is when it works), but I just wish that they'd sort out the way it works to make it more efficient.
It's like strapping a V12 into a Mini, it'll go faster, but try stopping the bugger lol
Not the greatest of analogies, but the point is there.

LINUX is far more efficient than WINOWS, but, they haven't got the customer base there to compete with Microsoft...yet.

DOS is even quicker, but not alot of people can work in DOS - WINDOWS bridges the gap between the expert and the average Joe, like you and I, and makes things easier and nicer to look at.
