kjohnson Posted January 25, 2008 Report Share Posted January 25, 2008 The Release Candidate isn't final code. To get the full, less-buggy version, buy the retail version that's out (since January of 2007). Link to comment
ultimatsz Posted January 25, 2008 Report Share Posted January 25, 2008 i just move to vista for a try. the only thing that is different is free windowfx thingy .. if you get what i mean. aero... yes kina lag... the best i can get is 46% of physical memory with a 1gb ram. maybe it is not good for me because i m using pata harddisk with sata controller. anyways heres how my desktop lookie Link to comment
SbuxBlaze Posted January 25, 2008 Report Share Posted January 25, 2008 Lots of people have tried vista. Its not too bad, although the only thing I like about it is aero :slant: and directx 10. I use XP most of the time even though I also have vista Link to comment

Sir Pimpalot Posted January 26, 2008 Report Share Posted January 26, 2008 I've been using it for quite a while now and love it. Better than XP and Leopard IMO. (not as good as Tiger or Ubuntu though.)I really like the way it handles non-responsive programs and multitasking, the new explorer and indexed search is better, Aero is nice too, but it grows on you after a while and you start to dislike it. I absolutely hate the default icons, sidebar, and defender (which I keep turned off) though. Link to comment

Astyanax Posted January 28, 2008 Report Share Posted January 28, 2008 Not only that, he's using RC1... WHOA !!!Actually, its impossible. RC1 has a time limit on it, which ended last year in July I believe. Maybe he meant RC1 of SP1? Link to comment

mr dsgnd Posted January 29, 2008 Report Share Posted January 29, 2008 I've got to say I enjoy using Vista so much more than I do XP, personally I find it to be a far better OS. Though I have to agree with Sir Pimpalot, there are a few things you develop a disliking for.But... I made the move to OSX Leopard just before Christmas and haven't used Vista much since then. It only ever gets used when I play games. Link to comment
davidsword Posted January 29, 2008 Report Share Posted January 29, 2008 vista made me move to leopard.not that vista was that bad, as I was just using it for basic stuff.. osx is just so much better, Link to comment

Dream_Team Posted January 30, 2008 Report Share Posted January 30, 2008 You know, many are complaining about the ram usage in Vista ... Launch "Activity Monitor" in Leopard and you will be like "wow" Link to comment
rjohnstone Posted January 30, 2008 Report Share Posted January 30, 2008 sighI couldn't agree more.Some people just don't get it do they? Link to comment
Sir Pimpalot Posted January 30, 2008 Report Share Posted January 30, 2008 You know, many are complaining about the ram usage in Vista ... Launch "Activity Monitor" in Leopard and you will be like "wow" And most of those people are using Leopard on systems that meet the required specs instead of something from '01, so they don't complain.

yberdo Posted February 6, 2008 Report Share Posted February 6, 2008 I'm with vista, and i like it, i can do what i want, and all programs, games etc. work fine for me. And i have quate good hardware for it Link to comment
Dream_Team Posted February 6, 2008 Report Share Posted February 6, 2008 And most of those people are using Leopard on systems that meet the required specs instead of something from '01, so they don't complain. Yeah they don't say anyhing when it won't run on their G3 if they patched the dvd. It's like "there has to be a reason for my G3 to be blacklisted for Leopard install" Apple limit OSes to the not so old machines so no one complains but if Microsoft did ... But that would get rid of the complains "zomg Vista is slooow on 256mb M$ sucks woot lool" Link to comment
