As for Flash Drives, I don't use them at the moment, but I'd still skip Vista with how badly it does everything else...

You are right. That didn't use to work on this box!!!!

The other two that should work on both platforms - Windows key + E (I use that constantly) and Windows key + Pause

Most of the stuff on your Vista list works on XP as well (Looking at it...all the useful stuff)

SUBMAN1 · 07-01-08, 02:27 PM

I think they added some as time went on. A lot of these didn't use to work.

Personally, I still like Vista. If you actually give it a chance and get it set up the way that you want, it is a very nice OS. All of this "ME II" junk that people keep saying is a misnomer. ME was derided (and correctly so) for being full of bugs. Since I've had Vista on my machine for over a year now, I've found it to be an incredibly stable platform.
