Are you going to buy vista?

Been using Vista Ultimate from MSDN for the past month and I'm very happy with it.

 

I thought about partitioning my HD to put a linux distribution on it, but am too lazy just yet. If Vista becomes mandatory to keep up with MS, then I'll probably switch to linux. The problem I have is the complaints about slow speed, and I don't want to upgrade my computer largely for eye-candy. The sad part is that I have a free upgrade, but it's only for the most basic version. I'm using XP home now with with media center, so my "free" upgrade would end up being a downgrade or cost me a couple hundred bucks...

 

Nope, but it will be forced down people's throats.

 

I'm not going to buy it since I have an academic licence
But I'm not going to use it either

p.l.u.r.

 

I will wait for the third rollout. Heck I just starting using XP a year ago.

Always wait till most of the bugs are gone.

 

I need a new OS anyway so yea, il probably buy it.

 

Linux Rulez Vista seen the beta version not impresed still my old Xp for working is the best (tested and overtested )

Olso a litlle bit expensive maybe i will buy more ram

 

I plan on getting it when I get my new computer or laptop. It looks pretty cool.

 

I'm definitely not going to buy, will wait for my nex PC in a couple of years. Besides, what would I need Vista for ? Because they all boast about its so-called security ? Not enough for me, I can take care of my security

 

will buy it with my next Computer

 

Im happy with XP right now and I had took a long time to part with my win 98 so much so I still use the classic theme with XP, I will be getting a new laptop soon and probably go with vista to see how it is.

 

I've just bought a new PC so I'll be getting Vista as part of the free upgrade.

 

Vista has to many bugs I feel, nothink will install. But I am going to buy the final of it.

i am not going to buy it yet; may be with my next computer

 

That URL does not work BTW

I'm going to wait for it to be out for a while (So all the bugs are ironed out) then I may get a new PC with it on.

 

give it about a week you will be able to download it from the net i wonder if they did anything new to provent there software being pirated all over the net

 

I dout it, I bet they will be saying 'I knew we forgot something'. I hear you can download the old beta's free and legally.

 

That's one of the reasons why the release has such a delay.
Normally it should've been release around november I believe to everybody (or even earlier, can't remember).

This one is properly secured against hackers I believe (sadly).

 

I bet someone will find a way around there security, or atleast make it so your computer starts to suck.

 

i agree what can be made can be broken
