I bought myself a new toshiba laptop a while ago and it came with vista and I hadn't heard anything good or bad about it yet so I thought I would try it and when I brought it home I turned it on and after I set it up I went to update and I got a blue screen so I called Microsoft and bitched them out for having such a shit product and that from now on I'm using ubuntu and I have been using ubuntu now for 2 years and not 1 problem. If I had the money I would buy a Mac but I don't so ubuntu it is
You know what, screw this video, I say that Vista is great and if you complain about if having so many bugs and stuff then think about this, nobody is perfect, nothing is perfect, not even every OS and computer is perfect.
16:52 Shut the fuck up Chris! I agree about what he was saying that with the mac you can't change the hardware inside it so I say that Windows is better, and I'm not saying that Mac sucks because personaly I do like OSX a lot.
I have a question. Why does everyone hate Internet Explorer? I mean, theres nothing bad about it, its a internet browser and it works just fine. So, why does everyone bitch about Internet Explorer a lot?
Also if Microsoft thought that win 7 would stem the flow of switchers they were wrong I have only ever used win 95, XP and 7 I have never touched, heared or smelled vista but I am still switching to a mac pro next month and taking windows 7 with me only for Blu-ray ripping if apple would support that win 7 would be no use to me just think Microsoft if apple supports Blu-ray you will be in real serious trouble.
I run Vista on my desktop and I haven't had a single problem. I really think (based on what I've heard from others and my own experience) that Vista is all about what kind of hardware you have. If you have a 2 GHZ processor and 2 GB of RAM you should be just fine.
Although I will admit it's a hardware hog and I'm very tempted to upgrade to 7 just to see what the hype is about.
my father, who is from the non-computer generation, decided over a year ago : "I'm getting a laptop PC and learning how to use it !". It was a small laptop from Asus, with Vista on it - probably the worst way for a computer complete novice to start ! a year later (after having not used it that much) : "I'm getting a Mac !" And he learned so much more in a few weeks under OS X than in a year with Vista...!
I've gone to windows 7 and i'm very happy about windows 7 on so many level and vista did not give to many problems but my grandparent computer you could see a big performance improvement going from rtm to sp1 on a acer aspire t690.
i'm running windows 7 rtm 90 day trial and i'm going to be buying windows 7 i've had more with vista then windows 7. never use nvidia graphic card on vista had a few bsod and i was so excited hearing sp1 was rtm but pissed off not release for the public
Vista can suck. Or be a great operating system. It depends on what your gonna use it for. If you want to fill it up with trenormas programs. It may not work for you. On the other hand it could be good. The base problem is.. That vista is not "strong enough". It's just that mac did that part better. And now there celling good!
Chris, i respect alot of your views and agree with alot of them, you have your issues with vista. they are clearly very thought through and well presented arguments. but the kat character in your video came across to me as alot of the vista hater people who just jump on the band wagon, have no genuine arguments and just latch on to others opinions and bash on windows vista with no real reason of there own. im probably wrong about her but alot are like that, and oh retards, disable the UAC
sounds like you don't know anything about Kat. She actually works for Microsoft. Her opinions on Microsoft comes from her experience as an employee and a lifetime user of Microsoft OS.
well I see the other side. I upgraded my PC from XP and I was ready for it hoping that it would magicaly work and it was easy and problemless. in 2 hours I was running Vista with a head that was not hurt. But now I am looking at windows 7=)
i got my imac in january and i love it however i really only use it for skype atm lol, im using ubuntu on a laptop however i keep switching from vista to 7 and ubuntu on tht laptop cus its fun lol
