Well these past fee days I’ve been trying some of Microsoft latest OS’s namely Windows Server 2003 and Longhorn (build 4029), and here hare my impressions.

Windows Server 2003

The latest server flavor of Windows, i had no intention of using it has a server but has a workstation since allot of people were claiming it was faster.

Has soon has i got it installed it was faster booting and application start times quicker, but after running some gaming tests (not in ideal condition but I’m not a professional :p) the results didn’t show any significant differences so i concluded that Windows Server 2003 wile a tiny bit faster then Windows XP didn’t justify using it has a workstation.

Note: The test were run on my system (see my Beast), 3DMark was run on Default, GLMark on Advanced Features @ 1024×768 Full Screen and Halo with Max Detail @ 1280×1024.

Longhorn

Well not much to see yet this early in alpha but I liked the new explorer specially the new address bar, another big new item I liked was the sidebar but like I said it’s still to early and exiting thing like WinFS (the new Database like File System Service), Avalon and AERO (the new graphics engine and User Interface) aren’t implemented yet so we will all have to wait.

If you have no clue about what I’m talking about I suggest you take a look at SuperSite for Windows and find out and see some screenshots ;).

Slashdot has just posted an article about Weblog Spam, something that happened recently on this blog. Very sad indeed 🙁 .

But Thank you for caring 🙂

Some guy (probably script) calling it self Viagra has spamed the blog with Viagra ads on some of the archived posts that contained the word sex, not very nice if you ask me but still dam funny 😀

Oh well that’s spammer…. by the way I’m still not shure if i should keep them or not so don’t be surprise if you don’t see any message.

They say Job searching is a full time Job in it self… their right.

Amongst the things I did recently was writing my “Curriculum Vitae”, it kind of putted thing into perspective, i realized i have what would be needed to be hired has a programmer yet I fear getting such position due to my lack of “real” experience.

So I’m hoping i get a job in a computer store or something if I’m really lucky, if not any job will do, anything is better then doing nothing i guess.

So now you know what I’ve been up too 🙂 I’ll update the blog more regularly so it will not look like i abandoned it, specially since my ISP finally fixed the unknown problem that made some web sites (including this) load in no less then 5 minutes, if at all.

So till the next update have fun…

Well at least now Internet explorer an Mozilla will open the page with out asking to the login information, if you want to use a real FTP application use this login:

server: ftp.madalien.com/pub/
user: [email protected] (in case of problem use %40 instead of @)
pass: (leave blank)
