Hey guys just bought Windows XP. Can't wait to install it.
>>52121349
Have you guys seen my new PC. It has the new Pentium 4 and is running at a whopping 1.7ghz.
>>52121349
>2001
>Service Pack 2
Hope it's good. Computers being easier to use can only make the internet better
>>52121356
My Pentium 3 beats it in benchmarks!
>>52121349
wow you loser, get with the times
slackware 8.0 just came out
fuck windows XP
I have to install the damn thing on all the computers in the building.
Do you KNOW how many computers are in the WTC? It's gonna take all fucking year
Man I can't wait to go on my flight tomorrow. I'm going to visit my family in New York
>>52121387
you work at the WTC? Nice, I was thinking about visiting it soon!
>>52121356
AMD is gonna rape the pentium 4 when its new processor comes out.
Do you guys like my new phone. You can plug it into my BMW. Amazing isn't it.
>>52121349
Hey have you guys heard?
Redhat is changing Fedora Core to just Fedora now, this can only mean good things.
Also, anybody tried this new distro called 'Ubuntu'?
>>52121384
>slackware
>not SuSE 7.2
It's like you don't want the 90 day support!
>>52121349
Why would I want to upgrade to windows XP when windows 98 still works great and it has better DOS support?
I just upgraded my MPC Clientpro D8 from 98 to XP (home edition) and doubled the ram to 512mb!
Still only got this 20gb hard drive, but i dont really have anything i need to keep on it anymore after i made my geocities page to store all my photos.
Anyone want to play MechWarrior 3 online? Ive got a bunch of America Online disks i found in burger king kids meals.

>>52121384
I remember trying to install Slack in the mid-90's and I couldn't get it to work because of poor hardware support. Linux people don't know how good they have it since even most Wifi chips are supported now.
>>52121443

PPC is THE future. Everything else is killing tech.
Got myself the new XBOX. Can't wait to hook this up to my tv.

>>52121458
oh no, i was off by three years.
>>52121461
To be fair, beta releases (Whistler) were available a year before that. So the existence of XP was anticipated for awhile before.
>>52121461
It's the WTC dude, we got the RTM to work with
>>52121479
I hope you're enjoying how apple is more and more targeting stupid consumers instead of pros
Look at my new LCD monitor. CRT is obsolete.
>>52121491
Yeah but probably only thru OEM, not for upgrading
>>52121468

that's right folks, linux users still depend on Windows for basic shit like wifi drivers, lol isn't that sad?

All I remember from 2001 is my older sister playing the same play over and over again.
She'd stack some small chairs on top of each other and stuff the chair tower with Barbie dolls. Then she'd fly a Lego plane to the tower that would then crumble and all the dolls would fly out. Then she drew bruises on the dolls and repeated the whole thing.
Over and over again, for hours, weeks, months, years...

And what makes them so bad is that the people that post in these threads barely have a grasp on what was big in the year anyway. Wikipedia saying that XP came out in 2001 doesn't mean that it was the cool thing to install. I know people that used 2000 unironically until 2006. Shit, the school that I did my week of work experience in was using 98/NT4 on everything in 2004. They only dropped that shit when Microsoft forced them.
