Really!
No freezes, faults, crashes, breakdowns. Everything works
perfectly including my old custom stuff from W95 days. Speed is
about the same as XP. Vista repairs itself, defrags the drive,
protects my work, solves problems on its own. The sidebar has
seriously useful gadgets that make life easier. Files and
folders are now easier to find, in any of several ways.

I came by looking for more joy, gadgets, exploitation stories,
and high fives -- and learned that people happy with Vista don't
waste time here. That leaves the rest...
 
Wow, what a coincidence, that makes two of us! But if there is two of us
without problems, maybe there are more! And if there are more, maybe many
more!

Of course there are not two or three like us but millions already enjoying
Vista. Lots of people who come to list like this either have difficulties
with whatever system they use or are just finding one aspect of a new system
a problem. Of course there will always be the trouble makers who want to
knock MS at every opportunity, but they are just Trolls.

there are millions that have trouble with vista, in fact I don't know anyone
who doesn't have problems with vista or doesn't hate it.

You are a troll... since you want to extrapolate your lousy observations to
the whole world!

GET LOST ALREADY!!!

You guys do not understand that being pro-crap, does not make you positive
people.

You may like crap but in effect you are the negative ones and you are the
trolls.
Personal experience counts very little in this case

The masses dislike vista and its everywhere on the internet. If you cannot
see it,
you are surfing the world wide web with blindfolds!

I have Vista on three machines, and have been using Vista regularly
for over a year. Vista is stable and works good.... but so did XP.
What are you doing that is amazingly better/faster in Vista?
Please, don't say search. WDS which is built into Vista is available
for XP, and there's Copernic, Yahoo Desktop Search, Google Desktop search, too.
Sidebar? Please, there are a few free alternatives for XP that do the exact
same thing and better. Prettier graphics is about all there is to the "wow".

This statement that you made sums up my biggest complaint
about Vista; "Speed is about the same as XP". All these years
after XP, all the advances since XP, and this is what we get- a
"new" OS where "Speed is about the same as XP".

Some will list other internal improvements of Vista, but for the most
part, this is still the most common thing said about Vista, like it's
supposed to be a good thing; "Speed is about the same as XP".
Over five years later and a supposed $6 billion plus later we get an OS
that is "almost as good as XP", or "a bit better". That's it?
I'm not impressed.

The amazing thing about some of those comments, they are coming
from users who have bought new computers with plenty of power and
Vista already installed. Dam straight Vista should be seem faster than
what they had.... and more than just "a bit" or "almost as fast" as XP.

Vista is not crap, but I am so underwhelmed.

You forgot about the groovy anti piracy program Vista users get to
participate in on a regular basis. Yaknow, calling India all the time to
prove you're not a thief ... wow!

What happened to innocent until proven guilty?

Now its guilty and you have to prove you are innocent many times a year!

Vista is very aggressive and it calls home way too much... more than XP.
Now I understand why so many people made a fuss with activation on XP.
Because it opened the door to all this crap....

And now you know what MS said? They will enable the same activation
technology for other 3rd party products! So if they hurl all the industry
into this stupid anti-piracy strategy...
they wont have that many fingers pointing at them alone!

This is sick and this is NOT the way they should have countered the effects
of piracy.

Piracy is not good no.. but monitoring the use of software like this is far
far far far far worse! FREEDOM above all.

Sounds like a good idea. Pirates are whining about it, it must be
working.

What should they have done? Copy protected DVDs? Been there,

Ah yes, the old chestnut "I am enslaved to Microsoft". What a load of

This isn't a list. You're posting to a newsgroup, if you realize it or
not. People that take the time to point out what's wrong with a
product and offer offer workarounds aren't trouble makers, they're
providing a public service.

People that are easily brainwashed, seems to describe you, often are
clueless Microsoft apologists and gladly accept lame excuses why
Microsoft in over twenty years of trying still hasn't been able to
give the public an initial release of any version of Windows that
wasn't flawed in several areas, desperately needing patches, fixes and
major rewriting which happens six to nine months later in some service
pak. Sorry if reality isn't your thing. Now I return you to your
fantasy world.

That *is* the reality. Normal people accept it.

> Now I return you to your fantasy world.


The fantasy world is trolls like you who expect huge, complex software
packages (such as an OS) that must run on thousands of hardware
configurations all around the world to be perfect and bug free on
initial release.

To anyone who has ever written/tested/marketed/supported *any* software
at all, you know this is simply not possible.

Mike
 
No Mike.. we dont want perfection...

but we DO want something very very very very good!
MS COULD pull it off if there is some company in the world that can.
They had money, they had the time, they had the talent....

But they didnt and mostly because of internal structural problems in the
company
and bad leadership. Im not saying that its the average programmers fault
that works in MS that was the reason it sucks so much. Who was in charge of
this fiasco?????

MS blew it with vista.... it could have been fantastic! But its just
Crapista!

My experience, people that claim they have no issues with Vista use
their computer for little more than a decoration on their desk. People
that actually use a computer in a serious work environment have
reported many verified issues with Vista.
 
I back up your experience with mine and what you say is 100% correct!
They are using it either for a very limited number of things or using it as
decoration as you say. Other than that.. its a jungle out there and vista is
falling apart!

I don't know what those abbreviations stand for. We have some
custom software interfaces to medical devices developed for us
years ago. Under Vista, they continue to work fine.
