Please keep in mind that lots of people want intros, so you request may take a long time.

There is a project called Pseudoform that I wou’d like to call out to the visitors of this site, it’s really cool and can do lots of cool stuff.

There isin’t much support now so I sugest that you head over there, they got a github up at:

Here are some videos:

Minecraft rollercoasters anyone?

Sam Turrets suck… TRUST ME

Well I’ve not coded in a long time, so.. I guess that I should get back to buisness. SO…. what next?

Please keep in mind that this is my opinion, and that this information might not be correct in every aspect.

Linux

First of all we have Linux, a lightweight, fast, and versatile operating system, which is completely free. Its main focus is to be as open as possible, to give users all that they need, straight from install, and to create a community which only interest is to make it better. (Not farm the money from consumers)Linux has many distributions. It has no “registry” like in Windows, so that means fewer errors, speed, and that it shouldn’t get slower over time due to registry errors. Networking with Linux is easy and super compatible; it can connect even with Windows networks! Its distributions are different versions of this operating system. Most of those distributions offer pre-installed freeware such as Open Office for productivity. Ranging from geek – to user friendly, there’s probably a distribution just for you!

Linux is almost virus free today, as most viruses are targeted to Windows users, and Linux is completely open, as viruses can be fixed in minutes, and sent to the world through the community. Rather than detecting viruses and stopping them with 3^rd party virus scanners, Linux becomes immune by the fixes that the community makes.

When it comes to compatibility with drivers, Linux is simple; you can install drivers from anywhere, and anyone (rather than requiring it to be signed by Microsoft). Linux also supports many Windows programs. With an application called Wine, you can run many Windows programs fine.

In terms of versatility, you can do anything. Period. There’s a wide range of applications which allow you to customize the GUI, and much more. A good example of this would be Compiz Fusion. It is an OpenGL based GUI window management system which allows you to do many cool things such as:

• Tabbing and grouping Windows
• 4 or more desktops with a 3d interface
• Eye candy
• Easy file searching
• Easy navigation
• And much more

The bottom line

Linux is the fastest, most versatile, and cheapest (free!)  Operating system which is constantly supported, easily updated, upgraded, and migrated. The only con of this amazing operating system is that as of right now, there are certain OS Exclusives that cannot run (such as Adobe Premier and games such as Portal) but this is being worked on right now so that application migration is seamless. It has a bad reputation to be the “nerdiest” and hardest to use, but that is quickly changing.

Windows 7

If you’re looking for a good all around operating system, then Windows is for you. Windows has an easy to understand interface that just works. Searching for a program or files is easy, just click on the Windows logo. Managing programs that are running and launching new ones is easy with the new taskbar on the bottom. It’s fast enough, relatively stable, and has the most software and games written for it, which is a huge plus, and gives it the only advantage over Linux. (For now) Windows has bad and good rep, since Vista was extremely unstable, and slow, but Windows 7 seems to fix that.

Networking with Windows 7 is easy, provided that you have other computers running Windows 7. That is a big letdown, as many people are deciding to stick with XP. Again, this is the proprietary networking system that Windows uses, a closed system. (Which is why Linux is so great, it’s open)

The way Windows (vista and up) works with searches is really nice, you can find almost any file instantaneously, and it works with emails, and other Microsoft software. This is due to the fast indexing system that it uses.

The biggest feature of Windows isn’t a feature at all; it’s the fact that it has software and games developed for it. An operating system by itself is nothing without developer/game developer support. Windows has the most games developed for it, compared with Linux and Mac OS.

With security, if Windows wasn’t the most attacked, it would be the most secure, but it’s not. Since Windows has the most users, the viruses, and malware are targeted to Windows. It does an okay job at stopping them, but often 3^rd party software is needed.

The bottom line

Windows is a great all around OS, if you want to not worry about compatibility, drivers, or hardware, Windows is the way to go. Although many other Linux like options, they will soon become more compatible. Windows is currently, probably the best option, simply because of gaming and compatibility.

Mac OS

                Mac OS: the best platform for simple media creation, and bundled software. Mac has lots of great, easy to use software to create: productivity documents, music, movies, and manage: music, photos, etc. When it comes to music, Mac comes with Garage-Band; a user-friendly music creation program. When it comes to movies, Mac comes with iMovie, a user-friendly movie creation program. Well, you get the point. The software bundled with every Mac is powerful, and easy to use.

                When it comes to hardware compatibility, this is where Mac fails to amaze, it runs only on expensive proprietary hardware. It’s not for the cheap. Although, it is a good investment of money if you really want to get lots of multimedia done fast without any holdups.

                Mac’s hardware is usually up to date and fast, and includes usually lots of extra stuff (like Bluetooth). This is a plus, but you better be getting that from the money that you spend on that beast. It’s pretty “out of the box” compatible.

                The user interface is friendly, but I would consider complaining that it doesn’t have the easy searching function. But this is usually solved with the massive screen that is on the Mac with a large desktop.

                With security, Mac is pretty good at deflecting attacks. There aren’t really many viruses directed to Macs, so this isn’t really an issue.

The bottom line

If you some spare cash and you want to buy a great computer that will probably do everything that you want it to do out of the box, buy a Mac. Unless you really want to play games (then you would have to buy Windows) it’s a great option because of the stability, speed, and security. And you can run Windows on it too.
