Yes, if you only looked at the specs you would think it was a "game" machine. But it runs like a snail.
If you put 2 gb memory on a Win2000 machine it will run 10 times faster (my guess). I think a lot of our clients would go to Linux, but we would have to support everything. I wish someone would come out with a fully loaded machine that has Linux, email, office, etc. Then I wish we could get all our VFP9 software converted to Dabo. I think it would work, but it is a scary step when everything works like it is. We have a million lines of code with all those little 'fixes' that only come after your software has been used by a thousand clients over 10 years. We did that when we converted from FPD26 to VFP6. That seemed impossible, and it was, but we eventually got it working. We would never go back. We need some other large, well capitalized company to break the ice, prove the concept and make it so we could recommend it. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Ted Roche" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Wednesday, October 29, 2008 5:34 PM Subject: Re: Microsoft reveals features of Windows 7 > The other thing we noticed was expected.
