I ran it for a little bit, don't really know what to tell you though, I only ran it for a few days. Basically to put it in an analogy its to windows XP like XP was to 2000.
Although they are trying to implement a new file system, which if I remember right is supposed to eventually phase out drive letters.... if you really want I can try and dig up where I read that. But as of now its still using FAT32 and NTFS like XP is. |
