*Not* Happy with Vista
i also did say that I would not buy Vista, but then it came installed as a pre-loaded OS on my new Toshiba laptop.
i am saddened as how uncapable it is, and how annoying its security system is.
I can't run many of my old Win2K programs with the right compatibility, and any time I try to run something that isn't "Windows Vista approved" it throws a bunch of dialog boxes my way asking me if I'm REALLY sure I want to run it.
It runs slower than dogshit, which shouldn't be a problem on a 2Gig memory, 1.8Ghz dual core system. I can't even run any iTunes video on it without it freezing up.
I can barely run more than 5 applications at any one time without some serious memory swapping. ReadyBoost is a joke and actually causes my system to run slower.
Vista is a horrible system, and I wouldn't even offer it to my enemies.
The only thing I can agree with the previous submitter is that the crappy add-ons make the system truly unusable.