If you start reading thins you CANT stop .Once ther was a little girl named Cecilia.She was a little 7 year old who got strangled and raped by a man =.If you dont post this to 15 other videos you will see CCecilia standing at the end of your bed with a knife and she will kill you
You have to do this by midnight or you will be dead
you still dont know? basically when this video was made b4 sp 1 and 2 it had many compatiblity issues and ppl hated vista however sum of the imcombatibilities
@chunksloth The problem is that you're not a power user and don't tweak (I assume). When you try to do that stuff, it pops up ALL. THE. TIME. I don't think people just like to "bitch". You're too thickheaded. Also note that this video was posted in *2007* and you posted your comment in 2009. (Which is when SP2 was out and fixed most of the problems!)
@chunksloth UAC pops up for JAVA's update manager during startup. It's a notification on the system tray. Fine WHEN installing Java, but not for TELLING ME "Hey, there's an update for Java."
As a Windows user, Chris is definitely not a Apple fanboy. Vista has some problems. I've hit less of it's snags than other people, but it has some REAL problems. Microsoft doesn't need to want to listen. Windows 7 has many of the same issues.
This depends Yes it does take a while doing the wizards (wizardifying) and thats fine but it has been fixed with weekly updates (you can change) that you download (automaticly) and for the pop ups that happen you cna do a super administrator account and get rid of the pop-ups.
Also, you must understand the times we're living in: a fast-paced material age - if people want a new computer, they can go to Circuit City and buy one for less than $500, where as Apple computers tend to cost a bit more.
Point being: as long as people keep acting irresponsibly with their finances (taking out loans they can't afford to pay off for that new TV), Windows will always have the upper hand as people will always turn to the cheapest product rather than the high quality product.
I may be coming out of left field, but I did watch the entire video. I've been considering switching to OS X and buying a Mac Pro (I've used OS X before; I can't say I LOVED it, but it's something I'd get used to) - however, I am still keeping my Vista machine. I've been using this for basic to medium tasks - and nothing to crazy. I've had several issues with Vista, but nothing to cause the huge head ache - but enough to pose the question "Should I stop trying now?"
Haha I use Windows Vista and Mac... Yes it reminds me more of a Mac then XP definitely... No way in hell is it as easy as a Mac! I would rather have XP but Vista is easier for my Dual boot system
But it is more like a mac then XP definitely but not anywhere near as nice as a Mac (and no I am not just a Mac fanboy... I love windows)
I, like many people have not had the problems that Chris has. My search works just fine and there is quite a bit of support for the 64 bit version. I haven't had a problem with drivers, etc. I have used OSX as well, but I'm not switching, as there is no need for it.
vista wont allow me to go to xp with the version of the computer i am using. because of the acer hardware back up i can't use a different version of microsoft or any outher of install i did get sabayon to work as a 2nd boot for a while. i am using a virtuale cd of sabayon now thanks to you chris and it's great.
about those wireless issues theyr talkin bout, there must be somthing wrong with the network. 2-6 minutes? im conected with vista faster than my mom's macbook is! ud think it would connect with the mac aster cause its a freakin airport! personally, i love vista BECAUSE I PUT IN THE TIME TO LEARN HOW TO USE IT! just take the time and it works great.
LOL well i sat through ur WHOLE video now my but sore but w/e. I bought a new computer with Amd processer x64, 3gb ram, 200gb hard drive and the only thing that sucks on it is the OS. I had it crash, freeze,lagg, and alot more. Vista doesnt suck.. just has so much negitives. I think Microsoft Launched Vista only because of one reason, MAC WAS COMMING OUT WITH OSX 10 or w/e. so microsoft lauched it so all those microsoft fans dont switch to MAC leading to microsoft losing customers
it's funnier than fuck all the idiots that said "fuck vista it sucks, i'll wait for windows 7". then find out windows 7 is based on the vista kernal. lmao
