    Hmm, all this vista talk is making me curious. Think I'll install it in a vm and check it out.

    I thought Vista was slow when I was running as HP had installed it (with all their extra junk) on my dv9000 laptop. When I formatted the HD and then re-installed Vista with the Microsoft disks everything sped up significantly.

    Now I'm perfectly happy with the speed.

    I'm running it without a virus scanner and am using the built-in firewall, and I've never had a problem.

    Vista stands for:

    Viruses
    Intruders
    Spyware
    Trojans
    Adware

    Xp beats Vista hands down.

    Ok, I installed Vista in a vm (virtual machine in vmware) and I think it kinda sucks. However, I should mention that I can't get the aero glass theme to work inside the vm because of video card requirements.

    I used it for a few hours to get a rough feel of it and it seems like they are trying to "dumb down" the Windows OS. By the default OS setting, anything you try to do it will pop up a dialog box and ask you, "Are you sure you want to do that you stupid idiot user?".

    I don't know, I think I can live without the aero glass theme for now. But I can understand why people would want to upgrade the look of the tired old XP gui. just my 2¢

    LOL nice one dude :D


    Just use a vista transformation pack on XP and you're set.. but I hate the vista gui though..


    nah install linux(preferably Ubuntu) on your other laptop.. try it, it's free and not a P.I.T.A. like vista.. ;)

    Best answer! Vista lovers must face it, XP is a lot faster, and is more compatible in terms of gaming, for those who like games <2005

    you can like xp how much you want but fact is that xp will soon be absolete just as 98.

    microsoft stoped selling xp.
    full support will stop next year, and extended support will stop maybe for 5 years.
    after next Microsoft OS it would be getting hard to find new games for xp and for a 2-3 years maybe drivers to.

    Some may think that Vista Rocks, but apparently Microsoft doesn't fully agree otherwise they wouldn't be supporting XP until 2014...
    2014 as stated...

    I've been running Vista Ultimate x64 on my personal laptop, Vista Business 32-bit on my home desktop, and XP on my work laptop.

    Personally, I enjoy Vista a lot more. Along with that, it's been as reliable, if not more reliable than my XP installation.

    People who bad mouth Vista right now are either one of two things....
    1. Ignorant.
    2. Haven't tried out Vista since SP1 and just talk out of their rears.
