  1. But there's the problem; it's NOT user-friendly!

    Nero Express started out as a great way to make its app user-friendly, but after more than a year it's still too complicated. My dad could use it if I teached him, which wasn't possible before. Worst thing is, Nero Express is the only app that comes close to user-friendliness. Nero Convert, parent-friendly? No. Backup? No. VisionExpress? No. They're adding more, more, and more features to their package, while they should be focussing on improving their others.

    ... and then they should release a killer-movie-cinema-app. :P

  2. I can give you a invite for gmail beta.

    No i have it 4 gmail i ment the HOTMAIL beta :lol:

    but while were at it, whats the best webbased mail program

    Gmail

    Hotmail

    Yahoo

    Inbox.com

    Mail Beta(Hotamil)

    Mail Beta(Yahoo)

    Other

    I out my vote but if i were to vote it would be gmail

    Depends really.

    Gmail:

    + unlimited space (in the rare case your inbox is full, wait a few days)

    + Great POP3 access

    + Best interface of all (cleanest)

    + Lightning fast

    - Some attachments aren't accepted

    - Can't apply filters on already received e-mail

    - Very rarely doesn't group conversations as they should

    ++++ Leaded to other webmails to be redesigned

    Hotmail:

    + Easy integration with Outlook (Thunderbird only supports INBOX, no other folders).

    + Easy import of Outlook contacts

    - MSN Messenger integration

    - Bad e-mail client support

    - Bad browser support (no tabs)

    - Very bad and slow javascript

    - Slow alltogether

    - In-your-face ads

    - Other bloat

    - Catches too much "spam"

    Yahoo!:

    + Somewhat okay POP3 access

    + Pretty clean interface

    + Fairly fast

    - Alot of bloat next to Inbox

    - Catches too much "spam"

    - Lets through spam

    New Yahoo!:

    + New interface

    + tabs

    + less ads

    - Same SPAM problems, current accounts already screwed by this

    New Hotmail (by reports):

    + Rewrite from scratch

    + XUL + AJAX = Firefox/Opera powah!

    + Drag 'n drop

    + Has some must-come-to-gmail features

    - but even more bloat that I will never user

    - more integration of MSN Spaces/MSN/Calendar/Contacts. No!

    Inbox.com:

    + Adless (could be adblock tho)

    + Okay interface

    - nothing special

    30gigs:

    + 30 gigs, call it unlimited

    - Interface ain't that good

    - Slow

    So, I call:

    1. Gmail

    2. 30gigs

    3. Inbox.com

    4. Yahoo! (new+old)

    5. Hotmail (new+old)

    although I'm only satisfied about the first. The interface just rocks.

  3. Just for the heck of it;

    0.9a (06-10)

    - Added support for multiple drives

    - Added /f parameter for the to-be-inserted disc

    - Updated eject/close mechanism

    - Rehauled drivechecking code

    - Rehauled discchecking code

    - Rehauled Silent Mode

    - Rehauled Environment Mode a wee bit

    - Removed *DRIVE* support for /s and /p

    - Made /r-*DRIVE* dynamic

    - Made drivechecking earlier

    - Updates, updates, updates...

    What's new? Probably a s***load of bugs, because I had to rewrite close to everything. Oh well, that's why I create alpha's right? :)

    First off, I did a first go at implementing support for multiple drives. You know have three options:

    1. The old method, you know, just specify one drive.

    2. Use all drives. Just type "all" instead of a drive.

    3. Specify the drive(s) to be used. Seperate them with a "!":

    cdswitch blah D:!F:

    You can still use the old detection methods, and as many drives as you want:

    cdswitch D:!2!/g:"WindowsCD1"!/f:"CD1.txt"

    Second, you can now specify to scan for file instead of label. Just use the "/f:" parameter as you would for the detection of the drive:

    cdswitch D: /f:"CD2.txt"

    It automatically adds the driveletter in front of it, so if "CD2.txt" is in the folder "apps":

    cdswitch D: /f:"apps\CD2.txt"

    That's it for now, download it here.

  5. @chessonly: Sure, you can have arguments (you even did your research) but only by the way you're saying all this makes it clear you will never like Firefox better, even if it's an exact clone of Opera, a wee bit faster. I'm getting annoyed by people bashing Firefox (or Opera, it can be the other way around). Not just useful bashing, but bashing because "my product is better! if I use it, it has to be the best!".

    If you use Firefox, Opera, Safari, whatever... I don't care. The only thing I care about is my sites working on every browser, and that I don't have to find all sorts of nifty hacks to make it work on MSIE. Or even better, I care about accessing all sites, displayed CORRECTLY. Why all this Opera <-> Firefox stuff? Why do you find fighting for 5% marketshare against eachother usefull? Firefox made it possible for more websites to be standard compliant, it made it possible for more browsers to be accepted. Now if Opera can gain its marketshare (NEXT to Firefox, not FROM Firefox) the web will only improve. Stop trying to convert users from the other browser, start converting users from MSIE.

    Edit; heh, just a rant. No offense. :P
