custom os? what for?
I am at One with the universe.
My Computer is my Savior.
I want to marry my computer.
My computer is just great, thanks for asking.
I get ticked off every now and again.
I get upset sometimes, but it's probably something I did to it.
I buy computer equipment only for its esoteric value, so I'm not too bothered...
It bothers me sometimes, but it's tolerable.
Sometimes I leave a heavy towel on my monitor's vent ports and leave it on at the office over the weekend.
It I didn't pay so much for it I would drive a screwdriver through its Central Processing Unit.
I've dropped it out a ten-story building. Twice.
I've "incorporated" new pieces of my computer onto my asphalt (or concrete, if you live down south).
I feel like that guy on Office Space when he punches that copier.
I Cast Thee Down To HELL!!!
I installed Windows 98.
custom os? what for?
>custom os? what for?
Sheer ignorance and stupidity.

what was this os supposed to do? was it specialized? why the hell did they approve such a thing when there are others like linux which could be tweaked to submission? (i could understand handheld stuff, but even they have open-source oses that can be tweaked.)
I do not get mad at my computer as my computer just does what the softwhere tells it to. It is the softwares fault if it screws up.
The software on the other hand is normaly good because it knows that I am a god(administrator) and can unistall it. So it knows that if wants to stick around it beter behave.
BTW Morrowind Construction Set was not behaving and is now mysterisly not on my computer.

>what was this os supposed to do?
It was supposed to make transactions and account handling simpler and more secure than by using Windows. When that goal was obviously out of reach the suits decided to use it anyway lest they look bad for sanctioning such a project.
>was it specialized?
Yes, which is just a nice way of saying that it lacks necessary features to make it useful.
>why the hell did they approve such a thing when there are
>others like linux which could be tweaked to submission?
My point exactly, Linux is far superior to what we are using, but the internal politics effectively push away any sanity. So I quietly do my job and get paid.

this is a little off topic, but
what company do you work for? what do they make/do for people? on a scale of 1 to 10, how dilbertesque is it?
In other words, this guy:Conclusion? Don't get angry with the computer, get violent with the bright spark who wrote the OS.

Bill Gates gets holy water in his eyes.
"Come to me my pretties!"
"Your soul is now MINE!"
Linux stock goes up again.
Bill laughs maniacally after seeing the bug list for Windows98.

LMAO!! no... really Prelude... tell us how you feel about itOriginally posted by Prelude
I'm at one with the universe. Besides, it's very rarely the computer that causes trouble, it's the operating system. At work we have two operating systems, Windows and a custom OS written by a moron who left before I could kill him. A lot of my job is duct taping that spawn of satan back together. Conclusion? Don't get angry with the computer, get violent with the bright spark who wrote the OS.
