This is not reassuring me into getting Vista. I'd wait till 2008 (and some more relatively positive reports) so I can get a working Vista out of the box. There are enough problems with computers that there's no need to add the OS into the mess.

Thing is Vista Ultimate is a working version in my opinion. Yeah like Geetrue said still too early, maybe ask me in a few months time, but at the moment im pretty rapt with it. Thing that got me, is i read about driver problems galore and old hardware will be a headache, well its the complete oposite in my case

Not trying to sound pro vista, but If its the money holding you back okay fare enough, but if its the rumors dont hold back just DO IT!

Get Vista Ultimate or Premium edtion now!

Im off to hug my Vista box

What I really need now are some significant pluses to Vista. It seems like with each OS generation, the general requirements double. Many programs also claim to require more memory working with newer OSes. Barring imminent obsolescence, it will take some real advantages for me to counternance that. Yeah, there are some improvements, but DOUBLE the system resource requirements?

Vista good?, each word I understand perfectly when there alone but if you put them together there just jibberish.

:p

you can play SH3 on Vista 32 with no problem.

Lagger123987 · 05-12-07, 03:29 PM

Ok, I get what vista is, I am going to buy vista basic do to the fact that I'm living in an appartment and have low incomes.

From what I gather Vista is a gigantic flop - MS will release something different in 2008. It will be based on Vista, but they will have to throw some things overboard that the customers dont embrace. Same happened with Windows Me, and it seems "MeII" is going to be the inofficial name for Vista ..

Apart from that its much too expensive.

Well I've been waiting for the Service Pack to come out b4 I update to Vista which hopefully will have given various companies enough time to provide the drivers needed to run well with Vista.

Can you provide a link for info to the 2008 release you are referring to?

Of course not. That is a prediction of mine

Godalmighty83 · 05-13-07, 12:22 PM

is it £370* worth of good?

i cant help but think no. id rather have a 8800gtX

*rrp, you can find it cheaper but still $740...no thanks.

geetrue · 05-14-07, 11:04 AM

How much is 370 pounds ... sounds like a lot of money.

Vista Home Premium cost $115 dollars plus $5.00 s&h

Vista Ultimate is around $199.00

Works for me ... don't get the basic Vista is you like multi-media

Bort · 05-14-07, 11:14 AM

I just ordered a new computer last week after my old one's hard drive fizzled.

So Vista really isn't a question for me, I mean what am I supposed to do, get XP for it? I'm looking forward to using Vista, regardless of the headaches, at least it will be an adventure!

Yup, it is. To put that figure into some sort of context - I live in a two bedroomed house, with a bathroom, kitchen and 2 downstairs living areas (a standard terraced house for the UK) My rent every 4 weeks is £450.00. So, in realistic terms it's £80.00 short of a months rent for me.

I'll stick with my 300 quid copy of XP PRO thanks... no wonder Micro$oft makes so much cash.
