NOOO!!!! It Can\'t Be!!!

I am constantly confused by how many problems people have with Windows in general, and Vista Specifically. I've yet to have a single Vista related issue with my computer, and I only started having issues with XP towards the end as my old computer got loaded down with stuff.

Maybe I just don't use it for as wide a variety of things as some others, so I don't really worry about conflicts or anything like that.

Here Here, I've had one problem with Vista and that was b/c of my own negligence - I loaded stuff up and never maintained the HD. I've also increased the RAM on my laptop to avoid anymore memory tangles since Vista consumes memory quickly - WHICH IS ONE HUGE DOWNSIDE ALTOGETHER.

ROLMAO... As funny as that is, you have to think about those hints like this at least they're entertaining.

After I switched to Ubuntu i have had no problems running anything. Ever.

For my windows apps that wont run in WINE. I've installed XP in a Virtual Machine and have not had any problems with that either.

Although, Vista IS the Anti-Christ! Well, Almost...


I guess it will become the next XP when Blackcomb comes out.
And people will be saying STAY WITH VISTA!!

All the people on our team who have complained about Vista have used it on either a Dell or a HP. I have a Sony running Vista Business and have had no problems. Someone was screwing around on my laptop, not funny at all, had to reboot it because they "accidentally" deleted a bunch of important files and drivers for wireless card.

I want an Apple. Don't have that kind of money, so XP it is. Soon as my new primary machine is finished, the laptop will be converted into an Ubuntu machine, if I can ever get it working. Stupid LiveCD won't recognize my laptop screen, even with the special parameters.
