Ok where do I start?

At "The Non-Existent Foulmouther's Marathon". The folks there really need someone of your potential and guts.

Clutter?

Here's my desktop...running 7 tabs and 2 side docks. In my Widgets tab there are about 60 links... OBDesktop has 26...Utilities has 32...Apps has 17....Games has 12....Internet has 8....Main has 3. On my side docks which are hidden there are 12 each. Where's the clutter on the desktop? The only thing you see are the tabs.


Haha....you beat me to it WebGizmos.
BTW, what wallpaper is that?

Use Rocketdock and some of your crayons and draw you some tabs.

twice the memory to run compared to Rocketdock.


Yep,you're right there.I have both on now and show RD=4,728k vs.OD=11,244k.That's with OD allocated all it wants to use,it is configurable to use less memory if needed.
If your computer can't take a 6,516 k hit in ram use ,you need more than tabs.Maybe your PC smart friends tuned your system for you?Come to think of it, why don't they make you some tabbed docks? Then you won't need RD or OD.

I have friends that know more about computers than anyone here on the site.


Yeah,right!There are programmers,IT people and software designers and engineers on WC that started out with an abacus. If your friends are that smart,what are they doing associating with you?You're Crazy
Sorry,I.R.B. didn't see your reply

Lastly, all this Stardock crap is just bloatware. Any serious PC person knows this. I have friends that know more about computers than anyone here on the site. Some of the shit they can do and the knowledge they have...it'll blow your mind. They too even think Stardock is bloatware.


Firstly, when your friends are Microsoft Gold Certified as Stardock is then maybe what they think will matter to us.

I have WindowBlinds, IconPackager, RightClick, CursorFX and ObjectDock Plus ( all settings set for performance, all maxed out.) running on a system with a 2.4 gig Celeron with 1 gig of ram that only runs at 266 due to the Celeron, I have no slow down, sluggishness or lag issues at all. In fact WindowBlinds is faster than running default XP Luna.

That isn't surprising. Especially if it's the default Windows theme. I respect Microsoft for it's lack of design/UI efforts. If Windows looked cool, nobody would use WindowBlinds. Thanks MS!

Yeah
Even seabass is a liar

And I thought he asked you to shut that foul mouth too. I can't see how that's lying.

No offense, but please consider being polite at the least. Instead of "Even seabass is a liar", try using "I think Seabass is incorrect on one of the points he mentioned in his post". What Seabass said was probably the most correct reply in the thread.

Look. WinCustomize/Stardock proved its point, and so did you.
Now get up from rolling on the floor laughing, and call your Super-Ultra-Mega-Tech-Geeks for an alternative. You don't have to post here if all you can do is tell others that they're liars.

Hello g52,

As a Best Buy employee I can tell you that although we may not prefer people to have internet access on the display machines, we often connect them to the network for demo reasons, etc. And although Best Buy may not like 3rd party software on the machines, I guarantee you it's been done. Seabass made some good points as to the merits of the features of ObjectDock Plus (love the app Stardock, keep it up!) but you somehow seem to think that your personal opinion should sway the development. That's like calling out Microsoft because the background in Office '07 is blue and not green. It's foolish and asinine to think that your own thoughts on what is good for you and not others should be the absolute guide by which the app should be developed.

Lastly, all this Stardock crap is just bloatware. Any serious PC person knows this. I have friends that know more about computers than anyone here on the site. Some of the shit they can do and the knowledge they have...it'll blow your mind. They too even think Stardock is bloatware.


WHAT? Are you freakin' serious! You fail HARD with that BS. This entire site is for people who enjoy OS customization and customization software, of which Stardock's apps are basically the industry standard. You may as well have trolled on to a site for bikers and told them all that leather and long beards are for sissy girls. This entire community is going to come down hard on BS like that. Who cares what your alleged friends think about computers. If they're so against it, why use it in the first place? Sounds to me like someone needs a time out and a big glass of be-quiet-and-talk-when-you-fail-less. Plus, anyone who describes someone with technical knowledge of any kind as "knowing a bunch about computers" should be beat about the face with a rake. I bet my friends know a billion-kajillion times more about computers than yours anyways!
