Windows Vista vs Windows XP

Fri Sep 7, 2007, 2:33 PM
Today I semi-finished my new gaming machine.
Still a few things missing, but I'd like to do it's decent for now.

CPU: Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600 (2.4 x4 1066FSB)
RAM: 1GB DDR2 PC-8500 (1066mhz)
GPU: ATI Radeon X1650Pro 512mb x2
HDD: 7200 RPM 250GB x2
Sound: Creative Soundblaster Audigy LS
OS: Windows Vista Home Premium
Game I tested: Microsoft Halo 2 for Vista (it's Vista only unless you crack it for XP)
The experience I got: extreme graphic lags, sound kept going haywire and it sounded just really really bad overall, also all 3d effects were none existant, movies however played fine

vs

CPU: Intel Core 2 Duo E6300 (1.8 x2 800FSB)
RAM: 1GB DDR2 PC-8500 (633mhz due to motherboard liimtations)
GPU: ATI Radeon X1650PRO
HDD: 7200 RPM 250GB
Sound: Creative Soundblaster Audigy LS
OS: Windows XP Professional SP2
Game I tested: Microsoft Halo 2 for Vista cracked to play in Windows XP
The experience I got: Movies lagged like mad, game itself was smooth, a few scratchy noises now and then in sound, but otherwise fine

Conclusion: This is a game designed for Windows Vista, made only for Windows Vista, and it lost badly against Windows XP using much much lower specs, so Windows Vista so far has a really long way to go before it'll be my main operating system.

How has everyone elses results been?

  • Listening to: the fan of my Q6600
  • Reading: What I'm typing
  • Watching: my monitor
  • Playing: nothing atm
  • Eating: Air
  • Drinking: nothing atm

PLEASE READ; THIS IS IMPORTANT, if you love your art and if you protecter very deply, PLEASE READ THIS.

read the black parts and the begginer and you'll understand.




I hope all of you have thoroughly read the new submission agreement. If not, let me highlight a few key points for you.

INTRODUCTION/SUMMARY
The following is a brief overview (in plain English) of the terms and conditions under which submissions to deviantART.com will be accepted. In general, by submitting photographic, artistic, computer-generated and/or other materials (audio, visual, audiovisual and otherwise) to us and agreeing to the terms and conditions set forth below, you are giving us the nonexclusive right (i.e., you can grant similar rights to others at any time) to use those materials on and as part of our websites (e.g., to include your materials in our database which we make freely available over the World Wide Web). You are also representing to us that, among other things, you have the right to allow us to so use the materials and are agreeing, among other things, to cover the costs of our defense if someone claims that we do not have the right to so use the materials (or that you do not have the right to allow us to so use the materials). Our right to use your materials in this manner will continue until you choose to remove your materials, or any of them, from our website, and notify us in writing that you want to terminate this agreement. You are agreeing that we are not responsible for your work while it is on our website, including protecting it from other people, and that we are not responsible for removing it from our website.

This means that if someone else gets your materials from our website and starts selling posters featuring your materials that we are not responsible for this activity and that you will pursue that other person and not deviantART to stop such use of your materials. Despite the foregoing sentence, you are also agreeing that we can remove your materials, or any of them, from our website at any time or from time to time without notice to you and without reason. You are agreeing that we have the right to use your name and likeness on our websites solely in connection with the promotion and marketing of our business (e.g., we can refer to you as a member of deviantART.com) until you notify us that you wish to terminate this agreement and you have removed all of your materials from our website. In the event that we have sublicensed your materials to another website, it is your responsibility to have your materials removed from that website and you will not hold us responsible or liable if the other website refuses to remove your materials. We reserve the right to make changes to this agreement in the future, but any changes would not apply to you unless you accept those changed terms.

Now if that means I have to liscence my work, then so be it.

I really didnt need to justify my actions here, but to be quite honest. Im not going to give a company that does anything and everything to make a buck yet another way to make a buck off me.

Theres good buisness that is ruthless, and bad buisness that is ruthless.

From what I've seen, things that go far beyond this agreement. Its bad buisness.

now i have the same opinion, from now on, i should take my drawings, leaving just the fanart our (mayby) some drawings that i don't care.


once again please make a journal in your userpage adn send it tou your friends

DA can't to this we MUST DO SOMETHING!

don't let DA using your art for itself... if they get any money, it will be for them, and your name will not appear, anly as a member os Deviantart.com...


please send this mensseger to your friends..
