Songs From The OS

Wednesday, March 12th, 2008

Somebody took the sound effects from Windows 98/XP and turned them into a song. Some other person did the same with Mac OSX. I like the Windows one better, because it has more variation. Both sound very cool, but are very boring to watch. Notably missing is one for Linux.

Some people have too much time on their hands. Except me, obviously, since I only had time to post this.

Some Feelings

I am posting a link to this article, simply to spread the sentiment with others. I would very much love for Microsoft’s market share to be traded with various Linux and UNIX distros. How much better off consumers would be if the attitude that we should bend over and take what Microsoft gives us was replaced by Open Source philosophy. I hope Microsoft’s market share gets smaller and smaller, until they no longer have the power to cram DRM and other crap down our throats.

This isn’t necessarily a vote for Apple either. Don’t misunderstand, as great as their stuff is, they still DRM media. They just aren’t nearly as bad as Microsoft.

Microsoft’s Take On Openness

Here we have a list of web pages detailing why Microsoft is bad. I mean, how retarded can you get?! For those of you who don’t know, Microsoft is attempting to “legitimately” force an open XML implementation through the ISO (International Standards Committee). The standard, if one applies to term quite loosely, only differentiates itself from OpenDocument format.
