Going through some old reel to reel tapes. According to Siri, I'm presently listening to Elvis Presley singing Flaming Star. Who knows how long ago this was recorded, and by whom? It's stereo, at least, unlike some that I've already listened to. Sounds like someone was trying to preserve his vinyl collection before it was totally destroyed, judging by the pops and clicks on the tape.
Updating Windows 7 on one of my PCs.
Microsoft's finest hour.
I've also got a couple of Windows computers that are running Vista, not Microsoft's finest hour.
Now you know why I bought a Mac.
My only PC runs Vista. Right now, I'm using it to record a FLAC rip of Rick Wakeman's Myths and Legends of King Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table onto a 50 year old Philips tape. Listening to the tape monitor suggests it's working quite well.
Actually, that's not my only PC. I have another that runs Windows 98SE, but I don't have a VGA monitor, so I'm content to use it as a beer coaster.
For three years I used my closed Windows XP laptop as a stand for my MacBook Pro.
October 7, 1960.
The song for the movie was recorded in Hollywood, at Radio Recorders.
Windows XP wasn't that bad. We've used it at school for quite a while.
I liked XP. It was very stable. Don't remember any problems, apart from a catastrophic HDD crash which was hardly the fault of the OS.
It was the most successful Windows operating system Microsoft ever released.
Downloading that first batch of updates opened the floodgates. I'm just now doing my 4th batch of updates in the last hour. I no sooner finish one batch when I get a notice saying that there are still more updates.
Finally, after 40 updates, my Windows 7 computer is finally up to date; at least until tomorrow.
Windows 10 isn't any better. Every time I turn on one of our laptops at school, it wants to update.Finally, after 40 updates, my Windows 7 computer is finally up to date; at least until tomorrow.
You mean your school has not discovered the Apple educators' discount?
