Using the same excuse the Linvocates use, the debug code is still in Vista
so all bets on speed, memory usage and so forth are off until the final
product is release, whatever decade that is :).....

"Why do they call it a flatfish?"
eh???
Heh, I just realized you didn't look at the pics at all - the one with
200m RAM is my X server not vista ;)
You're a blind flatfish!
Like I said, who cares?
It's not released yet.
All bets are off.
what bets?? are you insane??
Yep, here comes the discredit routine.
No, I am not insane.
However, I am smart enough not to try and compare something that is not
even released yet, with something that is.....
You can flap your lips all you like about Vista, but until it is released
anything you flap about is pure speculation on your part.
Apparently, flatfish is claiming that any comparisons
(memory, performance, beauty, number of BSODs/month, etc.)
between Linux and Vista are invalid until the final version
of Vista, stripped of all debug code and optimized for
speed, memory usage, and profits, comes out. :-)
At least, that's how I read flatfish's logic. Whether
that's accurate logic or not, I for one cannot say at all,
although it looks reasonable prima facie.
In any event, the actual X server can run in as low as 16
megs (system RAM, not video card RAM). It won't run all
that *well*, of course ... but it will run.
(One easy test, if one has more than one box: run nothing but an
X server and maybe a very lightweight window manager such as twm
on the one box, and have the clients running on another box.)

Windows Vista. Because it's time to refresh your hardware. Trust us.
Idiot. Figures a lintard moron like you would try to compare a shipping
product against a beta with debug code in it.
Idiot. Figures a lintard moron like you would try to compare a shipping
So, do you think that when they take out the debug code, the memory usage
will go up? (Hint: maybe you should actually understand what someone is
saying before you call them a moron).

That is correct.
Woah. Even XGL is lower than that.

It's /always/ permissible to call a luser/lintard an 'idiot'.
Haha! Thanks for the chuckle. By the way, in KDE (I know that you prefer
GNONE), there is a nice graphical front end to top and its siblings.
CTRL+ESC to bring it up.
Here'e my usage in real time (10 minutes between refreshes):

You're an idiot too, my x server is the one that use 200m, not vista's
dwm.
Screw yourself!
Yes, there seems to be serious leak from nvidia's x driver. It begines
with 29MB but increase up to 150m+ RES and then crashes, so now I have
to restart xorg at least every week, not to mention frequent crash of
the xfwm svn snapshot, too bad none of the win-idiots understand what
I'm talking about :)

We don't have to.
Out Nvidia driver works fine.
You're not running a translucent desktop, clueless dickhead!
True to form here comes the name calling.
You COLA nuts act just like rats when cornered.
FWIW, you are correct I am not running a translucent desktop and the
reason why is because it is totally counterproductive to getting any work
done.
The concept might be interesting from an eye candy POV but working on such
a desktop is ridiculous.

You're in no position to complain about name-calling, flatty.

I give it right back to them.....
You should let your ISP know that they have an open port problem.
nmap 220.135.10.97
Starting Nmap 4.03 ( http://www.insecure.org/nmap/ ) at 2006-05-20 11:15 CDT
Interesting ports on 220-135-10-97.HINET-IP.hinet.net (220.135.10.97):
(The 1662 ports scanned but not shown below are in state: filtered)
PORT STATE SERVICE
21/tcp open ftp
22/tcp open ssh
23/tcp open telnet
80/tcp open http

3389/tcp open ms-term-serv
8080/tcp closed http-proxy
9999/tcp open abyss

Very bad security on that one.

That's way over what I'm getting, even under load (though I'm not
currently doing anything that intensive, so the screenshot is
only representing my normal desktop usage).

Ignore the forger.
You just won't give up, will you forger.
