Theres some pretty bad stuff inside Vista but up to now its not affected me but maybe its affected you ? http://www.dead-donkey.com/scripts/inde ... _cost.htmlDiscuss your experience with it, please no rumours or other peoples experience with it or this could get messy |
I think there's a problem there, in so far that that article is rumours. As far as i can see anyway, i'd like a more "name brand" article/journalist to support those claims because i don't know what to think of it, i thought it was all shot down a year ago.
I also think that article is more of a speculative anti-microsoft piece than anything that's overly applicable. All the backup arguments and sources appear to be from before vista even launched, and i'm actually using S/PDIF now and yet a big section of the article says i can't do that (but i guess it just means in the future it won't work, but i really don't see how)

I've been running the x64 Ultimate edition on my other PC for a few weeks now & I don't see what the fuss is all about. Its running fine so far & I've managed to get it ripping & gaming without any problems. The official beta version that I tested before was bad, couldnt get anything to work on it but the retail release seems fixed. |

I started using vista since it came on my new laptop. It was stable, the thing that annoyed me was the nagging but anyone who has really used vista knows in three or four clicks its off permantly, both the nag for performing actions and the nag about security being turned off. I'd say that's a n/a complaint for vista
I've found benchmarking claims against it to be an utter fabrication, infact network speed, file system access, and searching is HUGELY quicker and heavily optimised.
The problem i had with vista was a BSOD when i attempted to isntall with 4GB of ram installed. I had to take out a stick, install, patch and then put the stick back in.
