Which is why more than half of it's new features are copied from Mac OS? http://youtube.com/watch?v=TaIUkwPybtM
True, that's why i have decked my XP out with complete Vista cosmetics, sounds etc. To the average person they would think i'm running Vista, however i have got stability as well as the bling!
Was that a serious post? I couldn't tell. This thread isn't about being able to afford Vista, it's about it not being worth the money. I don't have any financial difficulty purchasing Vista, I actually just purchased Mac OS 10.5 Leopard, but I would much rather buy XP.
I got the Vista theme, boot screen and screen savers from http://www.wincustomize.com/ I don't remember where i downloaded the Vista sounds, but it includes all the OS sounds like startup, shutdown etc. Also DeviantArt.com has a stack of Vista wallpapers etc.
Well there you have it. You can get vista-like sounds and look-a-likes on XP, then why guy Vista? I think peopel are being fooled by the advertisement companies and buying it because its the 'newer' version. well, its not worth it at all.
Yep exactly, also i forgot to mention along with all the other stuff i'm running the Vista Aero FireFox theme which is pretty good. https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/4988 As i said, my system is exactly like Vista but without the retarded "Are you really sure you want to do that" or the "Give me an hour to open that because i'm struggling for system resources" or the "Your a fool for buying that $300 camera because we don't have drivers" type annoyances.
Let us wait and watch. maybe in a couple of years time, Vista will be less buggy, more stable, and hopefully, support more than 4GB Ram Till that time, stick to XP.
I would rate the DOS first followed by vista and the ME as the worst, worse and bad OS released by MS
DOS for vista is probably the worst attempt for microsoft to atchieve anything. There are probably no good points to it at all, it just drops vista ratings even further.
I have Vista on my laptop, I am currently running iTunes, Mediaplayer, Mediacenter, PhotoShop and last Firefox. I have no problems with vista. Its sexy looking and works great.
