    Maybe my non-technical grandfather put it best when he said "there's nothing new or special here in Vista"

    New OS always comes with some compatibility and security issues. You may not have tried to install much devices/softwares but people who do that, run into troubles. It is always better to wait for an OS to mature rather than jumping in.

    I just got round to putting vista on and I've been having a lot of problems. It runs faster than XP for me (probably because I was only using 32 bit XP and I'm using 64bit Vista) but I've had to turn off the UAC for a lot of games and software to run.

    Vista has a lot of things going for it, but it also has a lot of problems too.

    Personally, I do not run Vista. But if we all remember back to when XP was introduced, a lot of people complained about it. Why.. because it was new. People just seem to not like change.

    I remember back when Windows 95 was released. I didn't like it, because it did things a different way (ie. change).

    Give Vista some time. Even though it seems slow... technology will change.. we will get faster processors and Vista will run like XP does now.

    That's my $.02.

    What do mean by final version? Vista isn't a beta right now. It's officially released.

    I'm really happy with XP, Vista is just too buggy right now and too slow. All my friends say it is crap.

    You'll get a lot of con-vista opinions here because everyone here is the web savvy type and need the computer for performance. The general market, however, the people who use computers at home to surf the web, will like the speed and will appreciate the eye candy.

    Using vista on my new laptop since last 10 days. I think vista needs minimum 1 GB of RAM for better result. Currently my laptop has 512 MB of RAM and its preety much slower compare to XP whichone on my desktop pc with same 512 MB of RAM.

    I have 1 GB of RAM and it is slow. About the same as performance on my other PC with XP and 256MB of RAM. And in order to get this performance I had to turn off most of the features of Vista that make it look nice, so I don;t even get those benefits.

    Vista could be good, if the performance were good and you didn't need to be NASA to afford a PC that ran it well.
