Who's getting Vista?

[kurups]

I'm pretty iffy on it. I'm not sure yet if it's worth the 200 bucks or whatever they are charging. Any input as to wheather or not it's worth it?

[Fuggle]

Whether*

Well, I'll wait til I get some feedback from buddies first before emptying my pocket. It's not like they've stopped the XP shit yet, so I'm not very worried yet.

[Mathalamus]

yes for two words

speech recognition

[kurups]

Regardless of what is said from here out I made my decision to not get it due to the fact that it logs and reports illegal activity.

speech recognition

xp can do that...

wtfF??? where'd u read that from? wouldnt that be considered as uh.. illegal itself?

[Loits]

[Mathalamus]

xp can do that...

[kurups]

Uhm, would what be considered illegal. And I've read it multiple times.

[Mathalamus]

downloading music from the net, porn, abuseing your computer (like to spy on people) etc is illegal

Didn't you hear?
They passed a new bill that makes Microsoft above the law.
Why else would smaller competitors be found with broken arms?
Jef Raskin was smart and hired a bunch of dim-witted thugs to be his personal body guards, so he was pretty much safe until he mysteriously 'passed away' at the age of 61.
And Linus Torvalds is lucky in that his being is not one person. The name itself was a scramble of the first names of the Project Leaders of Unix. The true identity of these heroes were never revealed to the public, and probably won't be for the safety of their families. However, the Project was developed into a 'collective' which was far too vast for Microsoft to even scratch the edges of.
However, this does not stop 'Bill' to find the smaller fries.

Tried vista and dont like it. Definately sticking with XP for now.

[Mathalamus]

im sticking with XP cause i dont think the games i have (including D2) will woprk on vista

can anyone confirm it works?

[PoTatoes]

Gayy so you cant get stuff from limewire and bearshare if you got vista? Also hacking in d2 is also "illegal" so we would all be reported.

[Mathalamus]

lmfao thats a good one but i have my own computer so all illegally activity is reported to me

[Tap]

well this is basically an attempt at a User-friendly version of linux.
Ill get it because i like it more than xp. but as far as using it im contempt that debian is the greatest os ever.

Linux FTW

O.K. plain and simple. Vista has a feature that allows remote operation of your PC via internet for "tech support" purposes. That in my opinion is B.S. and I refuse to trust it! Hell even XP shares some information from your computer to Microsoft. Laugh all you like but I still stand by 2000PRO for my purposes. I will only resort to XP or Vista when I am absolutely forced to do so. Honestly I might give up computers entirely when that happens...

[Fuggle]

Uh.. Phoenix that's not really new, Tech support has always asked you to do that, hell it's been around since like 2000. Ever heard of PCAnywhere? or GoToMyPC?

[godlylegend]

Vista degrades performance. Stick with XP.

PS: It uses more electricty. Costing you even MORE!@#!@

[Dan]

XP pro 64 bit is good enough for me, i'll get vista after its been out a few years

Hello! I want to know, where you have a section for advertising at a forum? Or it is not present? I have not found it. P.S. Are you see storm in Europe? It's a horror...