well, Vista is based on the old Windows 3.11 kernel. They just "improved" it. If you don't believe me, check Windows Vista Font installation box... it's the one that we've seen in 3.11 :)
the weird thing is that (at least in most of my experience) is that windows users are hating Vista and jumping to other operating systems, but a lot of Mac and Linux users are making claims (true or not is questionable) that they like Vista. WHAT THE HELL??????????
I have respect for what you have to say here, seeing there are alot of people having problems with Vista. The interesting thing about this whole thing to me is that I have 5 Pcs 2 of which run Vista. The XP machines dont get used much anymore.
sat through, AND enjoyed it. i just got a macbook 2 weeks ago, and as a person who has sat through the issues of 98 2000 xp and the issue that is vista, i cant say how happy i am that i switched. thanks for the entertainment chris & co
Got Vista with new dell pc. First time in 10 years i've tried ubuntu (went back quick i might add),,,already looking at prices of macs,,,that says allot.
I have got a laptop with vista that my dad had to trade back in because no one we knew could fix it to stay connected to the net for more than 3 minutes. I had that computer for only 2 months. I take computer classes at school the teachers dont like vista. one teacher uses XP and when we tried to folow the steps for doing stuff like finding a doc it is kinda hard bcause it different.
One thing Chris is completely wrong about is that Vista won't be the death knell of Microsoft. Apple will gain some market share, but not enough to take out Microsoft. Besides, competition is the best thing to happen to any industry. Without Microsoft, where would Apple be and vice versa?
i got my pc with vista ultimate and chris is soooo right there is nothing 'ultimate' about it! i now have xp pro sp2 with a grub boot loader with ubuntu 7.04 and fedora core 7
And besides, MS DIDN'T want to release Vista, and you said it has been 5 years. They got development problems, so they had to restart everything under those 5 years.
People was angry that MS didn't do something, and now that they did, they are angry that they did release vista.
I'm not going to do like you, chaining from PC to Mac. I've lived with Windows in my whole life, and I'm not going to restart all my knowledge just because doesn't have the same methods, techniques etc.
I have "upgraded" or downgraded in reality, and i have been using it for a couple of months. I had 4 BSODS trying to install a data card! I want to try a MAC but can't afford it at current. I dislike the requirement of basically changing every component of your computer so that it meets vista requirements. Lets hope Windows 7 (Windows Vienna) will be better, or will it be to late for Microsoft?
joining a network vista 6 clicks xp 2 clicks mac 0 lol macs rock im using the same one as lockernome the 17" macbook pro 200gb hd 3gb ram hd glossy screen built in web cam and built in mic and a lighted key bord they thought of evey thing and it took microsoft 7 years to copy mac osx and they just killed it its the best thing about a mac the light up apple thats what made me buy it lol oh and using boot camp mac can run mac osx and xp or vista
I had xp and upgrdaded to vista and so far it never gave me no problem, and yes my pc was vista capable. When i installed vista, it made my web browsing 3x faster for some reason.. and as far as compatible issues the only prob i had was the printer other than that it all works fine now.
I dont own a mac but i can say this. Vista is nothing but pure garbage i got it for free for god sakes and i still dont appreciate it. It slowed my comp down about 25% and i hit about a problem a day
I am currently running on xp. i don't have any problems with it. I always here bad things about vista. so really, the only advantages I see to vista are halo 2 on the computer and gears of war. but I would rather buy an xbox 360 rather than screw up my computer. which at this time works perfectly fine.
IMHO Windows ME was better than VISTA. Iv been using XP for years I think XP is the best OS from Microsoft. So... when my XP stops working well not anytime soon this new XP its a year old Win XP mce05. When it stops working Im going to the MAC!
I hope Bill Gates is wetting himself in a corner. What a rip off!
