the only reason not to immediately purchase vista -- i of course recommend the ULTIMATE edition for the ULTIMATE upgrade -- is because you are a dirty stinking poor person, and you probably shouldn't be allowed to vote, much less install the FUTURE on your pc.

Sorry duder, even if I was considering upgrading my pc, (and I'm not, the next time I buy anything it will be a mac) I wouldn't get that OS.  Call me back when it's stable in 2 years, you shill.

I'll probably be getting that one and when I want to switch to a different mobo...just call into Microsoft and tell them my shit broke...so I need to install on a new mobo.

it's stable now, you nasty poor! our very own maf has ran the second release candidate -- the x64 version, even! -- for months without a hitch!

this is the FUTURE. you can either play in the past with the poors and their wiis or join the MEN OF COMPUTING on the first real significant OS upgrade in the marketplace since windows 2000. (apple's clumsy freebsd gui experiment doesn't count -- does os x even have a viable browser yet?)

The problem with vista is the drivers for the hardware. The hardware companies have to make new drivers to have some things work with Vista properly. And its really fucking picky about HDD's for some of the features. I've been reading up on the Readyboost which is an awesome new feature for computers. I'm just waiting for flash drives to become internal. Using a flash drive in place of psychical ram is an awesome idea.

I wont be upgrading till i can afford a new pc either desktop or laptop.

duuuuude! ie7 cribbed all the features from firefox, and added a) stability; b) more options; and c) a vastly better ui! now buy vista and celebrate technology -- or use be stuck with the browsing equivalent of the wii!

The only gripe I have with IE7 is that I can't tab over to "Google Search" in one keystroke (it takes two). Funnily enough...thats bout it :lol

It looks pleasing to the eye too, with Aero Glass

Creative was lame for most of the RC phase lol. If an award should go to a hardware manufacturer for driver support its ATi. Their drivers have not only worked, but have improved performance.

Funny, Firefox has been around a lot longer than IE7. IE7 is just a rip off of all the newer features in browsers like Firefox and Opera.

PS - "Dirty poors" will just be pirating your beloved OS, no worries.

IE7 is a ripoff of Firefox, the greatest browser ever. I will never stop using it.

XP for life. Vista is a ripoff. If you are a serious PC gamer, it has benefits. Otherwise it's not worth it.
