  1. I am using Windows XP professional as my primary Operatin System.I am using it since 2003. A very good operatin system.i am using Ubuntu as my secondary operating system. Very nice and easylinux OS. Using these two in Dual Booting mode.Also I am using Damn Small Linux and Some other linux OSs in VM Ware.But not as regularly as WinXP and Ubuntu.
  2. It is impossible to conform java is better than .net or vice versa. So its not a surprise you get different answers for this question. It depends on the person who you ask. Here are some major differences between Java and .Net from some website Well, we can list 100's of these types of differences. Both has its own advantages and disadvantages. So, my suggestion is, instead of trying to figure out which is better, try to learn both. As far as I know, Development in .Net is quicker and easier when compared to Java. But to choose one for your company, Get some information on which development framework is widely used in your company. Choose that one, as you can get more support and help learning that framework. Its easy to get help from others. And also, you'll easily assigned to projects. Well, this is just my opinion. Choose wisely. Don't depend on others opinions.
  3. My all time favourite softwares are1. Opera...The Words fastest browser. I love Opera. I am using it since 2003 and never think of an alternative.2. Ulead PhotoImpact.. Very easy and most effective Photo Editing software. This is very easy compared to photoshop and very effective as well.3. Real Player. I love music and using Real Player for all my mp3 needs. Really quality is excellent with DFX plugin.
  4. When you've earned enough points you can redeem them and get a visa gift card or paypal money transfer for out of US users... It is from their faq. If you have anydoubts go through their faq.
  5. Hey, nice idea. My mother tongue is Telugu (One of the widely spoken languages in India). In our language, we say "Nenu Ninnu Premisthunnanu" Nenu means I. Ninnu means You. Premisthunnanu means doing Love (Its a verb, and its present tense). Ninnu Nenu Premisthunnanu is same as Nenu Ninnu Premisthunnanu. No difference in meaning.
  6. To be frank.......waste of time to depend on it. It may be useful for the following regions. US, Canada, UK, France, Germany, Italy, Netherlands, Poland and Spain. They will get $25 for every 6500 points they get. And 1 search=1 point. And a maximum of 100 points per day. So people in the above countries may reach the limit easily. But for all other regions the point system is ridiculous. For them $5 for 50000 points. Is it worth? They have to search 14 months daily on this website just for $5. I think it is not worth for people for all other regions not mentioned above. I just joined it and left immediately. Of course, you can use it for searching. You'll get results from three top search engines google, yahoo and msn in a single page.
  7. I too tried many websites.......from online surveys to paid emails and sms's.None of them work well. The amount you get in your account(not in paypal account,but in their website account) is very very less.I tried seriously for some email reading websites like emailpays4u.com etc...Initially they will credited some amount in your account(in their account).And you have to get a minimum limit to redeem your money. (usuallu $20 etc.)But it is very hard to reach that limit. Because you'll be paid very very less amount($0.001) for every mail(advertisement) you read. And all of the mails(advertisements) are same likepaid to read etc...I don't think we can reach their limit.So they are completely useless......and time wasting. Bette we can focus our time in ourtalents and that will definitely increases our income in future.
  8. Hi innosia. Yeah. I like meditation. But never had any weird experience.Do you have any? If so what is that? Share with me. And where are youfrom?
  9. Prince Of Persia (Warrior within) is my favourite game. I like the introduction of the Prince very much. And its theme and difficulty is very good. After Prince Of PersiaMax Payne 2 is my hot favourite. A very intelligent game. Simple Love story. And interesting fights etc...After thesemy most favourite games are1. Recoil2. Spider Man3. The Mummy
  10. I am using Opera.......The worlds fastest browser. I am using opera for 5 years...and still using it. Now I am using Opera 9.52. Their latest version. I simply love opera for its fast, and simple user interface. And its cache management is really excellent. If you click back button, you will see the page instantly because it is loaded from cache. I tried many browsers and convinced that opera is the best. I am using Firefox as my secondary browser. Some very good features(in my opinion) in opera. 1. Speed Dial....you can access your 9 favourite websites with a single click(with image preview). 2. Mouse gestures. (We can do things by just moving our mouse) 3. Duplicat the tab...with a simple mouse gesture you can duplicate the currently using tab. 4. Session Manager. 5. Crash recovery...You can recover the current session of browsing automatically after a system crash (due to OS , or power failure etc...) 6. Inbuilt bittorrent client.( But in my opinion it is better to have other bittorrent client, as it is not possible to control the in coming and out going speed of torrents in opera's inbuilt client. And not as much fast as other dedicated torrent clients like utorrent, bittorrent etc.., in my opinion) And Opera has widgets, like extensions in FireFox. Almost all extensions for firefox are available for opera also as widgets.. And many more features. Of coures, many of these are available as extensions in Firefox, but they are inbuilt in Opera. So you don't have to download them as extensions. And the latest feature, ad blocking and built in bit torrent client are very handy. Security is very good also. Thats why I use Opera. After Opera I like Firefox . But I don't like IE at all. It may be the most useless browser I think.
  11. Caution: 1. Do not practice meditation when you are ill or when your body feels lazy and tried. 2. You should not meditate when your mind is extremely upset or grief-stricken. 3. Avoid meditation when you are hungry. 4. You should not meditate with a full stomach because it will impair your digestion. After a heavy meal there is more blood circulation in the stomach to assist digestion. In all these situations it is hard to concentrate your mind. Ideally, your stomach should at least be half-empty when you meditate.
  12. I am learning meditation. And I am giving details here refering to many books, and I am giving only very important details by skipping very hard practices.
