VISTA sucks big time - DO YOU AGREE

You could be right

 

IT BURNS (the IT industry ESPECIALLY)...M$, be good otherwise we won't take out the $ (instead we could add $) {other random thoughts: lets make M$--->M$$$ because of vista's xxx$ pricing}

 

please, less coffee

 

...(I'm that much of an anti-M$ person)...

 

I understand now - where you were coming from...I'm not a M$ fan either

 

Vista is slow cause i need Latest hardware and if you have pentium 3 then this will happen, and if you have latest hardware then you feel on the Air

 

It's only at its beginning stage right now, so I would wait until they patch things up before I upgrade.

 

I totally agree with you. I think people get so used to what they are using and the change is a bit too much. Not to mention the bugs of the first release.

 

EVERYONE of my friends are saying

'I'm not getting it now until they patch it....'

...people need more penguins......lol

 

The verdict is still out for me on Vista. I don't know though...I have heard so many warnings not to buy it yet because of speed, compatibility and security issues, and these are coming from major companies and IT departments at Yale and Harvard. I never buy a new PC operating system upgrade for at least a year so they can work the bugs and security issues out. The funny thing is, with Mac operating system upgrades, they usually run FASTER than the previous system on the same machine. Microsoft would do well to learn from that example.

 

that's what I couldn't understand! why develop an OS that 50% of the people aren't going to be able to use b/c they are already behind the 8-ball for hardware.

MS....do less with more

 

Exactly! I won't be a beta tester unless they are paying me for it. I'll wait a year or so, until they have everything fixed. Then I will switch!

 

There are far too many security problems for me. That, and if you have a slow computer Vista will run equally as slow.

 

WELL, if you WERE a beta tester and SUBMITTED 1 BUG, you'd get vista ultimate FREE(if you used microsoft's beta portal, connect)

 

they were supposed to send me a free copy of the beta, thanks to a link posted by sumit, a long time ago and the jerks never did!!

 

Absolutely!!!

I hate windows Vista, damn Microsoft needs to patch that thing up fast!

 

Microsoft Hit By U.S. DOT (Department of Transportation) Ban On Windows Vista, Explorer 7, and Office 2007

Citing concerns over cost and compatibility, the top technology official at the federal Department of Transportation has placed a moratorium on all in-house computer upgrades to Microsoft's new Windows Vista operating system, as well as Internet Explorer 7 and Office 2007, according to a memo obtained Friday by InformationWeek.

In a memo to his staff, the DOT's CIO Daniel Mintz says he has placed "an indefinite moratorium" on the upgrades as "there appears to be no compelling technical or business case for upgrading to these new Microsoft software products. Furthermore, there appears to be specific reasons not to upgrade." ..... read more

even the US Gov admits MS sells crap.

 

I got a Free copy and must say I'm quite pleased with it.
It runs a lot faster than xp on my system and deals with network traffic much better

 

With Full Aero Effect, Vista needs 1.3 Gb Ram for just normal Operation. So Vista will give out a extra normal, only if you have 2GB Ram or above. Also a Graphic Support needed

 

Vista Runs like a dog, yes it's very pretty but needs loads of Ram same goes for Office 2007
