F15pilotX 4 Posted December 5, 2006 Anyone have it? If so, how do you like it compared to XP? Share this post Link to post
TheBlackOut 7 Posted December 5, 2006 Only businesses "have it". We have RC2 but not the final lool. I liek it so far and I'm getting it no question. Share this post Link to post
Doctor Destiny 41 Posted December 5, 2006 **** Vista. The only way I'm getting Vista is if it comes preloaded on something I buy. Otherwise, XP for me. Share this post Link to post
Tree 0 Posted December 5, 2006 Work's got a copy of it. Compatibility's a bitch. I'm off to write an email to the IT head of the county stating reasons why the school system shouldn't upgrade, besides costing over $100,000 per school. Share this post Link to post
Sonic 296 Posted December 6, 2006 Haven't tried Vista, but I've read lots of sites and articles about it. Will I get it? Not in the near future. Pricing is a rip off :roll: I'm happy with Windows XP, it does everything I need it to do. Share this post Link to post
Luk3us 63 Posted December 6, 2006 I've only used it a little. Its kidna cool. But I probably won't buy it for a while. Share this post Link to post

The current games in development and the ones in the next year or two will still be made for Vista and XP. Share this post Link to post
comander starlin 6 Posted December 8, 2006 well Vista was going to be wicked but then they dropped a features, then a few more, an now all it is, is really a service pack for XP Share this post Link to post
Sonic 296 Posted December 8, 2006 That is true, most of the true new features like the new file system, WinFS, was ripped out so Vista will use the NTFS file system once again. In the end the average consumer will buy Vista on the day, take it home and install it on the computer, they will then be totally amazed by the fancy new interface and all of effects and thats where the fun ends for them. But they will happy because it simply looks new. The only Windows OS I updgraded to on the day it was released was Windows ME. Now that was a let down. Share this post Link to post
F15pilotX 4 Posted December 9, 2006 I guess I'll wait for a year or so until they fix everything then, if I get it at all.... I just got a .theme file for my pc, so I get the graphics without the hassle Share this post Link to post
Azrael 0 Posted December 22, 2006 I got my dad to preorder Vista for me and him for only one thing... HALO 2 ON PC! P.S. Am I just supporting Microsoft's monopolistic backside by doing what I'm doing? Share this post Link to post
TheBlackOut 7 Posted December 22, 2006 The only Windows OS I updgraded to on the day it was released was Windows ME. Now that was a let down. Hahahahahhahahaha. We got a new computer like 2 weeks before Xp came out and they pawned us on ME. It was the most crashiest and bitchiest EVER. EVER EVER EVER. RA wouldn't play for more than 5 mins! GRR! P.S. Am I just supporting Microsoft's monopolistic backside by doing what I'm doing? Yes, and grats to you from the forum's Microsoft/Corporate whore! Share this post Link to post
JahSpoR 0 Posted December 22, 2006 I think vista is kinda crap.. doesnt live up to what i thought it would be.. Share this post Link to post
F15pilotX 4 Posted December 23, 2006 I really wish they would've included that new file system, if for nothing else than to see how much better/worse it did that NTFS :? Share this post Link to post
Azrael 0 Posted December 23, 2006 I hate some things about Microsoft... But I love Halo and Mechwarrior, and never forget who publishes those games. Share this post Link to post
