Why is everybody *asking* about Windows Vista???

Question

They're getting pretty much the same answer from lots of folks here...I've answered a few myself: You most likely (in 9 out of 10 or maybe even more cases) don't need Vista! I guess ol' MS needs to dance the dance sometime, though, so's they can get'er done...

Answer 1

But, Vista is a worthy upgrade, it's faster, more efficient, more reliable than XP. I've been using it for a week now, sometimes shutting down, sometimes leaving on, sometimes standing by, it's never crashed, produced a BSOD or told me a hardware device is no longer working. It has high system requirements but I was planning for Vista last year, when it was supposed to be out and have incrementally upgraded all of my systems. If you haven't been keeping up, your loss, I'll enjoy the reliability, relatively spyware and virus free (so far) world of Vista, it's your loss if you don't want it or don't see why you need it.

No programs have crashed or drivers either, because Vista won't even let you install things that it knows won't work, which is a good thing, it's going to save me a lot of trouble shooting questions.

I game, I do audio Video Editing and if your apps don't work on Vista, that's your own problem, I have yet to have issue one with it, my games work, PhotoShop CS works so I honestly don't know what you people ARE COMPLAINING ABOUT!!

If you haven't used Vista, keep your mouth shut.

Answer 2

There are three kinds of computer users.

1) Basic users that only use their computer for internet, e-mail, word-processing, etc., and don't need vista.

2) More advanced users and gamers that use their computers for games, audio/video editing, graphics, etc, that don't need vista.

3) Idiots who sit around diddling with their O/S rather than actually running applications on it, that don't need vista (but HAVE to have it...please mom?!?!!??!)
