Yeah, name doesn't matter to me either, sooner or later we will get used to it
It is useless for a OS to have a wonderful name but costs you a bomb and yet fails to perform I'd rather to see the next release to impress me in term of quality. |

QUOTE(Dead__Man @ Jul 23 2005, 12:40 AM) Longhorn reminds me of long and horny, and that's really not what I want of Windows, so I prefer Vista. It is probably to compensate Bill Gates' weaknesses, which is Micro and soft   |

Instead of the name, why not we talk about all the little changes. There will be no "My Computer", "My Document" and "My Pictures" etc....
All will eventually be changed to "Documents", "Photos" etc, which 'makes life easier', according to microsoft  |

Hmm, seriously I don't think the Icons need to be that big
Maybe Microsoft have their own reason behind  |

QUOTE(vickyrao @ Aug 26 2005, 06:34 PM) wahh..not bad...vista komanwel in bukit jalil release new windows vista???cool.....or did microsoft cetak rompak vista from vista komanwel??i wonder?? Stop commenting about the name la but personally...the name sux.....windows longhorn is nicer.... Longhorn is the codename and Vista is the official name, it's the fact already The name itself doesn't imply in any way how the system performs, or looks like Would people refrain from using Windows Vista just because its name sucks? I doubt |

ckhoong: are you sure it is build 5219 that you're talking about? in build 5219 it's still Windows Media Player 10 rather than 11
Or it was 5231 that you were trying to say? Anyway, I've upgraded my card to ATI Radeon 9550 GT, hopefully it will run smoother...But will try it once I got 5231 |
