Vista feedback

February 26th, 2007


Much frustration Vista creates!


Seriously speaking now, people tend to dislike the new operating system from Microsoft. For many a reason that is, but in the top there seem to be the incompatibility with a great deal of hardware devices, driver problems, installation problems, high requirements, etc.

The question is: To Vista or not to Vista?

    he seems pretty satisfied ;)

  2. Bogdan Popa:

    Well he’s not exactly the exigent programmer type!

    I have it one my laptop and have had no issues with it. It actually seems to run smother and faster than the same machine running XP. I am using this machine for Visual Studio development of ASP.NET

    Was a lot easier getting .NET v3 and AJAX1.0 Running on it.

  4. Bogdan Popa:

    As one might see that’s not the case for everybody. :)

    When Windows XP got live, I was still using Win Me and my old PII, so I had to wait a while until I could use the new OS. But that eventually got better, computers got replaced, and I’m sure things will change for Vista as well by 2010.

    That guys an idiot. I’m running vista right now and its nothing but a pleasure to use. Hasn’t blue screened on me once since I installed the final release. During install, it found all my components, set them all up including the drivers and just beautifully installed itself in 20 min.

    If your the kind of person who believes that things should run on your old p3, maybe you should stick with linux (Even Macs require powerfull computing power).

    Sure its not as “beautiful” as a mac but I’d rather forgo that then sell my soul to Jobs infernal spoilt apple core. Stupid macs. :-)

    Well I myself have tried Vista and wasn’t THAT much of a hussle. I had problems with my webcam and graphic tablet installation. But there are other sides of the problem to: EULA info

    So you’re saying Bill Gates and Paul Allen don’t collect souls? How do you think they’d gotten their devilishly-good looks?

  9. Ronn:

    I can sympathize with that guy. I just bought a new laptop with Vista installed. None of my printers would work, most of my software would not work, the stupid OS kept asking me “did the software install properly?” How do I know? Can’t tell until I try to use it and I can’t try it until I answer the stupid question.
    Long story short-Went out and bought XP and installed it.

    I think Vista is the most infuriating, most useless pos i have even heard of. I hate it a will be changing back as soon as i can . It irritates me on a daily basis.
