        I'm seriously considering dropping back to Vista on my new machine here. There are just too many issues to deal with.

        The one thing I'm worried about is converting all of my Documents and files back to xp, along with office 2007 etc.

        I do things

          Oh okey... I was thinking of installing OSX on my HP nx9420. But don't think you can buy OSX for normal PC's?

              I have a dualcore and 2 quadcore systems for my 3d animation business. Everything runs smoothly enough with xp 32 and xp64, I'm scared to rock the boat.

              What I've been hearing confirms that I should stick with xp.

                  I've told many times - Vista sux. XP has everything you need. Why spend money on a candy-looking shit?

                            vista 64 bit sucks. Vista 32bit runs great for me. XP is fine too, but it also needs a lot of tweaks. win2k was my fave...

                              I love this debate. Whenever MS launches a new OS people are always blah blah blah this sucks that sucks I'm staying with MS Old Windows. Good times. I don't have vista so I'm just enjoying the entertainment of this conversation.

                                I think (and Im stating the obvious to a point) but...
                                If you buy a new PC / Notebook and it comes with Vista, then that's great...
                                IN that case Vista will be fast enough, compatible and with a bit of practise... second nature...
                                It can be a robust OS, in those situations...

                                However if your PC is running XP and your thinking to upgrade 'for the fun of it'
                                DONT!
                                That is where the problems lie...

                                    +1, you can still find Vista cheerleaders who are basically Microsoft ass lovers or MS Vista domain owners, no objective individual could say that Vista is better than XP. A majority of Visa users seems to be downgrading to XP within days or weeks

                                    This Vista Beta release was a complete flop, but MS is still racking billions

                                    This MS company sickens me, the government should break them, i'm sure there is conspiracy to commit fraud. Their product is total crap, is overpriced because its a monopoly, and will cost its users TENS, HUNDREDS OF BILLIONS OF DOLLARS in disk craches, computer upgrades, hours lost....etc etc.

                                              I sent two laptops back with Vista (the first one I thought it was the computer's problem until I had the same problems with #2 from a different company). Got a new Dell with XP and not a single problem.

                                              I use a LOT of old software though - I don't do change well.

                                                    I agree 100%. I love Windows2000/Fedora on my desktop and XP/Fedora on my laptop.

                                                      Vista 64bit has the inherent problem of software and driver support.. being 64bit.

                                                      Give it some time.. it's just a matter of apps migrating from 32 to 64bit code.

                                                      Vista 32bit is more stable...and should give people the general stability of XP. I havent had a problem with it on my laptop at all.

                                                          so many bugs it isn't funny

                                                          if you are a windows power user DO NOT install vista.....meaning if you work your machines so hard they smoke sometimes, don't do it!

                                                          after that fiasco I might just run xp forever
                                                          if you know microsoft you never buy anything from them until at least service pack one comes out

                                                            I never installed vista,always stayed on xp.Os which need graphic card with 128 minimal ram cannot be good.

                                                              The service packs won't make Vista faster and less resources-greedy. The main problem is DRM protecting system which won't be removed, so Vista will stay slower and more resource-intensive than XP in any case!

                                                                      Vista or XP ( 64 bit version )

                                                                      I was just wondering... Just how many of you are running 64 bit systems ???

                                                                      The reason I ask is that if you play 3D games on your 32 bit system then you most likely would like to keep XP ... However as soon as you go 64 bit you are forced to run windows XP 64 bit version on your system as to take advantage of the hardware... now you could always use a 32 bit version of windows, however there are issues...

                                                                      Now the Windows XP 64 bit version is not really XP but a different version of windows server 2003 ... and if you want to play your 3D games you will have many problems, not to say you will not be able to play a few of your games...

                                                                      Yes I agree Vista is a bit of a let down, however if you can get the proper drivers for your system you will find that Vista will run a lot of 3D games... Also it is very stable... ( Never thought I would ever say that !!! )

                                                                      So since I keep on hearing in this thread how most dislike Vista and are happy with XP then it comes across to me that most of you are running either a 32 bit systems or 64 bit systems with a 32 bit version of windows... is this fair to say ???

                                                                      Later,

It was nothing Windows related, but after about 30 mins. I was ready to smash it with a sledge hammer. It completely cured me of any desire to "upgrade".

                                                                                The reason I ask is that if you play 3D games on your 32 bit system then you most likely would like to keep XP ... However as soon as you go 64 bit you are forced to run windows XP 64 bit version on your system as to take advantage of the hardware... now you could always use a 32 bit version of windows, however there are issues...

                                                                                Now the Windows XP 64 bit version is not really XP but a different version of windows server 2003 ... and if you want to play your 3D games you will have many problems, not to say you will not be able to play a few of your games...

                                                                                Yes I agree Vista is a bit of a let down, however if you can get the proper drivers for your system you will find that Vista will run a lot of 3D games... Also it is very stable... ( Never thought I would ever say that !!! )

                                                                                So since I keep on hearing in this thread how most dislike Vista and are happy with XP then it comes across to me that most of you are running either a 32 bit systems or 64 bit systems with a 32 bit version of windows... is this fair to say ???

                                                                                Later,

                                                                                hehe...in all seriousness, I am way too busy either working or hanging with friends to play games

                                                                                            If you jace were any good, you would be running Linux/Unix as a server, but since you like to just open your mouth, just for the sake of talking, just to hear yourself talk... I'm guessing every tech person you spoken to told you to go fuck yourself... now that is just a guess... GFY ...^^

                                                                                            Windows 32 bit on a 64 bit system is a real crime... I'm guessing jace is too cheap as to buy a 64 bit copy of Windows XP Pro...

                                                                                            For a rank noob I would suggest Ubuntu linux... It should only take you a few months to a year to get the basics down... I suggest such because its free... since you seem to be cheap...

The alternative software like Gimp etc just sux for many reasons.
