  1. Review - Flock for Windows

    1.0.2 (Dec 4, 2007)

    "improvelence" has no idea. Grab a dictionary man!

    Flock is bloody excellent, infact from a UI level its probably better than Firefox.

    Congrats to the Flock Team on Version 1!

  3. Review - Nero

    7.5.9.0 (Nov 22, 2006)

    I hate how people say that Nero 7 is bloated.
    Thats what the customize option is for! The only CD and DVD writing suite I trust.

  4. Comment - Microsoft AV Head Criticizes Apple

    7.5.9.0 (Oct 20, 2006 - 12:03 AM)

    What I don't understand is why there is any form of data on these devices in the first place. I respect the fact that quality control test the devices before release to retail but I thought it was the end user that installs the ie "Ipod Software" on first installation?

    To cowgaR

    If you all you do is play solitaire and minesweeper, then yes you've had the same amount of memory as most people did 4 years ago.

    I think you should wake up and understand that memory and cpu power is the foundation of PC software and hardware devlopment. If we all stopped and said "yeah 256 meg of memory is all we need" then the process at which we are delivered new software would be slower. Windows Vista and Office are two of millions of different software titles and applications that are requiring larger and faster hardware technologies.

    If all you require from your pc is turning it on and off everyday then 256 of memory is all you need. However people like myself Video Edit, Test Beta Software and demand higher usage from our PC's. I have 1 gig of memory and to me that was a successfull investment.

    I dont think 256mb of memory is too much to ask given that its available as close as the corner store and costs approximately $30

    Plus if you've actually used the Beta of Office 12 its comes along way in terms of basic Word Proccessing. I'm not suprised that it requires larger amounts of memory required for optimal productivity performance.
