  1. Microsoft Office '03 (self-explanatory)

    K-lite Mega Codec

    MediaCoder

    Yahoo Messenger (for chatting with friends/officemates/classmates/etc and for sending/receiving files in a snap)

    Adobe Reader 9 Lite

    Firefox

    Orbit Downloader

    Nero

    PowerArchiver

    Kaspersky Anti-virus (for killing my bro's accidental minions)

    Adobe Photoshop CS3 (required for making some banners)

    And lastly... games. My desktop would simply be a boring box of silicon without it.

  2. Well I run into space problems in my flash disk/MP3 player with 2GB capacity. I stack it up with 200mb+ installers so choosing what is better in performance is the goal I'm currently looking for.

  3. I've been using Firefox 3.1b2pre for some weeks now. I did some benchmarks on FF3.0 vs FF3.1 with jit and I pretty much found slight difference in terms of performance. I ran into problems in the V8 Benchmark Suite in FF3.1+jit. The print dialog keeps popping up, thus lowering the score in the benchmark. The add-ons were no problem as long as the extension compatibility is disabled. I might run a test again when FF3.1 20081015 is released and post some screenshots...

  4. That's because they are both very fast.

    Well, I guess it will be a tough time choosing the one to keep. I always thought Opera would always be faster than Firefox without the help of benchmarks. Now I don't see the difference in the naked eye. :mellow:

  5. I've found Vista a tweaker's toy. I've played with my dad's Vista with most of OEM crap filling up the RAM. I say it's just pretty decent, with all the resource-monger eye-candy stuff. After tinkering with it, I was able to reduce the memory consumption and increase the performance a bit. It basically needs improvements, from performance to resource usage.

     

    It reminds me of ME's days. :(

  6. There are fewer than 1,527 people in the U.S. with my first name.

    There are 2,656 people in the U.S. with my last name.

    There are 1 or fewer people in the U.S. named.......

     

    I'm curious to find my 2,656 relatives in the US :lol:
