'Years from now, when you've moved on to Windows 7, you'll look back at Windows Vista fondly. You'll remember its fabulous attributes, not its flaws.'

With their heads so far up their asses, it's amazing that they can see the light of day at all!

Shit, all I'm going to remember is how bad I wanted to break stuff. I hate vista with a passion, and I'm stuck with it until a legit leaked WORKING copy of W7 is released onto the Internets.

Jax if you can find a cd of xp I can get you some numbers for it. The main problem with Vista is that most pc can't run it or run VERY slow on it. I have no problems out of Vista. I've seen to many pc at work with Vista on it and it has like a 1.9 dual core with 512mb of ram, no video card. NO NO NO!!!! That system will not run Vista right, you will have all kinds of problems with it. But that is my view on the subect.

Windsow 7 on the other hand will be sweet. I have it on my pc at work and its a 3.0 single core, 1G of ram, and a shity video card and it has no problem running Windows 7.

Lol'd irl at it switching your language to Japanese. That's really amusing ;D Sure you didn't click a different language on one of the updates?

@Cursed - I'm going to wait it out before I ever switch back to xp. Was setting up my sisters Dell Inspiron Mini, and it has XP on it.. and ew. Hopefully I'll have a completly new rig by the time W7 is out, with a lot of kinks worked out.

Shame RockersTeam closed or something.

On a powerful machine, vista ain't so bad. It seems I am finally getting used to 64bit ultimate only to have it be replaced by Windows 7...

Fortunately I never pay for any of this crap, otherwise I would be pissed.

7 will be the first OS I go out and buy.


I want the 64 bit and I don't want the trouble of getting a hacked version. The only ones I get free are like basic.

hehe, you're like me. I'm taking a shot in the dark, but if it does release oct 22nd, then it should be around December at most until a working, legit crack of w7 is out.

I honestly wish Rockersteam would come back up. They had the BEST custom OS's out, and they was safe, and actually worked.

fyi, smoke's going under the computer programming department :coolthumbup:

VB = Fun C++ = Fucking boring.

Java = ?

And meh, I'll just wait for the actual version. Heard lots of complaints about how lame windows 7 is.
