Err.. Hi I don't hate it I just got it on my new PC I like the dashboard style desktop. I agree it looks better, the first week I had it, it took me a while to get used to it. It's also in Spanish but I'm getting there....I always wonder why everyone uses IE and not mozilla but thats another story hehe
Mac is a better operating system but....Vista got all thr CPU from mac basically coded it with windows copyrights.which also leads me to thr security system on windows another wanna b duplication of mac to form a pc with out ne viruses to be taken in to ur pc.Windows Vista is bing crackd by many hackers already soo another failure on windows.I got a suggestion windows MAKE SOMETHING NEW N OF UR OWN. Sincerely, NUGGZ
I dont understand Why people are saying Vista only Support 4 GB+ RAM i have 2GB RAM, and Vista only Eating up 30% Memory of it. so lets say Vista having only 400 MB to 500 MB. i still have 1.5 GB remaning... Even i saw some peopl using Vista with 512 MB, go check yourself if dont believe.
IMPOSSIBLE. It cannot run faster than XP - it has a FAR greater usage rate. Its not worth the money. Not only is Vista itself a ripoff, but you have to buy into ATLEAST 4Gigabytes of RAM for it to be any good if you use a computer like I do... Chuckun
Ok, clean... but tbh after i've been on a 'clean' computer for a week... its gonna be a lot different.. I've tried both, and XP beats Vista after having XP on my pc since it came out, and having Vista on for about a week.. =\ Chuckun
Maybe, it's different for everyone, but I installed Vista Ultimate in November 2006 (when it reached RTM status) and I've been using it daily ever since and it's running just as fast as it was as a clean install.
I love vista The interface is beautiful to look at while I copy files that take 10 times longer to move than XP.
I'm a Microsoft fan..but don't like Vista very much..it's too slow & it doesn't work sometimes. IE is horrible on Vista..sometimes it screws up my OS. It's a lot better with Firefox...that's all I use on Vista now. I'm on a brand new computer with AMD Athlon x2 64 2.8 Ghz & it feels like a 1.6Ghz machine.
What really sucks about Vista is Norton System Works 2007 isn't compatible with it but it's compatible with XP............................ I like XP tho
Norton sucks though... Im running it now, but only because i managed to pick up a free copy with a new computer... Get Kaspersky It's amazing. A friend recommended it, and it picked up multiple risky items (and i do know what im talking about with computer threats) completely undetected by Norton. Make the switch! Kaspersky is only £15...

I am not against vista , I am against Vista without service pack (maybe sp2) why should I be a paying test animal for MS
To clear some things up: Only 64bit-processors in combination with 64bit-OS's (like Vista 64-bit) can use more than 3.7 GB of RAM. So, not every version of Vista can use more than ~4GB or RAM, and there also other OS's wich are available in 64bit-version such as Windows XP and Ubuntu.
