ZFS beta now on Mac OS X Leopard

Yeah, Microsoft hasn't done ANY work with file systems...: And people complain about Vista compatibility. You know very well that a new file system, no matter what is going to break legacy applications, and why Microsoft has no choice other to be VERY careful with new file system technology.

Heck, guys like you say that they are destryoing data when in fact they merely disabled some funtionality, which when they learned it was causing problems for more customers than they expected, made it easier for users to restore the functionality.

Competition is good, but when you're talking about one the most critical aspects of an OS, the file system, you've got to be HYPER cautious.; Posted by: Heatlesssun1 Posted on: 01/09/08 You are currently: a Guest | Members login | Terms of Use
