all kinds of terrible

I can laugh at this, because I’m not using Vista. However, my mother is, and this guy is right. Nothing is compatible with Vista! It looks great on her PC, I love the new desktop features, but she can’t install anything that she was using previously. More hassle than it’s worth! Watch how this guy loads Vista onto his “machine”.

    Baahahaaa! That is hilarious. Gotta love Microshaft, as we call it at work. I love those Mac PC commercials, makes me want a Mac!

    I’m using Vista and the only program I can’t use with it that I was using on XP is Zone Alarm. But this computer came with Vista already installed. I didn’t have to install it. But that video is hilarious! LOL

    I have my laptop running vista, and will me moving my desktop soon. Seems to run better for me and have better memory allocation. Takes better hardware, but is more efficient for what I do.

    Hahahah That’s funny. It came preloaded on my laptop and I am loving it. Everything I had to reinstall works just fine so… LOL

    I’ve been using Vista since Beta 2 and the only thing I have found so far that is completely incompatible with it that I use is the Divx converter, so I moved that to the wife’s machine. I have tested several hundred apps on it over the last few months and there just aren’t that many issues. DOS games won’t run in a window and that’s a bummer because I still play the old Duke Nuken 2D scroller.

    Overall it runs muh better, and allocates resources much better than XP. Right now I am running Zoundry (my blog posting client), Firefox, Outlook 2003, Object Edit (a better notepad clone), Beyond TV, Homeseer (HA software), Logitech’s webcam software, Trillian (IM client), Windowblinds, Desktopx, Deskcaoes (animated wallpaper that plays an mpeg on mu background), and various other tools, with most of my resources free and no sluggishness. Can’t do that with XP because you run out of GDI objects and handles too quickly.
