I'd like to know just how many people they plan to pay full-time to approve/reject all of these edits. How many changes are made to Wikipedia in an HOUR? No way they'd ever be able to keep up. It will quickly change over to the Youtube/Yahoo Answers system... someone flags/reports your work enough, it gets automatically removed and they pretend someone actually modded it.

Comment Boot times have never been an issue for me... (Score 1) 326

Under 1 minute to boot Vista is fine with me. I get in, turn my laptop on, and by the time I've got my coat hung up, I'm at the login screen. Not even enough time to go to the bathroom. When did it become a bad thing that your computer starts up faster than the amount of time it takes to microwave something? FFS, 56k modems take longer to connect than it takes for a modern computer to boot.

Comment The Chainsaw (Score 2, Funny) 205

I don't really want to go through the horror of listening through all those sound files, but from my own personal experience I don't think "the chainsaw" is on there. When my hard drive crashed, it started with a soft noise which within 30 seconds built to an extremely loud noise akin to a chainsaw, before suddenly and completely seizing up.
