The Windows Vista Thread

<< < (2/3) > >>

est:
I know this is a turnabout from the last Vista thread where everyone was bashing it and I was saying it was pretty cool & that Heather wasn't having any probs with it, but I'm managing a windows network with about 60 pcs on it at the moment, 10 running Vista.  As far as business goes Vista is an awful, bloated sack of crap.  Profiles aren't compatible with XP profiles, so it needs to maintain two separate profiles.  If a user logs on to an XP machine then onto a Vista machine all of their settings are gone.  It takes forever to log on.  It takes forever to log out.  The constant, constant UAI shit pisses everyone off.  There are unavoidable driver issues with some of our printers.

and so it goes.

It is a bloated sack of crap, but if you have the hardware to run it, it seems to be working fine. I make sure widgets are off because they suck up a lot of juice. Also, having a high end graphics card seems to be helpful...

I got a free upgrade from HP, so I decided to install it, honestly, I'm glad I didn't pay full price for it. Other than that, its relatively ok, the defender freaking out and pausing everything whenever I use a new program gets a little annoying sometimes, but other than that, I don't have too many complaints.

Allegedly is the key word here, since that's a load of crap (Not windows vs Mac but it tells you about all the problems).

Also, I heard they realeased a patch for Vista that now lets you move large files!

You realize you can turn Defender off right?
