Huh!? XP is klunky and wastes resources. Puppy Linux works better
for
most routine tasks.

Yes, but Vista takes the cake as the worst piece of crap to come out of
Richmond yet. I'm surprised noone's taken them to court yet for
selling a
clearly unfinished product as anything but a beta.

I work with Windows all day. That's why we have a Mac at home.

That's funny. I have three computers running on Vista utilizing them
playing
music, movies, word processing, document saving, and about every
application
you can use. No problems here just as long as you really know what
you are
doing. Maybe its not the software causing the problem but the user not
knowing how to properly operate the computer.


Or the owner not being able to afford a 900 terahertz 16-core processor
with 100 terabytes of memory.


What makes this interesting to me is that I paid 200 dollars for the
desktop computer brand new out of the box at Circuit City. Computer was
originally 409 dollars and discounted to 200. Worked great right out of
the box. I didn't have a bit of problem with that computer and its about
a year old. Next pieces I bought were two laptops one from last August
and the other this February. HP for both of them and spent 1500 for both
of them in total. Both with 1 GB of ram apiece. 160 GB drive on one and
250 GB on the other. AMD processor on both 2.0 Ghz plus speed. So
basically 700 bucks for one laptop and 800 for another. I've been seeing
desktops for maybe 500-700 which is pretty reasonable.


And these miracle babies all run Vista flawlessly?
