Windows 8 copy features (looks familiar)

Forum thread started by ribbonz on Sun, 2011-09-11 14:55

Ok, so Microsoft is releasing a whole series of vids touting the new features of Windows 8...

here's one on improved file copy actions:

Hey -- putting several copy operations into a single dialog with multiple floodbars -- who would have ever thought of that?
(um, Be, about 16 years ago). Well, at least they're finally catching up.

Ok, we don't have that "details" view where you can see the copy stats in a graphical display. It is slick, although it seems to be a feature that's more "cool" than actually useful.

That last feature, the conflict resolution, is actually quite nice. The ability to see the list of conflicted files and pick and choose which one to use would be a very slick feature to add to Tracker. Of course, if you had hundreds (let alone thousands) of conflicts, then this wouldn't be so nice -- more like a nightmare. But for simple cases with only a few conflicted files, this would be a great feature.

Haiku is very fast at booting, but it seems Winows 8, did a good job.

Celebrating the big 10

Forum thread started by _be on Wed, 2011-08-17 09:54

I guess most of you will be aware that on the 18th (ie. tomorrow) Haiku turns 10!

If any of you is in Vienna, me and a fellow Haiku/BeOS-fan will be in the Sofa bar in Lindengasse to celebrate. (Let's say nineish)

For those of you not in Vienna I propose you do the same. Let's celebrate Haiku's birthday pervasively.
