I suppose the following is a spin off from the post sazar just made comparing the vista release to the xp release;
here's the interesting observation;
you either love vista or hate it
I suppose those of us who've had vista issues with speed, usability, stability hate it
those of you who have had no or few issues love it
I remember coming off of windows 2000, I told everyone who had 2000 to just wait for a while, there wasn't a good reason to switch to xp yet and there would be bugs to work out
I told everyone who had 98 that they should switch as soon as possible because they were getting a professional operating system and and entry price when they got xp
so my first box has a dual core 64 bit amd processor, two gigs of memory and up till a week or so ago, has been nothing but trouble
that trouble seems to have been sorted and I think I prefer vista to xp on this machine though it is quite a bit sluggish, especially compared to an xp box that would have had the same processor and memory
my second box has dual core but 3 gigs of memory and this is an incredible machine, blazing fast, no stability issues and probably faster then xp would be given the same hardware
so that's my observation, most people either love it or hate it but those that hate it should just give it time, the os will grow on you
I guess that's what sazar was pointing out on his thread, that once vista gets the kinks out it's going to be an excellent os
me, while I think I prefer vista now, I still think it's a waste of money unless you are gonna use the 64 bit os and install more then 4 gigs of memory
so, this thread is what?
me being bored and wanting to type, that's what
