vista is more advanced. i loved xp. and believe me. i was just mourning about getting about vista. when i got it and used it. i was like. WOAH this is a really great OS. Basic sucks fucking ass. but preimuim. it runs great!. try to check the compatability next time...dumbass
Also most time i see ppl with 3-4-12 gb ram in Vista and they still say its run really great and for sure XP Firewall suck horse dick. He is only 1 way when Vista its 2 ways. So if you say XP is more secure well hahaha. Also XP is faster yes and Vista use a lot RAM but when u got 2-3-4 and more gb ram i think u can have one of these Vista. And i still got it and i play a lot game and no lag at all. So if you think for you Vista is lagging. Buy a new cpu.
I wish some day a meteorite would crash on microsoft's factory or whatever they have.
