Girlfriend 6.0 vs. Wife 1.0
A comparision of “software” title Girlfriend and Wife:
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.
Can you guess where this is going?
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.
Dare I continue? I think it might be safer for readers to check out the rest of the comparison on their own time.
