Vista Pisses me off
 

All those fucking alerts and checking if you want to do something you just double clicked on!! Argh!

Wish it looked crap. Then i'd still have xp...!

Thinking of getting a mac. But think i need to replace a monitor, first ... =)

I feel for you

Get back to xp

There's a reason to never adopt before it's ready. I remember when Vista was going to have a journaling file system, and a billion other things.

Pretty eye candy at a waste of CPU and processes. Sometimes it's wise to just leave well enough alone.

I'm wondering how long we can continue to use XP? I defenately don't wanna switch to Vista, but won't it be only a matter of time before software companies will stop supporting XP which would then basically force me and other XP users to switch to Vista?

I'm still on Win2k. Works great.

We are safe for another few more years I would think...

You can go into the options and disable that, so you don't have to deal with it.

Let's hope so..

Quite a while. You are looking at two years minimum. XP will still be viable four years from now, but by then most programs will be Vista only and no support for XP.

Vista sucks

I'll be on a mac before i'm on Vista.

What a piece of garbage.

Not saying OS X sucks .. just saying I'd make the "switch" :)

yeah Vista sucks, I have Vista Ultimate

yep to many corporations still using it and will not convert so soon so you very safe for a long long long time.

yeah.... almost everything can be edited!

OS X eye candy is a plenty too, but yeah, Vista sucks those processor cycles like gummy bears. Shame it's too much to pass off 100% to the gfx card

Easy: format c: /q

Two of the hardest things to do nowdays:

1) Buy a new PC with XP on it

2) Go back to XP after you put Vista on

:Oh crap :Hollering :waaaaahh

I won't be going near it again until a patch comes out for the connection limit

And you're not alone with that.

What do you mean saying "software companies will stop supporting XP"??? Vista has a same core (Win32/Win64 API) as all other NT-family OS's like NT 3/4, Win2K and XP. Everything what use Win32/64 API will work on ALL those systems. Excepting (maybe!!!) DirectX 10 which was announced for Vista only. However I don't plan to use DirectX 10 in my work. Do you?

Yeah, Vista gets you on the DirectX 10, if anyone hardcore gamers here here plan on playing the new Unreal Tournament game coming out later on this year, you're gonna want to have Vista and a DX10 video card.

Vista sucks ass, I finally have most of the issues worked out but what a pain in the ass to deal with.

DH

i was thinking the same thing.

Microsoft announced they will be supporting Windows XP until 2015. Don't think you have to worry about that.

Turn that off -- I did right after installing and aside from the lame Start Menu (reverted back to the XP version myself) and the huge Windows Calendar bug, I'm quite pleased with Vista.

:thumbsup

you're not the only one.. it pisses off many..

I feel ya brother. I bought 2 laptops with Vista on it! Blows donkey penises!! The alert system was another system stolen from Apple! Why isn't Bill in jail yet?
