Windows Vista baby! Yeah! - Page 2

I find Vista bloated and really... over the top?

Atm, I use a vista skin on my XP pro, looks good and it's pretty like Vista minus the bloatedness. Regardless, I don't like it T_T... I'll stick to OSX.

I'm sticking with XP untill it gets to the point where I can't use new programs or games. When that time comes....well....god gave us torrents for a reason.
If it wasn't for my gaming addiction I would have switched to linux ages ago, in fact I'm thinking of installing it anyway and duel booting, no matter how good vista is it can't be as good as Debian can it?

I'll use Vista after it's stable release is out. I am still in the process of learning how to use Windows XP Home efficiently. But I am sticking to Fedora Core. I will install Ubuntu after I got my new laptop.

But still I am somehow interested in Windows Vista's Windows SuperFetch, Windows ReadyBoost & Windows ReadyDrive. Does it really make applications process faster?

If you want to play HD video from Blu-Ray and/or HD-DVD better plan on buying the 64 bit edition of Vista and the necessary hardware.

Don't you just love DRM and the movie studio backed race to the bottom.
