Please only answer if you own Vista. Are there alot of compatibility problems ? Is its security all it's touted to be?

No - not yet. Give it 12 months for the bugs to be ironed out - and bear in mind that its not compatible with a lot of stuff yet.

I got a vista about 6 months ago and Now its working fine but then there are lots of programs u don't need. I pretty much like it because of the Mcafee program.

well i must say it looks nice and all.. but there are many problems with it.. if ur going to get a new computer all together then maybe u shud get it but there are alot of compability problems.. with almost everything i have i can't connect.. if u just install it to ur comp u have now u might need to upgrade lots of things like ur graphics card and many things... its security is really annoying, it will ask u for premission to do almost everything even if ur the administrator, maybe in a couple years it will be better but to be honest, i suggest u dont get it, its a waste of time, xp is better :D hope i helped

Look bro. if u r lookin for animations its the best with all visual effects. But it also eats much of ur computer resources. Also the game which needs 512 mb for xp needs 1gb RAM for vista. I say its based upon how u like it, means visual effects or PERFORMANCE. Ok

I have vista, and have not found it any better than windows. I would in fact say stick with windows. There are still to many things out there that are not compatiable with vista

actually it is worth it and all the stuff is compatible to make it compatible just go to start then hepl and support type in windows compability wizard from there it gives you windows xp windows 2000 windows 98 mac and etc just click on one and it'll let u use those setting so you can use the program or whatever you need to install.

I have vista ultimate, I paid $400 for it it is worth every penny. you can find more softwares and drivers now than before and every month pass you will find more and more.it is more secure and reliable than xp. some people don't like it because it is new and they have to get used to it.

Xp is still better. eye candy, some security advancements but nothing, yes it still has horrible driver support and compatibility problems, good luck if your a gamer, its not a bad os other then that tho, make sure if your getting it you atleast have 1gig or ram, 2 is better tho.
