I'm running Isadora 9. You just can't beat the visual effects and features! I actually used Windows months ago, and I hate it now. What bugged me most was the inability to force quit ANYTHING...

It's called Task Manager :na:

Wow I thought everyone was going to say mac I didn't know so many people used win 7 ultimate not to mention 64 bit :)

Why would anyone subject themselves to using a Mac?

Okay, it's not that bad, but not good value for me, and doesn't run what I want.

I run Windows 7 64-bit Pro, and some Ubuntu Linux VMs when I need to use Linux.

Task manager is the worst, lol. Haven't you ever seen, "This program is not responding. End now?", then you click it, nothing happens.

Thanks to Diachi for this one!

You're doing it wrong :na: That only happens when you try to close a not responding program normally.
Going to "Processes" in task manager and ending the process always exits the program no matter what.

That pic is lulz tho :crackup:

Nick's right, you have to go to processes and kill it, it'l instantly DIE.
edit: LOL just noticed the task manager wasn't responding, I didn't notice that. So just ctrl alt del and open another task manager lol.



I use Windows 7 Professional 64-bit.

Haven't got around to dual booting Ubuntu 10.04 yet... I did with 9.10 on my laser computer.

I still want to learn to turn my computer into a hackintosh (dual boot of course), anyone know any easy, simple to understand guides without millions of steps?

I don't know what that is, but it's really easy to make gnome linux look like OS X. My current theme:

oo that looks cool it reminds me of android for some reason I use every version of windows you can name (except BOB, chicago, and the really old windows') I use it on one computer too. By using windows xp mode on windows 7 I can use virtual PC 2007 on windows xp to run every other version of windows there is
