I support Microsoft Windows (XP/2000/2003) because I know how to make them Go. I am gaining more experience every day with Linux (Ubuntu, Freespire, PCLinuxOS, Fedora Core, Knoppix, Mandrake, Xandros, and others). And I'm building my own highly tweaked and customized Windows XP unattended installation CD/DVDs by using the wonderful program called WINLITE by Dino Nuhagic . Thanks a lot, Nuhi!

Welcome to STRELECKI.COM and to my very own domain here on the World Wide Web! My goal here is to provide a highly usable and continuously-updated and expanded roster of links and resources for the active developer and power user. In short, I will make this site a place where all types of technical support can be found, including links for modern versions of Microsoft Windows.

PERFORMANCE FACTOID

512MB is the ABSOLUTE MINIMUM RAM you should use in ANY Pentium 4-class system running Windows XP. And these systems work better with 1-3 GB RAM. 7200 RPM hard drives with 16/32MB caches also contribute to MUCH better system performance, at boot time and during general operations. System response is smoother, there are FAR fewer crashes and lockups, and multitasking works better than ever! When in doubt, add more RAM and a faster hard drive and you'll see a system that runs like it did when it was new. That, along with a CLEAN INSTALL , will work WONDERS for your computer system - GUARANTEED! I've done it a thousand times, and it always works better than an upgrade, which carries forward old stuff you don't want or need. Send me an email if you want help, or download the text file linked in this paragraph.

IF YOU LIKE THE MIDI BACKGROUND MUSIC, please check out my creative friend AL BRASSELL over at his personal webpage. Al is of the most talented multimedia product developers and guitar-playing musicians on the planet. He made my MARK3.MID song almost instantly one day, and we've had a LOT of good feedback here about it. Thanks a million, Al!
