| Level: 49 Liberal Arts Major | Fact. >_> It's just so much more user friendly and quicker than XP's is. This is coming from a person who has used XP for about 5 years, and recently forced to use Vista. Been using Vista for about, 6 months now. Recently (Yesterday) I installed XP on a Virtual Machine. It's like a kick to the balls. Both OS' have their merits I will admit that. I'd take XP over Vista for gaming anyday. But, for general use, I'd go Vista because it's changes make it so much easier to use over XP. <-> Common sense these days is about as common as Gold being hidden inside your ass. - Me.

| Level: 49 Liberal Arts Major | I have Vista on my desktop and XP on my laptop and I see no worthwhile improvements in UI that make the hassles of Vista seem passable. ___ ~ Ogordemir ~ "The sciences have hitherto harmed us little; but some day the piecing together of dissociated knowledge will open up such terrifying vistas of reality that we shall either go mad from the revelation or flee from the light into the peace and safety of a new dark age." ~ H.P Lovecraft, The Call of Cthulhu Message last edited by Ogordemir99 on 10/28/2007 at 07:44:52 PM |

| Level: 30 Legend | I found Vista's UI ridiculous. They changed the name of shit for some random reason that made me hate it. Simple things like "Organize" is the new "File" and stupid stuff like that...I hate vista. I even hate how the networking UI looks...I hate it! |

I'm really hoping that this makes png images more open to the public (paying for graphics tools? wut? lol) and that the Internet starts using them more other then Wikipedia (vector > scalar). --- Now!

| Level: 37 Advanced | I'm upgrading my system enitrely within the coming week (just waiting for my video card in the mail, not sure if I ordered it before it was sold-out) and I figured I may as well go the Vista route. --- I always drink sake at the Cherry Blossom Festival!

| Level: 49 Liberal Arts Major | Do you play games? If so, then dual boot. Use XP for gaming; Vista for everything else. <-> Common sense these days is about as common as Gold being hidden inside your ass. - Me. Stupidity is more common than common sense -Me.

| Level: 49 Liberal Arts Major | Use Ubuntu Linux and you don't have to worry about Windows XP and its lack of good visual effects. Ubuntu 7.10 has better visual effects than Vista (just make sure you install GLX).
