Adios Vista! Windows 7 On The Horizon

Which means that everybody has to close any files they have open from Shared Docs - a real PITA.

We are supposed to be getting a real server soon.

BTW: if you are using Vista, do NOT the Windows Aero color scheme - it is a real memory hog.

Oh good lord man, what are you waiting for? Get a crappy old PC, load Unbuntu on it and use that for a windows file server. Done. Free.

Permission is for L OSERS! Just do it. It'll be a month before anyone even notices they have stopped crashing and by then.....


(Or you could just stop downloading all that porn on your vista PC)
