yeah I have a shitload of computers and I have used vista before. the laptop that my robotics team used ran vista and I used that thing a lot. its "security" features (blocking telnet by default) are lame as fuck, minesweeper has sound effects, there are too many distracting graphics things, the buttons in the top right of the windows are fucked up, the start menu is fucked, and there are a lot of other things I don't like about it.

either you're trolling me or you're just a huge idiot

i mean you listed off specs that would be considered low end 4 years ago

[Sinitron]

fuck you

[sQueef]

the only thing I don't like about vista is that they gayed up the layout or format of shit, like My Computer and the Control Panel

but I guess if you spent a little time you can probably customize shit like that. I do like the GUI vista has its reall nice lookin.

[MRat]

Everything about vista blows ass. XP is still more stable.

[ThePrototype]

XP is still more stable.

No shit.

XP has been out WAY longer, it's obviously going to be more stable. Give vista some time and it'll be just as good.

XP Launch build > Vista Launch build


You shouldn't release something that needs patches to work.

[billy]

vista has never crashed on me and xp has

[MRat]

vista has never crashed on me and xp has

I've had the reverse. I uninstalled Vista and went back to XP after like the 50th crash in the first week I had it.

[bcube]

I've had neither crash on me ever.

[FG_SPace]

i've had no crashes on vista, i put a shortcut to my computer on my desktop and i don't use it, i pretty much didn't bother with the security stuff and just got avast! and the only problems i've ever had are the endless "are you sure" pop ups that darken and freeze the screen behind it and i had to install like a million patches for my video card to get steam to work.

[Philip K Dick]

vista has never crashed on me and xp has

xp never once has crashed on me, and when i had vista it crashed almost every day

[mishkamash]

all is well that ends well, right?

[rtil]

bottom line: people typically don\\\'t like change, and vista is only meant for newer, clean machines

when people first started upgrading to XP they had a lot of issues. a lot of it has to do with 3rd party interference. if you had a machine full of windows-certified software only, i bet it would have worked fine. same goes for vista. and like with xp, you can turn off all the fancy shit and make it look like windows classic. although the default security features are annoying, but once you switch them off it\\\'s all over. wow that was hard !

i\\\'ve never run vista, but i\\\'ve heard either horror stories or pleasant ones. i think the horror stories might have to do with one of two things:
1. an old machine with lots of software on it upgrading (imagine that massive registry)
2. someone who doesn\\\'t know what the hell they\\\'re doing

if vista falls apart on a brand new machine, well, i dunno what to say. either the hardware or the user sucks.
