Default How to make XP into Vista in 12 easy steps!


1) Take a PC with a freshly installed XP
2) Hack the start button and remove the word "start", so no one will know
where the start button is, then change the graphic so it looks like a
decoration.
3) Destroy the start menu so it wont cascade, so you will have to scroll
endless hours to find a simple program
4) Install hidden processes that will make your hard disk work full speed
24/7 for no apparent reason
5) Find a horrible theme, that does not work with all aplications and needs
an expensive graphic card to work
6) Thow a virus in that will delete all the imporant menus from IE, WMP and
windows explorer
7) Empty all your cds onto your hard drive to take up the space a vista
installation would take....
8) Go and buy twice as much ram, hard disks, and cpu power just so you can
run the same programs as before
9) Take your paycheck and throw it off a bridge into the sea.. because thats
how much vista costs.... ~600 ? for ultimate?
10) find a program that will simulate random lock ups and blue screens....
11) Throw in another virus that will rearrange where things was, for no
apparent reason, just for the heck of it!
12) From your applications remove random files so they wont work correctly

I know it was 12, but here is one more for free

Open all ports to microsoft so they can check everything you do, give them
your passwords and credit card number...
and say goodbye to your audio collection because drm will refuse to play it
more than once!


There you have it! Complete XP to Vista transformation!

Go do it now and live the vista experience before its on the shelves!!!

How to find a troll in one easy step...

1.) Read the ramblings below...

If you really think this is all Vista is it's clear you have never used it.

suspect..

Default Re: How to make XP into Vista in 12 easy steps!

Glad to make you smile....

however whether I give you proof or not does not
change the reality of the things I state...

ok the 12 ways to make xp into vista post was a joke of course... but it is
an exaggeration of the truth...

The only reason I don't give facts is that I would need several hours to
make it correctly, because if I don't do a good job people will think of
things to deny what I say..

So that would mean either I sit down and spend a day on
explaining every detail.. or not do it at all....

And even if I do that, there are some hardcore MS followers in here that
cannot open their mind to any other opinion...

I have no real desire to convince everyone that I am right and create a
whole controversy... this needs too much energy..

so I prefer to make "light" statements... that are however true.... and make
some jokes seeing the funny side of it all.

Now do you understand? I can give facts, but I chose not to....
