Having just used a non-Windows disk defragmenter for the first time...
...allow me to say that Bill Gates ain't that much of a genius.

The defragmenter included in Windows is a frickin' joke. My system is already working 10 times better after using Diskeeper.

Diskeeper WROTE the defragmenter used in Windows! :D

(Now you see why they're hyping up the pay-for product, THEY do not want to go out of business.)

3. I'm on the 15-day evaluation version.
But it's good enough to make me consider forking out $20 for the pay version.

2. I haven't been able to defrag my hard drive for awhile with windows
think the other would work better? Mine just trys and trys and never seems to be able to make any of those little boxes on the detail screen.

4. If you have win98,
I have the defrag app for win2000. It works great in 98. Only 300k and does not have to be installed. Just sits on the desk top. PM me with a hot mail account and I'll send it to you in an attachment.
