Upgrading to Vista shouldn't be an option for any gamer in his right mind.

Ah...BULLSH*T!

Vista works just fine...RIGHT NOW!(you should see how SH4 looks and runs on MY rig) (Im running dual 8800GTX's in SLI with Vista 32bit...and it ROCKS!....unless you think 150fps is somehow a bad thing)...

Man, *two* 8800GTX's SLI'd should be able to handle pretty much anything out there right now... and more power to you if you can afford to put a system like that together. I'd say that the majority of folks on this board probably can't, myself included.

Well..If my wife knew how much I blew on my rig....she'd freak!
I actually had to save up for well over 2 years to finally afford it. Well worth the sacrifice, let me telll ya!

Anyway... the mate pissed me off by implying that Vista users were nuts to be
using it right now.. I've found it to be very stable. Now SH4 was and is a little un-stable because of it being a Beta at launch, (patches have helped...alot!) There have been some CTD's...not many at all since v1.3 though.
.
I'm just tired of the same rant from xp users...i mean their going to have to upgrade someday...so better get used to Vista...especially if they intend to play DX10 games coming in the next few years.

Cause without it...their SOL!

One little pop in here about Vista, it is just like XP when it came out. Some compatibility issues with older programs. Other then that it is stable, and runs SH4 fine on my old rig.