well vista works great for me...but i guess loads of people are having problems...chris needs to calm down in this video hes a cool guy n stuff but come on man keep your knickers on
I like Vista and I guess my family is one of the few who doesn't have problems. We have three HP desktops running different hardware and they work the way they should with Vista. Other than that I haven't seen a BSOD since 98SE. I also use Ubuntu and I would agree that Compiz and Beryl kick Areo's ass! I don't have a Mac but if I could I would buy one but I can't afford it(I get my stuff for free, LOL). I am like a fanboy of all Operating systems, except freeBSD. :)
I have used Frankenstein Computers with Windows, troubleshooting the many many many problems over the many years. I still stuck in there as XP was such a big leap over Windows Me. Now after so many years of waiting, this is what we get? Vista? come on!!
So screw it, I'm now a very proud Mac user, especially because you buy it, but not only dose it just work, it dose what you want it to do. I'm never going back to Windows again! You are 100% right Chris.
the more i use vista the more it reminds me of windows ME but instead of blue screens it just locks up as is. even IE locks up... i had to dl Firefox to surf the net.
It is alright when you get it from a torrent! I'm glad not to get so much bloody spyware that I get with xp...vista is okay, but not worth the money. For nothing it is alright, for something erm...
I use Vista, Ubuntu, fedora and OS X. The new vista media features are great. Photo is just as good as my mac.
YOUR FULL OF CRAP THE SEARCH IN VISTA IS WAY BETTER THAN MY MACBOOK SEARCH FEATURE. Every single time the first thing that pops up is what I need. Full of bull Applelite.
ha, I sat through the entire vid, all 29 mins of it. Good discussion. To you're last question to viewers. I got WinVista Home Premium OEM copy, used it for a while, and like Kat mentioned. Vista did work for me, for a short time, then I got hit with:driver issues, DirectX10 VS DX9 issues in gaming, internet connection issues, program installation issues, Security issues, all like what was mentioned in the vid. Everything that Vista has a bad name for, eventually happened to me.
And yes Chris was it? I have since moved back to WinXp pro, and I have researched Ubuntu/linux OS, since I had to reformat back to WinXp, because I have 1 computer that's waiting for an OS now and an unused vista CD somewhere. But, about Macs. never touched one, other then OS7 I think, super old Mac ne ways, didn't like it. ONLY because I am so used to Winxp's Layout, and scared of game/program compatibility with Mac OS, that I haven't considered Mac OSs'.
In reply to Chris's question at the end...I have switched to Mac January with no intentions to ever return to Windows, no matter how good it gets. M$ has lost me as a customer because of Vista.
If they did not screw Vista up like they did, I would still use Mac (have been wanting to switch for a while), but I would not detest MS like I now do.
Forgot to mention my view, vista does suck but i think the fact it was released to the public in beta's over those few years of development, it ruined the fun of seeing a new OS :)
Im all for win and Mac, Im not bothered as long as It works and does what I need to do.
I'm going to be switching however as Ive looked at mac's products and WOW what can I say, they look great!
everything I need on there.
The thing I am pissed off about is Office 2007, I mean what a load of shit. I mean seriously. I tried for one day and I just went back to 2003, ALOT simpler!
My company uses Windows XP and it is not even in a far range of consideration of upgrading to Vista. So up to now I did not have my hands on Vista. Sorry can not answer your question.
Yes, I have used windows since Windows 95 - omg after nearly a year of Vista (I beta tested RC1) and i can safely say Vista is junk. I am switching i already have a macbook, just need a mini dvi to vga to hook it up to one of my 17" tft's and im there a MAC switcher, and when lepord comes out omg i hope never to see vista ever again!
wel i have Xo, had no major problems over the years. THe only reason people go for vista cos its new, thwe whole argument real. That means, it maybe be a new product, but does it work as you like it or more efficently, er, no
