XP was released oct 2001, almost 2002
thats more like 6 years
Vista is far more bloated than anyone expected in all ways...
> You need to run Vista on the hardware that it was designed for.
HOGWASH!!!! TELL MICROSOFT THAT!
I must remind you the requirments to install vista according to MS?
Windows Vista minimum supported system requirements
Home Basic / Home Premium / Business / Ultimate
800 MHz processor and 512 MB of system memory
20 GB hard drive with at least 15 GB of available space
Support for Super VGA graphics
CD-ROM drive
YEAH RIGHT!!!!
Microsoft should have FORCED its developers to work on THAT machine! lol
Really you should get an RSS program and start reading what people are
saying from various tech sites...
everyone is making fun of vista, or insulting it... your insult vocabulary
grow by reading the news about vista..
