pergghh, like ur statement dude, bravo!!

Just wait for the upcoming Windows 7

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_7

The requirements are the same as Vista (but may be more) so why don't use Vista for now? Knowing that all Windows 7 requirements are same...

If you are planning to get windows today, go get vista..

after you update it with SP1, i can say my vista is doing great, no stability probs so far..yes, there has been some issues of stability in the past for vista OS, but many of them has been corrected with SP1..why choose vista over xp?for me the main reason is DX10..many new features in vista are also great..just explore it yourself

but buy original..ive used both pirated and original, and i can say the pirated one can potentially give you headaches..buy original yaa

List it down. Honestly, the "some" are so rare and old, they are not even supposed to be used anymore.
I hate it when people say "wait for Vienna" or "Wait for Windows 7" when they have no idea when it's going to be out, or even WHAT or HOW the OS was built.
For one, it's based 100% on the Vista core, and the only thing you would see is
- Change of UI
- Intergrated sidebar on desktop
- WinFS
- DX11
So basically waiting for a windows that would take like another 2~3 years down the road (Honestly with the rate of the build coming out, I'd say it would take another 4 years to finish) when it would perform the same with Vista, which basically is a lot better than XP right now, sounds kinda stupid.

And TS, just get Vista. Security wise, and ease of use wise, it's good. Memory management is miles better than XP, and you are future proofed.

ya, i noe vista startup is slow...but s i know is oni interface different...haha..

you said it yourself. XP is waaaay too old for current hardwares. If you want faster OS, why don't you use Windows 98? It got loads of "unofficial" security fixes, updates etc.

It's not soon, XP is out of production already.

Windows Vista Sp1 is stable la, so far, no problem occur..
If u planning to get Vista, make sure u upgrade the hardware component first, for better performance and experience..

ya it's out of production.windows 98 too old d.i am using xp and vista.thanks anyway.

My Vista just take about 20 sec or more (but not more than a minute)
With min system spec. Core2 Duo 1.8GHz and 1Gb of ram

Ic..i am having core2duo 2.66 and 4gb of ram..so i think should b ok gua..haha

I think better u take window XP. Because there are to many unresolved issue on windows Vista and microsoft is actually giving up and will introduce Windows 7 in second quater of 2009. Correct me if i'm wrong.

may I know what's the TOO MANY UNRESOLVED issues on Vista? and why is Microsoft giving up? Do you know that Windows 7 is built using Vista core, just like Windows 2008 was?

go vista!!

vista is great in a sense that when it starts up there is no "dead period" like XP whereby the first few seconds after start up, every program or action you do or click on cannot open immediately.

where did you get this story actually?MS giving up? a company as big as MS with great successes in the past actually know how to giving up?

You are wrong. It's just people that have nothing to do and bash Vista making up stories as they go along. believe me, when Vienna is released, the very same people would also do the same thing to it. Honestly, they are not pleased untill everyone uses linux.

get vista, no point getting an outdated version
