I have fiddled with Windows Vista every now and then. Especially when repairing some of the newest computers.
More or less, there are some things that Windows Xp can do which Windows Vista cannot. Many games do not work with Vista. And I have noticed that the bulk of Windows Vista sales here in Australia are OEM preloads on new machines. And the majority of people buying such new computers are wiping the hard drives and installing Windows Xp. Particularly Windows Xp Professional.
I have also noticed that nearly all the reviewers in the computer magazines have been slating Windows Vista as the biggest fizzler since Windows Me. Nevertheless, I have heard a bit of noise regarding Vista's first service pack. Maybe the service pack will trim away the loose ends on Vista and then it will take off as mainstream.
Personally speaking, I think Windows Vista is a flash in the pan. And Windows Xp with Service Pack 2 doesn't fail me. I would like to see how Xp Service pack 3 pans out when it's released.
Now, are there any Vista users out there who have any opinions? Let's see what they think of Vista compared to Xp.
