Unless you have a space age dual core 10grand computer I suggest that you throw the Vista CD in Bills face and say "Make it again." That man creates crap and crap only. The Vista Beta version doesn't even work on my friends brand new computer, he spent over $5000 AUD and is still upgrading. He installed it and it was so god *censored* slow it was ridiculous, if you want a cool looking graphical interface then get Linux or buy a friggin Mac. There's no point buying Vista, or even downloading it, it's rather ghey. It's just like that stupid 360 box, my friend (same one) bought one and egged me on to get one, I said I'll wait for the next best thing, he installed some sort of firmware on his and then had to do the whole updates with XBOX Live. Now he is unable to use his 360 for some reason along with 5% of other people who have the same CD/DVD drive and Microsoft are refusing to compensate him and are telling him there is nothing they can do about it, if that happened to myself, I'd buy a ticket to the U.S, knock on Bill's door and politely ask for a refund, and if not, the the politeness will turn into anger and the 360 would have an imprint of Bill's face on it. bah rambling//
The point is Vista is too buggy, too slow, and when it screws up, Microsoft won't do anything about it, just like XP, as if the error sending reports actually make it to anyone at MS, probably all goes to a hdd which is formatted every day. It just looks pretty, Vista that is, I'm not saying that it's ugly, it's just not Windows if you know what I mean. Buy a Mac or use Linux if you want your desktop to look cool, or get widgets for christ sake, don't waste your money on a bunch of pretty interfaces that will eat your ram like it's going out of fashion.
heh, quite suprising that I didn't add 'z0r' or 'izzle' anywhere. 1337$%&^$%.
