| | people paying top dollar to AVOID vista Lol stories like these are creepy.... people are paying whatever it takes to get new comptuers with the last copies of XP around... I wont say a price, but some people are selling computers with XP on them for multiple times the cost XP nomally costs! The prices are going up for this classic gem, because the alternative is getting vista.... HA! And we all know what that means... HEY! No we dont! Some actually like the creepy crawler. Guys its slow... its very slow... its unstable, it acts funny, it behaves strange... Yesterday I got white screen all over the desktop shading everything saying MICROSOFT WINDOWS IS NOT RESPONDING AND MUST CLOSE! lol.... the thing is that that white sceen that shades normally is for applications, not for all of windows! Ive been hacking at the services trying to streamline the darn thing so it will work.. its like putting a rino on diet... it just doesnt work guys! I see it in the near future..sealed copies of XP pro selling on ebay for 2000 -3000 dollars... PEOPLE ARE DEMANDING XP, and are frustrated with vista! Its true, and its happening.... and I told you so! |

Anyone? Bueller? Obviously the two can be related. But Vista is slow out of the box. As for unstable, acts funny, behaves strange, that says diddly. I haven't experienced any instability other than the 1st 2 weeks. M$ worked out those bugs with fixes. Though it still wanders off in [not responding], and I can make that happen at will. Had to really be beating on XP to get that happen. I can get it to happen while writing this. But it eventually catches up and recovers. It just takes awhile = SLOW to respond. -- more pix @ http://members.toast.net/cbminfo/index.html |

Vista is fast as lightening, and I'm not even using latest hardware (P4 @ 3giga, 1GB RAM, nVidia GeForce7). I think most of these people moaning about Vista have never used it, or they are using pirated versions (i.e. ripped off old beta releases) and are only here for the troll. -- SeriousShave ------------------------------------------------------------------------ SeriousShave's Profile: http://forums.techarena.in/member.php?userid=24875 View this thread: http://forums.techarena.in/showthread.php?t=738395 http://forums.techarena.in |
