Vista!!!

[DX]

Hi all,

thought I would finally share my experience, shortly after vista was
released I purchased new hardware and started my install of my nice new
Vista Ultimate, after a week of headaches I finally got it to install.

It was very unreliable, reboots kept locking up and in the end I returned to
XP.

Yesterday, I found a bios update for my motherboard, flashed it, then
reinstalled vista.

A) it installed first time
b) the reliability has improved 150%, it is now a joy to use!

The moral of the story is people should not blame vista, but the hardware
they are using it on, I guess my need
to jump on the band wagon and be the first to use it didn't pay off!!!!, now
hardware vendors are finally updating drivers/bios for the OS, I hope your
experience will become good too!!

Did you check that your hardware works with vista?

That doesn't make any difference! You still should switch to Linux!

Try PrettyTinyPCLinuxFreeBuntuNix. It's pretty good, I've been told.

Geez, Mr. A, did it ever occur to you that I was joking? Have you ever
heard of "PrettyTinyPCLinuxFreeBuntuNix"?

How am I suppose to know you were joking? It look legit to me. It could
have been a new version because of the names that are given to Linux. Here
is a new one just out called *HowdyDutyTime* Linux.