  13. Cricket. The most favourite sport in our country and the most Professional sport in the world.I am playing cricket since my childhood. A very interesting sport. No equipment needed except a bat and a ball, and some of our friends. We really enjoy the game. Cricket is heart beat for 100crore people in India. Its simply a religion in our country.
  14. The First 2 steps, Yama and Niyama, purify and strengthen our minds through moral and ethical exercises. The 3rd step, Asana is assuming postures that allow us to sit comfortably and meditate for at least an hour. The 4th step, Pranayama, is a breathing technique to control our mental and physical energies. The 5th step, Pratyahara, is withdrawing our minds from all objects other than the objects of meditation. The 6th step, Dharana is holding our minds with great concentration onthe objects of meditation. The 7th step, Dhyana, is a more mature form of Dharana. And the 8th step samadhi, is concentration par excellence.

  16. Hmmmm....In my opinion, No, man is not a slave of technology. But he is depending on technology very much. He can't do anything without technology now-a-days. This is just like A Manager who depends on his employees to complete the work. It doesn't mean that he is a slave of his employees, does it? But one thing for sure is,at present we can't imagine our life without a mobile, without a computer etc.. We are depending on technology more than we needed to. ... This made us think that we are not in control of our own life. Well, this is just my personal opinion, what do you think of it guys? Whatever it may be, read these famous n funny quotes...Just For Fun All of the biggest technological inventions created by man - the airplane, the automobile, the computer - says little about his intelligence, but speaks volumes about his laziness. ~Mark Kennedy The real problem is not whether machines think but whether men do. ~B.F. Skinner, Contingencies of Reinforcement, 1969
  17. Hi budyy, i don't know much about music, but consider Mortal Combat theme music,its very inspiring as well as creates some tension.....That movie is completely martial arts based, i had seen it 3 years back, still that is my favourite fighting music...All the best.
  18. For me,VLC media player, and KLC codecs for Multimedia.Ashampoo firewall, its very light and using very small resources in my pc,and Avira Antivirus personal to protect my pc from viruses.Avira is also very good and using low system resources.and AdAware for spyware cleaning.Power defragmenter for my system performance.
  19. Yes. I also tried KGB archiver. Actually i downloaded a file of 2mb kgb archived size,and the source claimed its decompressed size is above 500MB. I tried to decompressit but it took ages and almost all my computer resources. After waiting for some hoursI left it. I tried to compress some small files to test, in normal mode file size is almostsame as that of other compression softwares. But to compress in high ratioit is taking very large amount of time(not just large, but extreemly large).
  20. Ubuntu Linux would be best. Eventhough its minimum configuration requirements for RAMis above 256MB it runs pretty well on 256MB system. I am having 256 MB RAM on my system.And it won't take more than 3GB to install. You need to have more space if you want to downloadany additional softwares. But those inbuilt softwares are mostly enough. Your 1.8GHz processor isalso enough. And also you will be amazed with its user interface. Its Really very good free Linuxdistro.....try it. If you want very very light distro then consider Damn Small Linux. Run fully in RAM with as little as 128MB and very very fast. You can run it from a pen drive(usb drive) or from a live cd.
  21. Just To Test Which Is Best. I am a Windows XP user for 4 years and still using it.And running Ubuntu Linux and XP in dual booting mode. Some of the reasons forusing linux include its free availability, its open source community, and free of viruses. Plus a large amount of applications are available for free of charge on Linux like Gimp image editing tool, Open Office etc... and are built in in linux.
  22. Well, I am using Avira Antivirus personal. It is also free. Previously I used AVG anitvirusfree, but it is lot of resources in my system, it got worse with its 8th version. Then I looked for an alternative and found Avira. I am really satisfied with its protection as well as itsusage of system resources.
  23. Really? I never thought that some people doesn't like dreams. Well, a different concept.But personally, I like dreams. I believe, Today's dream can be Tomorrow's reality. Hey, I want to mention some interesting facts about dreams.1. Blind People Dream.2. You Forget 90% of your Dreams.(Within 5 minutes of waking, half of your dream if forgotten)3. Dreams Prevent Psychosis.4. Everybody Dreams.(except in cases of extreme psychological disorder) Don't think that you have psychological disorder if you can't dream. Actually some people forget their dreams and they think that they are not gettng dreams. Its common.5. We Only Dream of What We Know.(Our dreams are frequently full of strangers who play out certain parts - did you know that your mind is not inventing those faces - they are real faces of real people that you have seen during your life but may not know or remember?)6. Not Everyone Dreams in Color.(A full 12% of sighted people dream exclusively in black and white. The remaining number dream in full color.)
  24. Eventhough most of the Nokia phones doesn't have inbuilt viewers for pdffiles, most of the them like Symbian Series 60 phones(e.g, Nokia 3230) have 3rd party applications like Adobe pdf reader for SymbianOS and Pdf+ etc...You can read pdf files on these mobiles if you install any of these 3rd partyapplications.
  25. Almost all people who have some knowledge with browsers hate IExplorer. Its a fact.Thousands of threads in different forums have the same opinion. IE is worst. And most of the people who hates IE are lovers of Firefox, One of the best browsersavailable today.Personally i love Opera. I am using opera for 5 years, and never think to change mybrowser. I use Firefox as a second choice. Opera is the fastest browser in my opionon.Now i am using Opera 9.52, the latest release. Opera is the only browser passed all thestandards tests like ACID test etc...No doubt IE is worst. The only advantage for IE is it is integrated with Windows. That is the only reason for its huge share in browsers market. Its sandards are worst. But mostwindows users doesn't know about this...and still using IE.But due to the reputation of MicroSoft, we can't say that IE will disappear. MicroSoft will difinitely do something to keep its market in internet browsers. Just let us wait.......
