A shitload of companies use java. I guess the difference is that most is server side on Tomcat, rather than client side... so the user doesn't have to gently caress around with their own VM.

Factor Mystic posted:Unbelievable. Java makes sites that aren't even using it slower. Who uses Java in a site anymore anyway? Not even sites. Opening a new tab actually lags a second after I hit ctrl-T with the Java plugin enabled. No lag when its disabled. Terrible.

Does anyone use a Logitech Harmony universal remote? I can't get the software to work. I've tried compatibility mode for almost every older OS and have run/installed it with admin rights, but it just shows a blank (grey) window. It might be something to do with flash, because I think that's what it uses to render the contents. Remote software 7.5, Windows build 7100.

Checked their support forums? They are pretty good.

Whats the dual monitor software of choice for 7? Is the Vista version of it solid? I'm concerned that the superbar will kind of screw with it edit: Just tried ultramon for Vista and it doesn't work at all. The Wonder Weapon fucked around with this message at 03:01 on Jun 13, 2009 |

Stuntman Mike posted:What about Apples 64-bit only Safari 4 in Snow Leopard? BLACK MAGIC Yes, but at this point, every copy of Safari 4 for OSX will BE 64bit. It's not even something like a 50/50 split like Windows would be with a lot of adoption - it's straight up 100% of all future macs and the majority of Intel macs in general. It's the major advantage of Apple's model - they control all hardware and software sales, so they can do things like move everyone to 64bit. It also helps that Apples tend to be rebought and updated more often than Windows machines (As of last year, we still had a 600mhz server running Windows 2000 at work.)

BLACK MAGIC Maybe it will force adobe to get off their asses and fix their poo poo. 64bit systems aren't exactly bleeding edge technology. I'm personally hoping that they've considered the problem, and developed their own flash player.

STFU Pumpkinhead posted:I play EVE in a fullscreen 1680x1050 window. Can I selectively turn off the titlebar functionality that positions the full bar in view? Similarly, how do I set the taskbar to not have always-on-top priority? Whenever a window is positioned to be truly full-screen, Explorer automatically detects this and will hide the taskbar while that window is active. You can use EveMon or ShiftWindow to turn off the titlebar for EVE and make it full-screen windowed.

You can also override compatibility checking by adding a boolean field "extensions.checkCompatibility" to about :config and setting it to false.

Windows 7 made my lenovo w500 laptop infinitely better. Although Windows 7 contributed slightly I think it has more to do with the absence of factory installed lenovo bloatware. That said, I've had no problems other than getting the combo discrete/integrated graphics issue set (bios setting).

cowofwar posted:Windows 7 made my lenovo w500 laptop infinitely better. Although Windows 7 contributed slightly I think it has more to do with the absence of factory installed lenovo bloatware. I had insane issues with Vista performance on my T60p for two years. Even though I had run Vista at home since it retailed with very few issues I sorta blamed the problem on Vista anyway. A couple months before I finally installed the Win7 RC I finally got sick of the huge issues I had and investigated a little deeper. To my chagrin I finally hit the "show processes from all users" button in Task Manager and discovered that some old version of a lenovo backup utility (that I wasn't even using to back up anything) was constantly using 50% of the CPU (100% of one of my cores). This is after I had faithfully run Lenovo update utility for a year to make sure I took advantage of any software updates. With a clean install of Windows 7 RC and a bare minimum install of needed Lenovo drivers and software this thing runs great.

I just looked at this page again and it's been over 1000 posts since I last read it  I hope this hasn't been answered before, and I searched google but maybe I'm asking the wrong questions. Can somebody tell me, what is the brown lock thing seen on some folders in windows 7? Looking in the properties I can see it has something to do with permissions, and it's attributes are hidden i guess? It's not a big problem, mostly it's just aesthetically displeasing.I do remember trying to do something in documents and settings (while running admin) and being told to gently caress off but I can't remember what it was for the life of me. Anyway, I'm really sorry if this has come up before.

Random tip: Pressing shift while right-clicking an application in the taskbar brings up the old restore/move/minimize/close/etc menu. Handy because the "move" option is absent from the new one.

Just installed Windows 7 and it seems to run nicely, though I really need to get used to that glossy interface.. I'm so used to the old grey look. But still I was wondering why it won't give me the rights to change stuff on my external HDD (like renaming folders) although this works fine under any Vista Computer. Also, does anyone know a good office suite? Wordpad doesn't open 'dem .doc files correctly, Openoffice won't even install (tried 3.0.1) and the MS Office is a trial version... Thankies!

OpenOffice is at 3.1. If it "doesn't install", then fix your computer. Also, what Windows 7 "glossy" interface are you talking about? The interface is the same as it has been in Windows since 2006.

Well my 7 install hosed up again. I disabled the local area connection (trying to create a new one) and it froze. Had to hard reset, hangs at welcome screen. Safemode with network hangs at welcome and without, it hangs as soon as the little network icon pops up in the tray. Funnily enough, the same thing happened (previously) with my XP install and all I did was re-enable the network connection in safe mode. Still, I didn't lose anything, just time to reinstall.

You do realize you can get a 60 day trial of Office in any version from Home and Student to Enterprise, and that you can keep getting new 60 day trial keys by changing your email address? Making a new email address to use for an office key every 60 days until you can afford a nice cheap copy of Home and Student (which IS licensed for 3 computers, so you can go halfs or thirds on it with some other people) isn't so bad.
