Ubuntu 9.04 Daily Build Boots In 21.4 Seconds 654

Pizzutz writes "Softpedia reports that Ubuntu 9.04 Boots in 21.4 Seconds using the current daily build and the newly supported EXT4 file system. From the article: 'There are only two days left until the third Alpha version of the upcoming Ubuntu 9.04 (Jaunty Jackalope) will be available (for testing), and... we couldn't resist the temptation to take the current daily build for a test drive, before our usual screenshot tour, and taste the "sweetness" of that evolutionary EXT4 Linux filesystem. Announced on Christmas Eve, the EXT4 filesystem is now declared stable and it is distributed with version 2.6.28 of the Linux kernel and later. However, the good news is that the EXT4 filesystem was implemented in the upcoming Ubuntu 9.04 Alpha 3 a couple of days ago and it will be available in the Ubuntu Installer, if you choose manual partitioning.' I guess it's finally time to reformat my /home partition..."

First of all, I am an PC person, i love the AMD CPUs, all my pcs from the 386 has been from AMD, except one. I won't tell you what how bad that computer was, because i don't want to remember, I will never again buy an cpu from intel, however that's not relevant to this thread at all, only as an sidenote, I have never owned an Mac, i probably never will either.

The thing is this guy, first of all his homepage has bla bla bla name whatever his name was Windows site whatever thingy logo on the top. Interesting. Could this possible be a Windows (ass) licker? Seriously. Just look at the points he gives. Ok the new Windows Vista search engine can do this and that, and whatever the mac name is can do the same. Only that Microsoft announced it to the public first. Does this mean that Microsoft was first to try to implement it, or does it mean that Apple has higher standards in releasing info to the public?

Lots of questions arrise when I read his text, most of them is, wtf is he talking about. And ok, that's not an major os update, but has apple said it was?

Operating systems is one thing and bundled applications is another. It's like Microsoft would say: Hey we have made this mayor OS upgrade: now you can push ctrl+s to save documents in notepad. (actually they did talk about the new features in notepad when they announced the beta of windows 2000 in Sweden).

However, I don't think this guy is an reliable information source he seems much to much like an "I like getting spyware and stupid adware on my computer, hell that gives me free porn, I ejaculates everytime i push that little sweet button on my computer and it takes 30 minutes to boot and the first thing I have to do is to look at 6004598 porn pictures before I can do anything on my computer."

This has most likely been covered before and I am sorry if I used "bad" language.