I think Microsoft should have released a non-bloated version of vista with all the bells and whistles that project Longhorn promised alongside XP. So we would continue to get service packs and support for XP while as a community help Microsoft develop vista with all the feature sets we want.. like WinFS among others. Then when we think vista is ready we'll make the switch.
beginning to hate vista after originally liking it. discovering that it's very buggy as is all microsoft products + compatibility problems are many. if it only 'worked' properly as it should i would luv it. it spends alot of time accessing the internet for various reasons that i'm not sure about. the new windows media player is nothing more than a store front to buy stuff from microsoft.
my card is only a year old and cost 300 bucks like said it works just fine in xp and ubuntu studio so I am going to use that. then when I get my mac It will br my recording computer. As a person who uses a computer for a certain task,
Of course Vista has serious driver issues... Hardware manufactures don't want your 3 or 2 year old hardware to work flawlessly on vista! They want you to buy their new stuff! Dhu...
My next Comp will be a mac because as Chris says they just work. MS blew it with vista. I don't like how propitiatory Macs are But that may be the price paid for something that works. The way vista deals with wireless networks is enough to switch
I have chosen to run Vista on my custom built pc, selected to have it installed on my Dell Inspiron E1505 laptop, and it has given me absolutely no problems. I love it's UI, it's ease of use, and the fact that almost anything I throw at it just works.
I'm a happy Vista user with absolutely no plans to switch OS's.
correction in XP there was little lag. Also I meant that I went back to XP but did decide load load ubuntu studio and works very well in facr there is no lag. Next investment, protools and MAC
OK here is my story. I decided to load Vista on my test machine. I am a trumpet/guitar player and I use cake walk sonar to record in Vista there was a little lag but not bad. in Vista, sound card does not work at all. $299 card thats a year old! I have since switched back to ubuntu studio no problems
i love videos that make me laugh because of the "ohh man, ive had that happen to me before" value. ironically, all the of the "vista problems" or "vista sucks" videos seem to fall in that category.
People who have had no problems with Vista like Vista. People who have had problems don't like it as much. It's not that complicated. I personally have crawled back to XP until I see how SP1 fares.
vista has potential, but doesnt offer enouph of a demand. we dont NEED vista yet, but we will eventually and hopefully they fix all the bugs. i have both xp and vista installed and i use xp for everything right now, even games. its not really vistas time yet.
I'm using Vista. I love it. I never really use a mac but my software is windows only. I really don't what to spend the money for a mac. I got a $500 dollar pc and it can do what i need it to do without any trouble. I must be one of the lucky people that Vista works good for. and im never going back to XP.
Actually you're not - Vista works fine for me...now.
I had problems with the TDR errors and was about to give up until I decided to think outside the box and troubleshoot my problems a little differently. Low and behold, Vista has been stable for me for about 3 weeks.
I am waiting, with much anticipation, for Leopard. I've gotten a new MacBook pro, put 4GB of ram in it and upgraded the HD to a 7200rpm version, all for a $129 OS. I Know I don't need this new hardware for Leopard to work, but I really want to provide the best mobile home for it :))
Yes. I am using XP now AFTER iv been using Vista since the first day it came out. And well although vista is pretty, its pretty bad. So yea, after all of this, i AM considering a switch to a mac. Probably do it during februrary, after Macworld though so Apple wont throw a new laptop at me. lol. MAC FTW!
i have honestly found vista to be fine to work with, except for one critical program wont work-which i bought the lappy with vista on it for -Solidworks- i bought the damn thing with the primary use of it being to run solidworks on it and it doesnt work on vista! but thats just waiting for them to update it really.
are you comparing windows vista to a toilet? hahahahaha

