vista one year on and it still in retail beta stage.

i refuse to move to vista till they release sp1, and the sp1 build is cracked.

lol at the thought of paying for an os.

I still miss Windows 3.1 :) :) :)

By Good old days on 25.12.2007 - 00:12
we had to use windows 95 without having the opportunity of getting used to windows 3.1. i hate this attitude of microsoft. they release a new version of windows just before we get used to it. this goes on on on this way.

really it all comes down to what ur comfortable with. i like windows vista because i never had a problem with it since day one!

i like the look and feel of it vs xp even though xp runs slightly faster.

Hehe , what about a free car ?

By Nick on 27.12.2007 - 16:12

if you bought a car that didn't perform well and was prohibitively expensive in terms of resources and maintenance, would taking another for free not be twice as difficult to maintain?
when we buy computers with matched, "factory" installed software, we don't have any problems.
the computer will last for years. the software is involuntarily "upgraded" after a few years, and incompatibilities arise.
if one desires cutting edge capability for new "bling", a hardware upgrade is inevitable.
if that upgrade is a new box, it will come with newer software for which it was designed and there will usually be no glitches.
all of that said, if i bought a new system and had nothing but headaches with it, i wouldn't care whether the problem was software or hardware, you couldn't give me another one like it, because i would have too much irritation trying to keep two lemons running.
run your car (or computer) until it gives you too much trouble, or you have to replace it, meanwhile paying to what consumers are syaing, then make an educated guess. caveat emptor!
and for all you haters and snobs out there,on both sides of m$ bitching, piss off.

"comsumers are saying" - that should take care of the typo cheapshot- ridicule often comes in lieu of reason.
