March 1, 2009 5:18 pm at 5:18 pm #641430asdfghjklParticipantqwertyuiop: sorry i don’t know too much on vista!!!! once heard it’s complicated with emails!!!
March 1, 2009 5:27 pm at 5:27 pm #641431baal kishronParticipanti heard that if you are going to get a vista comp make sure you have at least 2 gb of ram because vista runs a lot of side programs that if you dont have a decent amount of memory it will slow things down significantly
March 1, 2009 5:40 pm at 5:40 pm #641432qwertyuiopMemberbaal kishron: i would probably get 3-4 gb.$
asdfghjkl: what do you mean??$
March 1, 2009 5:47 pm at 5:47 pm #641433asdfghjklParticipantqwertyuiop: with emails from others that don’t have vista, it gets complicated to get some emails from them!!! i think there’s another thread on vista!!!

March 1, 2009 6:01 pm at 6:01 pm #641435qwertyuiopMemberasdfghjkl: but the other posters gave a solution for it, so what would be the problem??$
March 1, 2009 6:20 pm at 6:20 pm #641436asdfghjklParticipantqwertyuiop: just sayin…………!!!!!
March 1, 2009 7:37 pm at 7:37 pm #641437qwertyuiopMemberasdfghjkl: ok, got you.$
March 1, 2009 8:51 pm at 8:51 pm #64143822OldGoldParticipantVista is clear to use. Everything is right in front of you. It’s basically the same as the others. Do they sell computers that aren’t vista. I just bought a laptop and the ones that i looked at (which was a lot) were only vista.
March 1, 2009 9:01 pm at 9:01 pm #641439qwertyuiopMember22OldGold: it’s very good??$ and yes, they do sell XP still.$
March 1, 2009 9:10 pm at 9:10 pm #64144022OldGoldParticipantqwertyuiop: Oh sorry I didn’t know.
March 1, 2009 9:17 pm at 9:17 pm #641441JewessMemberI switched from XP to Vista a couple of months ago and I don’t see much of a difference. It seems pretty easy so far.

I got a laptop with Windows Vista around a year or two ago, and miss my old laptop (which had XP) dearly. I find Vista to be much slower, but I do believe that they might have improved it since it first came out…
From what I’ve heard, on the whole people were much happier with XP than they are with Vista.

Cons: Microsoft
March 22, 2009 5:32 pm at 5:32 pm #641446CrashOverrideMemberFor running Vista, you should be running a dual-core processor, and at least 2GB of RAM.
However, Windows 7, which should hopefully be being released by the end of the year, will run a lot faster than Vista on the same system specifications
March 22, 2009 10:16 pm at 10:16 pm #641447Mrs. BeautifulMemberwhen buying a new laptop I was told to get XP over Vista, my comp guy told me that vistas flopped. Slower than XP.
March 23, 2009 9:34 pm at 9:34 pm #641448CrashOverrideMemberIt depends on what you want, and the specifications of the new laptop…
March 23, 2009 9:39 pm at 9:39 pm #641449squeakParticipantCons: Microsoft.
