  2. Sign the petition?!

    so karim, will we see Nokia act on the results or was the poll just posted for a bit of fun to gauge everyones view on this subject?

    i mentioned earlier that Series 60 version 3, feature release 1 has the ability to have the F/W updated by the user so will we see this option included in future handsets? even if only a small number of people wanted to do this by themselves, it would still
    save nokia time and money?

    Hi Rich!

    This poll isnt just a bit of fun, I was hoping to stimulate a bit of discussion on the subject. The results from the poll are interesting, it is not the landslide that many people who visit here were expecting. With on %59 of people actively seeking firmware
    updates this still leaves a large group of owners who would require some assistance on updating their firmware, with two days to go the results could change either way. And again, this only gauges the opinion of people who visit these discussion boards - there
    will be many many Nokia owners who have not read this post.

    But, this poll isnt the official Nokia standpoint of firmware installation. The poll and this thread are what you, the users think and feel.

    Carry on and make posts here to discuss this, and feel free to make a vote. The poll will close on Friday afternoon. I will collate the results and put them in this thread for further discussion.

    Cheers

    -

    Karim

    A poll of Windows OS users

    You don't seem to be reading what I write. This is a discussion thread rather than a question.

    I have never accidently set things to black on black, but I have seen others do it. I've also done it to my friends in the past as a prank. Usually someone who claims to know everything about their PC. I also learned how to get a useful theme back without
    being able to see the screen so I could fix it later.

    I don't know what you have against shareware. Back in the 90's it was generally pretty safe, the malware industry wasn't such an issue back then. These days I use well known shareware/open source software like GIMP, and commercial for those things I can't
    get a good free application for.

    I'm not asking for assistance here, not sure why you would think that. My original comment about black on black states that it's something that a fully skinnable interface would allow people to do, and that most would not be able to get back to where they
    were if they did so. I didn't say I have the problem. Similarly with my other comments. These are things I've seen people do over the years, not necessarily problems I've faced.

    You call me a MS appologist. I'm simply stating what I have experienced and seen others do over the last however many years. Up until 12 months ago I have never needed to re-install an OS. Windows has worked reliably for me over the years, so I state that.
    My last PC ran XP. It booted to the desktop in 25 seconds right up until I retired it after 5 years use. Again, that is my experience not a generic statement that everyone has the same experience.

    I can't really vote as starting with Windows 98 I've enjoyed using all of them and never having any real problems with any of them makes it difficult to name just one.

  5. Windows 7 has been the easiest to learn and the most trouble free OS I have used, Although with the arrival of Win 8 and the store there is always something new that can be added.

    I ticked Windows 7. Was never really taken by the whole Windows 8 craze. Keen to see what 9 will bring though...

    I voted 8. I'm wondering why 8.1 wasn't included in the roster. Huge fan of it.

    Didn't vote as my favorite 8.1 is missing.
     
  11. bigseb Win User
    I know this may seem a silly question to you guys but what's the difference between 8 and 8.1? Service pack?

    It is considered a new edition. It had major changes in the kernel. More choices of configuration as well.

    If I remember right, Longhorn was a pre-release code name for Vista.
