More Presentations

I guess this is it. My partners and I finally presented our topic Disk Partitioning last Friday. I felt it went pretty smooth and great for having three people presenting at the same time.
I'm suprised at questions Dr. Tao asked since I really didn't expect that level of technical sophistication from the audience.
Anyways, if you are reading this Dr. Tao here are some links for more information relating to the questions you asked and after seeing the complete answers you'll understand why I couldn't get into all the technical aspects since it would take quite some time.
From my primary blog I already posted this information in the past:
How to install 145 operating systems on one PC
The main problem to overcome is Windows limitation of having to be installed on a primary partition. Other OS don't usually have this problem.
Here is the information I mentioned on the reliabilty of Macosx compared to Windows from a recent study:
ITIC 2009 Global Server Hardware & Server OS Reliability Survey Results
Which servers and hardware have the least amount of downtime i.e. crashes, etc per year?
Some interesting results for Macosx in there.
Let's just say I'm not suprised Microsoft came in last.

So that it's I guess. I must say all the presentations I saw today were a lot better than the previous weeks. People probably had more time to polish them I'm thinking. See you next sememster.
