For those of you who hate Vista...

[cityStatic]

Have you ever used it, or are you just saying that because everyone else is? Vista is the best OS Microsoft has produced.

I love Vista! I hate windows 7 with a passion. Vista is the best in my view and I know this will be cluttered with hate posts but, I love Vista. No bugs for me and works perfect on a heavy workload. Cheap too.

I've been using it for a couple years now and I still think XP is the superior operating system.

There is one thing wrong with your argument- you have no supporting reasons!

Yes i have used vista and dislike it very much.

Top 5 reasons are -

1. Very resource hogging.

2. When it first came out there drivers were worse then windows xp 64 bit version...

3. In order to make vista run at a decent speed it takes alot of tweaking.

4. The UAC on vista is very annoying this si fixed with windows 7 though.

5. Gaming on vista is kinda laggy however you again can download a program to fix that.

I prefer windows xp to vista and 7.

Why? Simple

Easy to customize

Very speedy.

Still has tons of programs for it and sometimes only it.

Does not hog ram.

Oh and programs like gimp and open office seem to load faster on it.(Yes I have compared speeds)

That is why I prefer Vista.

You must be kidding?!?!

One word, No.

Vista doesn't hog RAM, you mustn't be using the actual Vista then.

 

[David]

It does, but I barely notice it at all. My computer has like a 5 second load and everything works fast. Probably because I know how to tweak appropriately 😛

Hate vista to be honest, just never really liked it from the beginning.

XP Pro 🙂

TBH, I can function with any OS. I don't really care if its XP, Vista, 7 or a Mac. Makes no difference in what I am doing 😉

Uhmm yes it does. By default you need 512mb ram.

Also there have been many tests proving vista to be slow and a hog.

Lol, he was responding to me, the first part was meant to me a sarcastic question, and then the second part was his response.

Windows Vista was not the best OS I used. But, my PC only have 1GB of RAM. Windows Vista constantly cause my hard drive to move/swap a lot when I was doing basic tasks like a Windows Update.

I used Vista but I don't like it. I am sticking with Windows XP for now. I will definitely switch over to Windows 7 when it becomes stable enough.

 

[Callum93]

Out of XP, Vista and 7, Vista is the biggest memory hog.

I like Vista myself though I prefer Windows 7, love the new way to multitask and in my case, it's extremely fast.

If you have the 64bit version of Windows 7 it can have up to 192GB of RAM for Windows 7 pro and up.

The 64bit version of Windows 7 Home Premium supports up to 16GB

But, I don't know of any affordable motherboards that can support 192 GB of RAM except for maybe a super computer.

Vista is good.
