GET VISTA RUNNING RIGHT BEFORE YOU LAUNCH ANOTHER LOSER.

Hey Matt,
Are you going to keep on going? This is my favorite "You Tube" video! I hope to see you again out there again.

Well in my case, Vista is a piece of stable equipment. Anytime something happens to my laptop I did it not because of Vista. Let Microsoft do their thing, I am not affraid of what they have to offer..

A.L.S.- its not about being "afraid" of what microsoft has to offer. It's about being smarter with your choices. If you think micosoft is flawless in its creations, think again. Remember Vista came out on the market years ago and failed. But there were already consumers who were stuck with it and they would be the ones who would disagree with your statement about how cautious one has to be before jumping right into a program stamped with microsoft. Im not slamming microsoft, mind you. But I am saying that as with anything new, be prepared to have options in line to switch back to what worked best for you. As for me, XP is the winner.

thankfully i haven't had much problems with my windows vista, i think it's pretty cool. lol I'm still learning all the things i can do with vista. honestly i think vista is good for those people who are not geeks at computers, i myself don't mind when it ask me if i want to do something or not, we all make mistakes, and vista has helped me to not make so many. but as always there will be something new constantly so with that bring on windows 7, and after a year or two maybe i'll look into it, so far so good with vista for me....

Vista being a better operating system for those who are NOT computer geeks? Not so sure from my standpoint. I bought a new computer on the exact day the Vista operating system came out on the market. I didnt want vista- I liked my XP but you couldnt find it anymore after Vista made its appearance. Im not what one would refer to as a computer geek but I know enough to know you dont want to try a new operating system during their first year or so to give the program nerds some time to work out the bugs. And bugs there were. After about a year, I decided to turn my new vista back in time and installed XP on it. I'm glad I did. And by the way, I had so many viruses on my computer, that it went to show thier security features were worthless. Microsoft - I hope you can do better next time.
