"Firefox is better than IE," OR vice versa, or, "X software is better than the other X software,"
So you're saying that windows 2000 is not better than DOS6? Sometimes software is better than other software (Oracle vs Access), and if you dint think thats the case than you are exposing your ignorance...
aw, buzz off.
ROFL
There are still dentists' offices, doctors' offices and shrinks' offices, as an example, ( there are many more, ) whose main, frontline software which controls their whole business is DOS based and some of them are running versions of DOS prior to 6.22.
Why don't you ask them if Win2k is "better?"
Now do you get my point?
Sheesh!
I just wish that people would get over the "penis size comparisons," thinly veiled as "my OS/Browser/Email/application is better than yours!"
Geez! A COMPUTER IS A TOOL. DIFFERENT TOOLS ARE GOOD FOR DIFFERENT THINGS!Is Windows 2000 beter than DOS6? Well, it depends on what it is that you're doing! If you're running certain types of apps, DOS is actually better, especially if you're using a legacy application, custom written with network APIs and some oddball memory extender that Win32 programs barf on, for your company by a programmer who is long dead!
The best OS is the one that helps you get your job done most efficiently!

You know, this was something that's really bothered me for a long time.
Maybe you'd care to explain exactly how Oracle is "better" than Access.
I have never had any problem with people who say application X better suits my needs than application Y. But (other than when there's a version rev that fixes problems - without introducing new ones) it's ignorant to make the blanket statement that application X is "better" than application Y.
For instance, let's say you don't have a server to run Oracle for your small business... Is it still better than Access? Or let's say you do have a server, but it doesn't run an OS that Oracle needs to run on. Or you can't afford to pay an Oracle DBA.
