Windows 7: Resource Monitor Tool

http://go.tagjag.com/7 - It doesn't matter how new your computer is, you only have a limited amount of resources. You have to keep an eye on your CPU, your memory, and your disks - you need to know what's going on! The Resource Monitor Tool has been improved for Windows 7 to make this easier for you to do. http://chris.pirillo.com Distributed by Tubemogul.

I have a question... what are you people doing to your systems who say that vista sucks so hard. I bought a hp pavilion (600canadian) preloaded with vista, Its never crashed, and it isnt slow. How does vista suck?

@JIPALIG performance wish not much different. a little FYI the video never mentioned performance problems; he was talking about the feature set, and how vista is lacking. go to the vista wiki and learn how vista was rushed.

So, I just found the resource monitor now, and I'm not quite so tech savvy...is this thing able to monitor how much bandwidth each computer on my network is consuming? Or will I have to get another program that can give me a weekly/monthly report on who's consuming how much?

Who said anything about Mac?

And if Vista is so great, why do most gamers and businesses still run XP? It can't be because an upgrade to Vista cannot be called a real upgrade. I bought a computer that came with Vista. Used it for a few months, and had to replace it with Linux, something stable. I use Windows 7 now. Drivers actually work for it, and it uses way less memory. Plus half the games you mentioned take nothing to run, and I KNOW that they're not being ran to their fullest

I ran out of room explaining all the things i use my vista computer for... including cruising the internet... and i can do them all at the same time without noticing any slowodwn. But hey, Mac commercials are real funny and convincing that vista sucks so it must be the truth, cause why would money hungry hipsters lie to us through commercials.

Niice try buddy, but no, I use my computer for games such as : unreal tournament, world of warcraft, starcraft 1 and 2, pinball, snes emulator, Ages of empire just to name a few. I also have 2 different recording and editing programs on my computer (krystal and reaper) that i use to write record create and edit songs, and have actually released a couple demos right off of my computer and its freeware. I have likewise video recording and editing software.....

@JIPALIG

It's takes up way too much memory. Many drivers were incompatible. Slow.

And since it used so much memory, it was harder to run games, edit video, multitask, etc.

So I'm assuming all you did was browse the internet with it, so you wouldn't notice any of these HUGE problems.

you can see your readyboost too.

@JIPALIG Vista does not suck. Vista is a big improvement of XP, but it has so many fails that people actually say it sucks, which lets other people who never used it believe that too, making them not believe people like you.

You know, stupid people on the internet..
