Re: Windows Vista
Charley
was reading on DSL reports and it seems that most p/c users that bought a new p/c with Vista after haveing nothing but problem they end up formateing it and installing Xp and dumping Vista but you can go to this site to properly load Vista http://break.com/index/how_to_properly_load_vista.html

Re: Windows Vista
I bought a new computer last week with Vista on it and I'd say stay away from it as well. It is just like any new software, it will have problems for awhile. It isn't that easy to navigate around and I can't find my files half the time. It also shuts down and reboots at will, that is frustrating when it happens in the middle of an email. It shuts down after a Microsoft update, which I don't even know is happening.
Thumbs down for now. Phil Woj.

Our Corporate IT wizards have absolutely nothing good to say about it.

Re: Windows Vista
I've read nothing but bad so far about Vista in my tech newsletters...even the Microsoft engineers weren't bragging about it. Sounds like another Windows 2000, to me...

Re: Windows Vista
I recently got a new laptop with Vista Home Premium loaded.... and I'll admit that as delivered, there's some annoying crap already set up... but like any new program, once you spend a little time getting familer with it, it's not so bad... I spent a few hours getting mine set up to my liking and got all the pain in the ass stuff turned off or disabled (all the over the top security crap like the permissions pop ups that Charley was bitching about... you can turn that off Charley
 ).. and now I really like it. But out of the box "as delivered" .. yeah it kinda blows getting used to at first... Guess I can call mine "day 2" now And it works better than my old XP one in my opinion.. I've had mine for about a month now and I like it
