microsoft vista
 

what do you guys think? Is it worth buying or should i stick with xp for now?

unless you have XP-64, id stick with XP. Vista will be a hugh sucking sound on a 32-bit system. Plus, a lot of school networks dont support vista yet. Id give Vista another 4-6 months before Id try to upgrade. That way, everyone else, or at least most, will be able to support it.

Re: microsoft vista
 

I upgraded and I really like it. I wouldn't pay full retail price for it though. hake:


That sucking sound is you breathing through your anus.

Had a few of the release candidates and i liked it a lot, just a nice visual change and a lot of nice features. Have to say though i dont like the fact that on default startup theres around 45-50 processes running, on my curent xp at bootup ive got it down to 19.

this is something I d actually pay money for, but until I get it, xp + Vista theme, will do me just fine.

Scam.

angel:

Ill wait till I get it for free from Pitt in april

im still running win2k oOo:

we arent recommending it to our clients for a while.

we have 3 or 4 techs using it and have had many issues with VPN connectivity(it just wouldnt work with our sonicwalls)

its pretty smooth and nice looking and might be good for basic pc use, but business functionality is still shaky.

When i buy a whole new computer it will have vista. But the $300 some odd dollar price tag just for an OS is stupid.

Thats the big issue, nothing supports it as of yet. And as for the sucking sound, its not going to work as efficiently on a 32-bit system as it would a 64-bit. the smart thing to do would be to have a 64-bit system if you want to get the most use and best efficiency out of it

well i have an amd 64 bit system

then Vista would be ok, but be cautious if youre on a network that requires certain software for connectivity. The software might work, but the front end recognition software most likely wont. if youre on a network talk to the administrator about whether there setup supports vista.

You didn't say that originally; you said that Vista running on a 32-bit system would suck. It doesn't.

it was a poor choice of words. As an example, you could put standard parts in a high performance car and it will still work. But you wont get the performance you paid for. The good thing is they have the hardware now that will allow you to get the most out of it. But not all intermediate software supports it which is why I'd recommend against getting Vista for another few months, until other companies catch up. Especially if youre on a network, like a school or work network, a private one shouldnt be too bad

In the past 64 bit systems were dodgy as shit, mainly becuase of half assed driver support, far as i know now companies have to release 32 and 64 bit versions of drivers in the one package to get certified by ms.

So no more gay driver support which is a good thing, still dunno what version im gonna buy though. ed:

The Ultimate Extras haven't turned me on so far. Dreamscene's about the only half-decent thing, and I think I'd get bored of it after a while.
