Very biased and primitive. Probably written by 15 yo... wink
And how about this XP "myth" he claims that's it's ok to run XP on 128 MB and 233 MHz CPU disgusted . Just one example to illustrate quality of his "mythbusters".

In his Windows XP "myths" he say:
Quote:
I have tested to work fine with the exception of only 64 MB of RAM (performance is poor). Increasing your RAM to 128 MB would be the only upgrade I would strongly consider as my absolute minimum

This is just plain nuts...
The funny thing is that I actually tried running XP on 300Mhz / 128 MB - man, that was UNBEARABLE!

128Mb ram... he won't have a lot left should he load SP2 and any other stuff smile I had mixed feelings, thought I'd post hoping it'd create some interest.

It's funny to see how people sometimes develop religious feelings towards computer systems. Apple or Microsoft - it doesn't matter, it's always ridiculous and very sad.
