Good reliable code?

I don't understand why you first say you hope everyone switches to Vista, then mock the OS.

I didn't really understand that. Are you suggesting that Microsoft should not try to make windows be improved? All new code starts out as untested. I don't really get how you could create code that has been tested before you thought of it.

You better read this and be carefull not to skip the M$ os evolution part Good read

About the code, I mean they changed the one that resisted the atacks, that had no obvious flaw.
Why everybody switch to Vista? We will gain more targets and we may be able to get more info from them, it will be easyer for us( other os users) to learn .

The hardware requirements alone make Vista a non option for me. Why would you want to replace so many thing just to run such bloatware with just a few eyecandies ??

It's the hardware manufacturers who are going to be very happy with all this !!

well, i'll switch vista within a year or up, i'm not contented with xp, i want to explore more. i don't think there will be a bug, coz before they release vista, they tested first the longhorn which after their experiment and improvision, windows vista came out. so, there isn't nothing to worry about.

Oooooh, fo` sure... If that's true, I'll do the monkey with you...

I'll never switch to Vista. 5 years ago I switched to *nix systems. I want freedom

i will swich to vista when it comes out because i always had the newest windows. And I want to stay on that tradition. But I don't think i will use vista for long because vista eats a lots of ram, and my primary use of this computer is gaming.

I will not switch to Vista on my personal computer systems, as all my needs are sufficed with the current Windows XP for the games only, other than that, *n*x systems (specially Gentoo Linux Distro, and OpenBSD) suit my personal non-gaming needs.

Edit: Fixed some spelling errors

I think I just wont change to "that thing" since I'm happy with linux...nevertheless I'm still a newbie, but anyways happy with it. Choosing windows again is like walking back, I don't feel secure with that.

This remembers me the polemic of some years ago... about Windows 9x to Windows XP migration... The most of advanced users will change after sometimes, because we all know that the first versions of windows are suicide...

Remember lssas.exe vulnerability? and MS.Blaster? Those ones really screwed many peoples, so thats why i'll change after +/- 6 months... and i need also one RAM upgrade to 1024... so it'll be among "Windows Vista Capable" Specs.

Bye o/...

Definately moving to vista as soon as it comes out to see what its like an learn all the new features. I might dual boot with XP - im really not sure. Hopefully microsoft can do it right this time but i really have my doubts from what ive seen so far.

Probably never, feel more and more like a Big Brothers OS. To scared to upgrade. Poeple hardly know what M$ does on WinXP.

But that's just in my opinion.

I dont think microsoft particiapte in many "big brother" activities - but their main problems lie in the quality of their software and the expections that people put on them given that they are such a big company with lots of money.

hm I think I won't use Viste until I need to use it (for example DX10)
