Operating Systems Awards

Dreyco · 23-September-06, 10:36 PM

I just had a random thought. You know how we have "Overclocking masta" and "extreme cooling" icons? I thought why not expand a little bit and create some of those of us with some 'extreme OS tweaking skillz' ? I mean I'm trying to get linux to work and it would be nice to know who the authorities are on that. Others are insane and registry tweaking in XP and Vista. Not that there are a ton of mac users but, I seem to know a bit about them (or where to find the info). We could even have a 64bit award for those pushing the frontier and have experience in 64bit computing.

I was thinking for icons:
Windows: the windows flag
Linux: Tux the penguin
Apple: the Apple icon
64bit: just '64'

I like that idea, I'm always trying out new OS's and it would be great to know who has the info i really need.

Yeah that sounds like a good idea, afterall, there must be plenty of people here who know certain operating systems like the back of their hand.
