don't get vista! its the biggest pile of shit i have ever had the displeasure of using. i hate Hate HATE it. cant get xp anymore so i'm going Linux. Fuck you Microsoft for ripping me off.
Tried to buy it but couldn't find it anymore. tried all the big electrical retailers but they all told me they don't stock it anymore. I'm totally over it now.. i bought a mac.
You can sometimes still get XP OEM from small dealers, who still have it in stock. BUT the problem with a lot of new Vista machines, especially laptops, is that it's impossible to get XP drivers for all of the hardware.
A particular situation I've run across recently with an Acer 6920g laptop. There just is no XP drivers for the Cinedash multimedia control system on this laptop.
I've used Macs and Vista and they're both great systems. And can people shut up about who copied who! No one copied anyone. Can't you see that? Maybe you haven't used both systems because they aren't the same. Its pretty obvious.
This was around in Mac OS X 10.4 through to today. Mac released it first, announced it first and licensed it first. Mac has exposé, Windows has their crappy flip 3D which wouldn't help me at all. Mac has Dashboard and Widgets, Windows has Windows sidebar (What kind of name?) (claiming them to be completely new applications) and gadgets.
I have tried mac, and dosen't have anything negative to say about it, but I use XP X64 and Ubuntu 7.04 at the moment since I does not have money for a mac :P
Well Mac OS is about 5 years ahead of them and I DO use both so I know what I'm talking about. Most people who post negative things about Mac have never even used one.
I didn't know Vista created anything. I think your full of it. Even if what you say is true LOL then why did Mac OS X have it first. Oh because it takes Microsoft about 5-6 YEARS to realease a new OS becuase it is so hard for them to actually make what they promise and then they have to cut a bunch of prmised features out because they can't make them work. LOL LOL
True, it does take them a while to make a new OS! But you Mac OS X people have to pay to upgrade yours every year :p Also, taking ages only means that they're working hard on the product :p

The best version of Windows EVER was XP. My laptop broke but it was impossible to get a new one with XP on it so I was forced to use Vista.
Problems with Vista? Slower boot-up time, useless Disk Defragmenter, too many security messages, much easier to crash than XP.
Vista is just Windows ME all over again. (Yes I have used ME as well)
The only good thing I would say about Vista is the excellent Bubbles screensaver. And thats it.
