Windows XP vrs Vista

[El Cugino]

I have a copy of Vista coming. It's been shipped. My friend got a
new computer with Vista already on it. Can someone tell me why I
should put Vista on my Computer. We made Vista have the classic look
thinking that would help. Everything seems to run much slower than XP
and it keeps asking are you sure when doing something. His computer
is a P4 with 1 gig of mem. Am I missing something? Is this really an
upgrade operating system? What will it do that XP won't.

Best to post to a Vista newsgroup. Also do some Google searching about
Vista. There is a a ton of info written about it. The vista general
newsgroup is microsoft.public.windows.vista.general

If you don't already know the answer to those questions, why did you order a
copy of Vista? Upgrades should be driven by something new that you need or
yearn for, not just because they are available.
