Whilst I've had my ups and downs with him in the past I'm confident that he knows his stuff when it comes to hardware. He's learned from practical experience - the BEST way to learn, in my opinion. Have YOU ever built a computer from scratch, Pooh? |

How can you complain that, on principle, they must include a few trivial games? |

Windows 10: Here's why it beats Windows 7 on security!
On 09/30/16 01:06, David B so wittily quipped:
The firm demonstrated security features exclusive to Windows 10 at its Microsoft Ignite conference in Atlanta today - using the event to reveal a new safeguard that will be added to Windows 10's Edge browser next year. whoopee twiddle. Now, I ask THIS question: why doesn't Micro-**** BACK-PORT those "security features" to 7 and 8.x, hmmm??? Or, do they have a heinous side-effect on user privacy and/or the ability to use your OWN computer YOUR way??? -- your story is so touching, but it sounds just like a lie "Straighten up and fly right" |

Microsoft is a corporation, in business for one purpose only - to make a profit for shareholders! :-) Or, do they have a heinous side-effect on user privacy and/or the ability to use your OWN computer YOUR way??? Hundreds of millions of people are now using Windows 10. There *IS* no going back, in my opinion. Btw, there *IS* no privacy if one uses the Internet!

[snip] If these *******s at Microsoft know how to safeguard a browser then it would be nice if they implemented the patch now, not nexxt frigging year. Windows 10 sucks; Microsoft sucks. I was considering asking MS to make good OS, but they probably don't know how. Last night I turned on my computer and found a new version of Windows that didn't suck. Then I woke up. |

MS isn't the only one: http://www.opera.com/apps/vpn. Oh, and Windows 10 SUCKS. MS is talking about putting their browser inside a Virtual Machine, not about a Virtual Private Network. I realize it's difficult to keep track of all of the overused term's various meanings, but there is a difference between a VM and a VPN. A VM is a low-level machine-level isolation layer, which makes the application running inside the VM think like it's got the entire machine to itself. Whereas, a VPN is a higher-level isolation layer for network connections. What would be more useful in a browser? I'd say VPN is much more useful, it hides your identity better. A VM doesn't hide your identity at all, all it's there to do is make sure if your browser gets infected by malware, it won't affect the rest of the system. Yousuf Khan |
