Windows 7 sounds great then, guess I'll order a new PC within the next month.
Thanks.

I like Vista, once you get it set the way you want its a dream OS



I switched to Linux because of Vista.

It isn't that bad to me. But I hear Windows 7 is unanimously better, so you should get that instead.

there is something worse than slow?

man it cannot run well on 1gb DDR2 667mhz machine with a core 2 duo 1.73ghz

open a browser , word, wlm and you find one of them under a white screen that u can do anything not responding

A. Yes, there is something worse than slow. It's called suck. Missing features suck. You can fix "slow." You can't fix suck.

B. Speaking of slow, your computer is a netbook, or a very slow laptop. You can fix it by buying a new one. Thus, your slow problem will be fixed. However, without a modern OS, your PC will always suck. It will be good for running apps and games from 4 years ago. However, it won't do well if you plan on using it for things besides MS Word and surfing the net.

In other words, with a good computer(400 dollars will do it), Vista isn't "slow" and truthfully, even when gaming, you wouldn't be able to tell a difference in speed.

However, your games would look worse without Vista, and possibly not run at all.

Look, I'm not here to defend Vista. Honestly, it is a little convoluted for most casual users. However, entheusiasts and builders shouldn't still be using XP. You lose a lot of stuff and get no percievable benefit.



I don't need your console war.
It feeds the rich while it buries the poor.
You're power hungry, spinnin' stories, and bein' graphics whores.
I don't need your console war.

NO NO, NO NO NO.

Don't get Vista. Its a mess. Wether it's as bad as people say comes down to luck tbh. Your better off going with XP or waiting for 7.



 

 

@Zen, thats why I want to upgrade. XP has been out for so long and I plan to have the PC for a while, I need to be up with the times!
