Come back in a couple weeks, when the shininess has worn off and you are a sobbing, hysterical mess.

I've been using it 4 months. No real problems (knock on wood).

It's a Windows-ized version of OS-X. It's made for idiots. Unfortunately, people who aren't idiots can't find anything with Vista.

I'm an IT guy. I can set up an XP computer on our network in about 2 minutes. It took me 15 minutes on Vista. NOTHING is in a place that makes sense. But it's pretty and flashy!

As I mentioned earlier..... Vista blows goats.

Lady, people aren't chocolates. Do you know what they are mostly? Bastards. ####### coated bastards with ####### filling. But I don't find them half as annoying as I find naive bobble-headed optimists who walk around vomiting sunshine.

The interface is only one of the problems. Yes, everything has been gratuitously and illogically moved around. There was no real philosophy put into the interface, they just wanted to make it look pretty. Sit down and use a Mac sometime and you will see exactly what I'm talking about. OS X (the Mac OS) was carefuly designed from the ground up to be intuitive. Vista wasn't so much designed as ordained by committee.

But the biggest problem with Vista is that it's simply a resource hog. Walk away from your computer sometime with no applications running. Come back in an hour and listen to your disk drive churning. And I don't mean a little click here and there. I mean heavy duty IO. What is it doing? I don't know. I have dual-core pentiums, 8GB memory, and a 500GB hard drive. My Vista machine is anything but resource starved. And yet it thrashes away continuously. (no, it's not antivirus or anything else. I shut all that down looking for what the issue might be, and it's a brand new installation, no shareware, etc.)

There's something wrong with an operating system that requires a minimum of 2GB memory just to run the OS. Especially when you consider that it's only job in life is to run your spreadsheets and games and browser.
