I refuse to use Vista.

I refuse to use Vista.

Its really not as bad as everyone says. Microsoft could of handled the launch MUCH better than they did. The only reason I have it is because it came on my new computer and I wasn't going to pay 125 bucks more to DOWNGRADE to XP.

[Darth Biscuit]

Probably not, but I have always liked XP and every other PC we have here has XP so I've seen no reason to change...

I don't recall Dell ever charging to go to XP from Vista? That's who we buy all our PC's for the office from.

Its changed recently, and its probably different for businesses as well.

I'm waiting patiently for Windows 7.

[Darth Biscuit]

We don't like to change... I'm gonna run XP until the computers talk to us like on Star Trek.

[PanthersAlv]

I run XP as well. mostly because a lot of games didn't work on it. Now tho, I have my Xbox again, so screw it. maybe I'll use it soon.

[Darth Biscuit]

Maybe we have been paying for he downgrade, but I swear I thought it was free...

doesn't really matter, would've done it anyway.

I just went and checked Dell's basic desktop system. In the first screen before you even customize it has plastered, "Customize yours now with XP for $120"

I've played around with the Release Candidate some. It is better, but it is hard to tell in a virtual PC environment which I'm forced to run it under.

From what I have heard there are several improvements to the kernel that will significantly improve performance. The new "ready boot" or whatever it is called seems to have improved the booting speed a good bit.

Wife gave me a new laptop for our anniversary....it came with Vista 64. I was disappointed to see that but I've not really had any trouble with it. I like the sidebar thingy...have current weather and pandora listed so I don't have to open a web browser to see the weather or listen to tunes.

Vista just takes up alot of memory, thats all. Next summer Windows will stop support for XP. I think when that time comes, I'll upgrade to Windows 7 though because I've heard alot of good things about it.
