Re: Windows Vista

Yeah they get sued for everything in the states.
To avoid this, I suggest to microsoft to name it's new Operating system something like:
Microsoft Windows 1n3jh4989c09nn29fnsioi30

I dont think anyone has used that name yet.
People would probably refer to it as "the thing". But I dont think that's bad.

Re: Windows Vista

Hopefully vista's release is going to be a success , I just hope Microsoft really addresses the bugs/flaws which are present in it before releasing it . XP was a disaster when it was first released so I guess ms should learn from previous mistakes.

Re: Windows Vista

well i think you ppl should wait for the new intel platform...
i think vista was designed to run on them...
(eh, marketing conspiracies  not strategies  )

I am just wondering what are the minimum system requirements for VISTA
can someone plz post them 
don't u hate how the MSR are going up and up and up.. so u don't have a penny left to upgrade

Maybe u did something wrong with the installation so it is running that slow.. lool
hey! joking... hundreds tried vista and came out  with the same comments 
so do u still find VISTA amazing , i bet they have more graphic designers  than programmers working on the projects

And Here is a suggestion to u pissed off ppl... if u just choose another OS, then Microsoft will start hiring programmers cuz they realise that they can't continue like that, it will be kinda pressure on them to improve quality
don't just use the pirated copies and think "3am titr2owon"... that is so untrue...
wheik,oops that was a long post.. sorry guys
