    I'm comfortable with Vista. not the best yet but XP followed the same cycle from bad to best. Maybe time will tell.

    I like it but have had a few errors and random blue screens. Not sure if thats a vista problem or a PC problem though.

    its what xp should have been in the first place - windows O/S are like mainstream computer manufacturers. You buy an overpowered PC running a light o/s - then MS brings out any system hungry O/S that requires you to upgrade or buy another PC and so on - why dont they just give a light version ( and i dont mean home basic ) and just let you download the modules you require? its would save time and money for the consumer ( although the retail and manufacturers would lose out )

    I tried Vista for an extended period of time. In all honesty I found myself back on XP within a short period of time. I don't enjoy my resource been stolen!

    I use Vista for 16 months. I had problems with software and drivers compatibiliy and put 2 gb of ram in my machine. Beside that i am satisfied. Its much more stable then XP. I had maybe 5-6 unknown restarts or strange shutdowns until now. Also i changed my mohterboard procesor and two times graphic card without reinstallation.

    Vista sucks a lot. I like OSs that work. I choose them for reliability and compatibility and not for the looks.

    Simply inefficient and a resource hog. In other words, it simply sucks.

    I think it's great!

    I really enjoy how a lot of the games and software I own aren't compatible with it and how it forces me to buy new versions!

    Or how it takes almost all my RAM before I even open one application!

    Awesome!:mad:

    Took me a bit to figure out what you were talking. I am running XP and had forgotten what a blue screen is but then I don't use any other MS junk software. Especially that non compliant piece of browser junk gates provides.

    Im not sure, maybe vista sucks for people with lower end computers.

    But i run the new Dell XPS 1730 laptop with quad core / 4 gigs ram/ dual gtx 8800 (Most expensive laptop i could find lol ) , i had XP on it for awhile then decided to try out vista, to be honest... I dont mind vista, i like the sexy look and feel of it. And in games i dont notice very much , if any degrading of my FPS.

    Direct x 10 is a bonus aswell, i did notice a difference in crysis regarding quality.

    And i found vista startup was alot quicker then XP, i crash less with vista, and never had any blue error screens, programs open faster, programs crash/freeze less now , vista seems to be better on handling multiple things aswell.

    I like it, and I agree - you need a high end computer though.

    you definitely need a high end computer to use Vista... it is quite the resource hog, but a solid product nonetheless.
