OK... thanks to the high aust dollar I now have two toshiba netbooks for
far, far, far less then half the price of a macbook pro!
However, I must say that Windows 7 is a load of (expletive deletive) crap.
Like all previous versions of the MS operating system it still has
crashing problems with high memory usage and I get a blue wriggling line
of death. Do Not Use this version of MS Windows for high memory graphics
usage such as Firefox, audio editing or graphics!!!! Do Not believe that
this is a stable OS! This is PR BullShit (and I should know, I have
degrees in this arena.)
Bill Gates could not write a BASIC DATA BASE IN C to save his life! This
OS is so slow I would die of old age before I could edit a graphic file
in 8 bit. (And forget Photoshop, I tried the trial version... that also
is expletive...)
However, on my other Toshiba netbook, a 550D multimedia with duel core
AMD CPU, I simply erased and re-formatted the entire hard-drive and
installed Linux Ubuntu 11.10. Oh, what a difference!!!! Sorry, I find it
hard to understand why so many have been conned into using MicroSoft
crap for so long????
