I bought a new PC at the end of last year, and I qualified for a free Vista upgrade. The Home Premium Upgrade arrived today. And I'm stuck wondering whether to install it or not. It didnt cost me anything (aside from the new computer).

Any Vista users have anything nice to say about it?

 

Get a Mac  

Sorry, couldn't resist... in case you didn't get the impression,

Hello, I'm a Mac

 

I always thought you were overpriced and under powered.

 

Vista is the devil!!!!!

 

I hate you. You have really screwed up the graphic design industry.

 

Oh, and it's a Saturday, so there must be a new version of OS X out.

 

Screw Macs.

As far as Vista goes, I'd wait until there is a service pack available.

 

I agree with M3. I would wait until they MS comes out with at least one service pack. Probably won't happen for another year....maybe.

 

Sling the hate, I could careless  

 

That's just because your customer service is so terrible.

 

I wouldn't know, I can fix my own Mac

 

A Mac user trolling an entirely unrelated computer thread with cliched advertising slogans that nobody is interested in reading? Never saw that one coming.

 

Quick, someone get that trendy skinny kid from "Dodgeball" in here!

 

I resent that remark. : (

 

I have been using Vista for about 2 months now and I am surprised by the lack of problems.

 

Leave the lightside of Windows and come to the darkside of Linux, hahaha.

 

Go for it. Vista is awesome. I dont know why everyone bitches about, but I assume almost all the bitching is from people with PCs from 1995 and people who kiss Steve Jobs ass at every turn. Vista is great. Install it!  

And you can also be like Zero Prime and I and go for the often times awesome world of Linux. (dual boot your machine)  

 

Vista sucks cause EVERY little thing has to be approved... and from what I've heard any computer older than a year cannot handle Vista because of harddrive requirements and such.

 

You can switch that off.

I got it to run fine on a 3 year old P4.

 

Cool, Did not know that...the mums got vista on her laptop, played with for an hour before I got tired of approving everything.

And I was told my a computer grad student about the year or older...fuckin potheads lol.