Vista runs way to many Service nearly twice as many as XP and it makes the difference.
You need to get down to about 30-36 services running at one time to get the actual speed of Vista
SP2 is twice as fast as SP1 with more security and can be cleaned.
I'm not against other OSes because I never used them and have alway's used Windows!

People just like to bitch.

@chunksloth The problem is that you're not a power user and don't tweak (I assume). When you try to do that stuff, it pops up ALL. THE. TIME. I don't think people just like to "bitch". You're too thickheaded. Also note that this video was posted in *2007* and you posted your comment in 2009. (Which is when SP2 was out and fixed most of the problems!)

@chunksloth UAC pops up for JAVA's update manager during startup. It's a notification on the system tray. Fine WHEN installing Java, but not for TELLING ME "Hey, there's an update for Java."

As a Windows user, Chris is definitely not a Apple fanboy. Vista has some problems. I've hit less of it's snags than other people, but it has some REAL problems. Microsoft doesn't need to want to listen. Windows 7 has many of the same issues.

This depends Yes it does take a while doing the wizards (wizardifying) and thats fine but it has been fixed with weekly updates (you can change) that you download (automaticly) and for the pop ups that happen you cna do a super administrator account and get rid of the pop-ups.

Also, you must understand the times we're living in: a fast-paced material age - if people want a new computer, they can go to Circuit City and buy one for less than $500, where as Apple computers tend to cost a bit more.
Point being: as long as people keep acting irresponsibly with their finances (taking out loans they can't afford to pay off for that new TV), Windows will always have the upper hand as people will always turn to the cheapest product rather than the high quality product.

Hello Chris,
I may be coming out of left field, but I did watch the entire video. I've been considering switching to OS X and buying a Mac Pro (I've used OS X before; I can't say I LOVED it, but it's something I'd get used to) - however, I am still keeping my Vista machine. I've been using this for basic to medium tasks - and nothing to crazy. I've had several issues with Vista, but nothing to cause the huge head ache - but enough to pose the question "Should I stop trying now?"
davidcrandall99 3 years ago
Haha I use Windows Vista and Mac... Yes it reminds me more of a Mac then XP definitely... No way in hell is it as easy as a Mac! I would rather have XP but Vista is easier for my Dual boot system
But it is more like a mac then XP definitely but not anywhere near as nice as a Mac (and no I am not just a Mac fanboy... I love windows)

I, like many people have not had the problems that Chris has. My search works just fine and there is quite a bit of support for the 64 bit version. I haven't had a problem with drivers, etc. I have used OSX as well, but I'm not switching, as there is no need for it.

I had it crash, freeze,lagg, and alot more. Vista doesnt suck.. just has so much negitives. I think Microsoft Launched Vista only because of one reason, MAC WAS COMMING OUT WITH OSX 10 or w/e. so microsoft lauched it so all those microsoft fans dont switch to MAC leading to microsoft losing customers

One thing Chris is completely wrong about is that Vista won't be the death knell of Microsoft. Apple will gain some market share, but not enough to take out Microsoft. Besides, competition is the best thing to happen to any industry. Without Microsoft, where would Apple be and vice versa?

And besides, MS DIDN'T want to release Vista, and you said it has been 5 years. They got development problems, so they had to restart everything under those 5 years.
People was angry that MS didn't do something, and now that they did, they are angry that they did release vista.
I'm not going to do like you, chaining from PC to Mac. I've lived with Windows in my whole life, and I'm not going to restart all my knowledge just because doesn't have the same methods, techniques etc.

ha, I sat through the entire vid, all 29 mins of it. Good discussion. To you're last question to viewers. I got WinVista Home Premium OEM copy, used it for a while, and like Kat mentioned. Vista did work for me, for a short time, then I got hit with:driver issues, DirectX10 VS DX9 issues in gaming, internet connection issues, program installation issues, Security issues, all like what was mentioned in the vid. Everything that Vista has a bad name for, eventually happened to me.

And yes Chris was it? I have since moved back to WinXp pro, and I have researched Ubuntu/linux OS, since I had to reformat back to WinXp, because I have 1 computer that's waiting for an OS now and an unused vista CD somewhere. But, about Macs. never touched one, other then OS7 I think, super old Mac ne ways, didn't like it. ONLY because I am so used to Winxp's Layout, and scared of game/program compatibility with Mac OS, that I haven't considered Mac OSs'.

I think Microsoft should have released a non-bloated version of vista with all the bells and whistles that project Longhorn promised alongside XP. So we would continue to get service packs and support for XP while as a community help Microsoft develop vista with all the feature sets we want.. like WinFS among others. Then when we think vista is ready we'll make the switch.

beginning to hate vista after originally liking it. discovering that it's very buggy as is all microsoft products + compatibility problems are many. if it only 'worked' properly as it should i would luv it. it spends alot of time accessing the internet for various reasons that i'm not sure about. the new windows media player is nothing more than a store front to buy stuff from microsoft.
