Re: Don't go there Christian Graus13-Aug-01 14:10 Christian Graus 13-Aug-01 14:10  No, he means saur, as in dino. If anything on his machine is out dated, then it's his fault for not upgrading...

The UI only ov13-Aug-01 4:16 ov 13-Aug-01 4:16  I think that XP will not have something for me except UI changing. But I really like these changes... I will upgrade to it (I hope PIII-933/512mb will be enought ) Btw, about skinning there: does anybody knows: will the console windows be skinned or they will have an old style? (They have an old style in beta 2) With the best regards, Vitaly. Re: The UI only #realJSOP13-Aug-01 7:08 #realJSOP 13-Aug-01 7:08  You will have a choice between the new "let us make you more reliant on pretty little pictures and a dumbed-down interface", or the "classic" windows 2000 interface. Re: The UI only ov13-Aug-01 7:14 ov 13-Aug-01 7:14  I know about this choice, but in beta2 you will see the "old"-style console window even if you select new style... Have the situation changed? With the best regards, Vitaly. Re: The UI only Anders Molin13-Aug-01 11:18 Anders Molin 13-Aug-01 11:18  I use RC2, and console windows are still "old style" - Anders Money talks, but all mine ever says is "Goodbye!" Only If I Buy A New PC and HAVE To George Chastain13-Aug-01 3:32 George Chastain 13-Aug-01 3:32  I expect to keep running Win98 at home for some time. The only way that I'll probably get WinXP is if I buy a new computer and I am forced to get it. WillCodeForMoney Re: Only If I Buy A New PC and HAVE To 13-Aug-01 4:21 13-Aug-01 4:21  Buy a new PC and be forced into buying XP? What braindead country do you live in? Just buy the damn hardware and take care of the rest yourself. Sorry, but that is just too much for me. Re: Only If I Buy A New PC and HAVE To #realJSOP13-Aug-01 7:07 #realJSOP 13-Aug-01 7:07  So much that you're afraid to use your real name? You're obviously not up-to-date on the fact that Microsoft has (for the most part) claimed that any Ccopy of Windows already installed cannot be used on any other computer (basically, the license belongs to the machineit's originally installed on). I don't happen to agree with that particular view, but I',m willing to bet that the original poster got win98 on the machine he's using now and most likely did not get a copy of the Windows CD with the machine. Indeed, manufacturers will not be shipping XP CD's with machines on which the OS pre-installed. To the original poster, if you want to buy a new machine at a vendor, and they don't/won't give you a choice of which OS to install, buy your machine somewhere else. Re: Only If I Buy A New PC and HAVE To roel13-Aug-01 7:51 roel 13-Aug-01 7:51  the only way that anyone will be forced to use that OS is if microsoft succeeds in its quest to takeover the pc industry. so much so that even hardware is succumbing to the demands of the OS. when that happens, go away and dont turn your back lest you turn to a huge lumbering block of salt. Upgrading from what OS? 13-Aug-01 2:10 13-Aug-01 2:10  I to use Win NT/ws 4.0 in 1997y. Approx. a year i'm using win2000... I think, that installing Wxp will be a downgrade for me, for my job.
