haha i kind of disliked vista at first but im cool with it now. its so nice looking lol. there was some getting used to, and yeah some features are dumb and inconvenient compared to xp, but overall it's not bad.
from what i know its more problems with ppl who upgrade to leopard rather than problems with it if u bought a mac with it installed.
I can see that some new features might be enticing enough to get people to try, that is, on an old extra computer that they don't need for anything serious. An analogy would be if your computer was your car instead (which you relied on to take you on a two hour commute each day for your livelihood) would you risk changing the engine if there was nothing wrong with the first one? I don't think so. Microsoft is going to have a hard sell on this one, and they've been doing it, forcing dealers to shelve Win XP and reload their machines with Vista instead... A lot of OEMs are grumbling about it, saying that their customers should have the choice of either OS. I talked to one of the IT heads where I work, and asked him about our timeline for updating to Vista; he told me, about late 2015, right after he retires. Kind of says it all, LOL... Ralph
gna be quite a while then, til vista can be used without no problems....wel based on experiences, gotta accept i hav 2 go for vista instead now...
i still cant get my sidebar up!!!! it says need permission from adminstrator ..... who is me.. duno, ive tried everything but doesnt seem to work!
are you the owner of the computer? cos if you are, you can choose 2 delete users if you want to... windows sidebar works fine with me, hehe
yea, im the only one using this laptop!! lolllllll!! i always see ppl having the sidebar on their vista comp and im like, whyyyy am i being left out? :( lol!!1
Vista might look elegant, but too much troubles. Stick w/ XP ::XP:: Maybe few two or three more years later; change to Vista ( when it is stable).
I have 2 gb of ram, a quad core, yet this vista comp is still slower than my single core xp comp. very sad indeed
My sis got a new pc, its some duel core blah blah blah, now i hate vista, i bought it for my Pc (Athlon 2600) and ended up uninstalling it on the same day for XP.... BUT on my sisters fast pc Vista is the BEST...... i cant wait to upgrade my pc so i can use vista as its meant to be used. If your pc isnt really fast then vista sucks.
I tried Vista half a year ago and hated it. Reinstalled xp after a couple of days running vista. It kept crashing. But I think it was because of Bitcomet. So now I am trying it again and so far I haven't had any problems. It just takes some time getting use to the new stuff. I've only got 2 gigs of ram and it doesn't feel any slower than xp.
ahh my brother bought a computer when it just came out and now his computer is as slow and glitchy as MY 5 YR OLD LAPTOP!!!!!!! omg i sear to god id rather buy a mac then buy vista
