What Guys think !
Last year a friend of mine upgraded from GirlFriend 6.0 to Wife 1.0 and
found that it's a memory hog leaving very little system resources
available for other applications. He is now noticing that Wife 1.0 is
also spawning Child Processes which are further consuming valuable
resources. No mention of this particular phenomena was included in the
product brochure or the documentation, though other users have informed
him that this is to be expected due to the nature of the application.
Not only that, Wife 1.0 installs itself such that it is always
launched at system initialization, where it can monitor all other
system activity. He's finding that some applications such as PokerNight
10.3 , BeerBash 2.5, and PubNight 7.0 are no longer able to run in the
system at all, crashing the system when selected (even though they
always worked fine before). During installation, Wife 1.0 provides no
option as to the installation of undesired Plug-Ins such as MotherInLaw
55.8 and BrotherInLaw Beta release. Also, system performance seems to
diminish with each passing day.
Some features he'd like to see in the upcoming wife 2.0.
1. a "Don't remind me again" button
2. a Minimize button
3. An install shield feature that allows Wife 2.0 be installed with
the option to uninstall at any time without the loss of cache and other
system resources
4. An option to run the network driver in
promiscuous mode which would allow the system's hardware probe feature
to be much more useful.
I myself decided to avoid the headaches
associated with Wife 1.0 by sticking with Girlfriend 7.0. Even here,
however, I found many problems. Apparently you cannot install
Girlfriend 7.0 on top of Girlfriend 6.0. You must uninstall Girlfriend
6.0 first. Other users say this is a long standing bug that I should
have known about. Apparently the versions of Girlfriend have conficts
over shared use of the I/O port. You think they would have fixed such a
stupid bug by now. To make matters worse, The uninstall program for
Girlfrien...... thats so sad how guys think !!!!!!!!!!!
what do you say ? do you think you are like that ? any guys dont think like that ?
