Windows Vista is great

Krusty the Clown would approve of it.

PS: has anyone purchased a new PC with Vista on it and tried uninstalling Vista to install XP?? :lol:

Its a pain having to be forced to purchase a new PC with Vista on it and greater pain to install XP (uninstall vista )

Nooooo.....

Why would anyone buy a new pooter w/Vista (they don't give you Vista for free, it's embedded in the price) and then uninstall Vista and put in XP? Wouldn't it be better to keep the old pooter that has XP and if you want, buy a newer pooter with Vista? You can put them side by side. Race them. Hold beauty contests. Vista has that all powerful "Kung Fu grip"! Collect em all! Be the first kid on your block!

Imo, Vista is decent. When it first came out, it was crap. Same as Windows XP when it came out, if you remember.

But after lot's of updates it's o.k. now, but still not perfect.

I've had Windows 95, 98, 2000, XP, & now Vista.

But one bad thing about Vista, is that if you want it to run good, you have to tweak it... a lot. Especially if you want to play decent games, which I do a lot on my computer. And a lot of people aren't happy with that or do not know how to tweak it, so they just go ahead and stamp the "Reject" stamp on Vista. Which is what people did to XP years ago, haha. Ironic much?

In time, I think Vista can be improved, but you need a decent computer at the same time to be able to run Vista efficiently. It takes 1 GB just to run the program decently.

Hello Celestral and welcome to the forum :)

Makes a change to have someone posting about vista not being all bad.

Haha, thanks. I finally decided to make a forum account after using CCleaner for a long time.

It has been discovered why Vista runs slowly:

I've found Vista a tweaker's toy. I've played with my dad's Vista with most of OEM crap filling up the RAM. I say it's just pretty decent, with all the resource-monger eye-candy stuff. After tinkering with it, I was able to reduce the memory consumption and increase the performance a bit. It basically needs improvements, from performance to resource usage.

It reminds me of ME's days. :(

It reminds me of a bad road trip where one can't wait to get back to cozy XP-ville. Seriously if MS makes another Vista and when XP is finally buried they may see a drop in their user base. Loyalty won't last forever with flop OSes that must be purchased, and it isn't something the masses have to use or buy the next time around especially with other choices such as Linux, etc.

Well, Windows 7 sounds like it's gonna be Vista on WinFS.

i reckon vista 64 will be my next system, if, by the time, it's still there

i dont notice any speed or performance differences between my vista 32 or 64 bit systems...
