Yea, it does seem preety bad, but they must of upgraded it in updates because i play Oblivion on all the same settings as in XP, and its around the same, infact most applications perform faster for me what i use than they did in Windows XP, i am sticking to Vista, probs one of the few that has allready changed, but i have Windows XP still installed incase there is big problems with Vista.
Sure Vista is awsome for me, but i just read an email fro CNET.
"Finally, the long-awaited Windows Vista is here! And whether you are a Microsoft fan or not, you probably can't help but hear the buzz on Vista. It's been five years since the launch of XP, and people are looking forward to big changes for Windows. But the question for everyday home users is, is there much change at all? Or are we talking about a very expensive service pack upgrade for Windows XP? According to Microsoft, one of the reasons to upgrade to Vista is that it is suppose to be more secure, but according to the latest CNET Security Watch column: "That $200 Windows XP service pack called Vista", Senior Editor Robert Vamosi points out that "most of the touted security enhancements in Windows Vista don't appear in the Home Premium and Basic versions, and what is there, what's not already available within Windows XP, could have fit into a free Windows XP service pack instead of requiring a $200 upgrade." Now that's one expensive service pack! So does that mean we're paying a couple of hundred bucks for something a little prettier, maybe a bit easier to use, but you still have to tightly manage security on your own? Personally, I say "no, thanks," at least to the home or basic versions. So what do you think? Do you agree with Rob's column? Why or why not? Read his article and get talking--because we want to know exactly what's on your mind about Vista."
I think this may be true, a Service pack with some big problems :P
I admit, Vista has previously ruined my HDD and has messed other peoples computers up too and locked them out of XP!!
