Off topic: Vista means ''Chicken'' in Latvian!On topic: I Dont know anything about Vista.
None.
I personally dont use Vista but i know someone who has it and I wouldnt take it for free, Thats how bad it is.
I am happy with Dual Boot XP/Linux
None.
Yeah, no need to rush it. I don't know if there are any problems with Vista, but just like when XP came out I want other people to use it first and when Microsoft updates it quite a bit, then I'll use it =)
None.
If you want the sexy style of Vista with the functions of XP, the just get the
Vista Transformation Pack. I have it and it works great.
Another page with more infoAttached is a screen shot of my
XP desktop.
Note: To get transparecy without WindowsBlinds (which you have to pay 20 bucks for), get TrueTransparecy and Transbar. (Google it)

Vista is really buggy at the moment, so I wouldn't consider getting it. Just a while back, they fixed a bug that caused your entire PC to freeze up when you
just paused Windows Media Player, even if it was a high performance model(though they patched it already). Just running Vista(Just the OS) takes 1GB of RAM, and this is with no programs open, just Bill Gates new(and shitty) OS that he made to combat Macs. Just because Macs look pretty and waste processing power doesn't mean Windows has to too. With this and Bill Gates
new policy on pirated/not genuine Windows, Vista is one
BIG pain in the ass. Heck, you should see what happens when you don't have a legal copy!
Bill Gates made it like this:
- Instead of saying: Get Genuine Vista(That didn't work with XP so now Gates is pissed off)
- It starts turning things off e.g. One day your internet stops working, a week or so later your anti-virus doesn't work, Windows turns off important functions until your computer crashes
- Now you have to reformat your Hard-drive, and get another Windows Serial Number(Or else it'll happen again)

You kids are becoming a pain I am gonna ge6t this out because I am tired of it.If you can't handle LEARNING how to deal with problems then you don't need a computer.Second on these error and crash things if you are gonna start this crap again I want proof because I now have a full ver of vista and nothing of any kind that has been spoke of has happened to mine.Also to you scorpoin you are only half way right about the pirated thing ill end that there though so I don't break a rule.

VISTA SUCKS DO NOT GET IT
IT's a Rip off of Machintos
It doesn't allow you to do any old stuff
It always requires you to run as administrator to get certain programs running properly EVEN THO YOU'RE THE ADMINISTRATOR ..
It just sucks
What the fuck is Machintos?
Yes it does.
All modern operating systems have a run as root requirement of most programs, Vista was late to the show.
None.
the reason why ur connection iz messed iz bc u probabally have dialup or a really bad connection or ur computer has a virus or u r getting kicked offline.
None.
does any1 find th@ their compact disk iz really loud?
None.
I'm having trouble running sc on vista home premium, when I run the installer it ends up freezing after I input my name/key.
None.
All problems will be fixed next month, when Vista SP1 comes out, so shut up and stop complaining
None.
Hopefully Direct Draw will be able to run programs not intended to use with Direct X 10
