Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - XP was finally becoming solid, so its upgrade time from Micro$oft
Alas many service packs later and bugs ironed out, Microsoft moves on to another money-maker as Windows XP was finally becoming a very reliable operating system. Vista does have many nice new features, especially designed for the net administrator wannabe or average Joe who wants to try to setup a mini network in his basement. I am by no means an expert on the subject, as I am the type of person who knows computers just enough to be dangerous. That said, I do have some thoughts on this operating ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Best OS from Microsoft Yet
Vista is leaps and bounds over XP. From its increased security, faster start-up times and faster intall times.

I have been dealing with it since Beta 1 and have had zero issues. My machine is used for everything from gaming to development to multi-media. Vista performs as well as, or in some cases better than XP.

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - awesome when it works but makes me throw things when it crashes
I installed it on two machines. One of them it runs perfectly on but the other one gives me the blue screen of death and crashes at least once a day. I was blown away by the features and beauty that is vista ultimate, just hope the next service pack fixes my problems :)
