It is just bloated with a lot of useless crap that slows things down. Think how fast XP would run on your computer if you think Vista runs good. When the PC Mag editors say they'll stay with XP, it makes you sit up and take notice.

I guess everyone has a different experience with both OS's. Personally I hated XP. I miss when I had ME. That was an awesome OS.

Fear is the path to the dark side... fear leads to anger... anger leads to hate... hate leads to suffering... suffering leads to the Macintosh.

which explains Nex's outlook on life.

Like i say everyone had their own preference. Although when i had ME it was just for basic browsing. There was no technical stuff going on with that computer.

I agree with you; maybe we are in a transition period and old ppl would find hard to adapt to new ways... But explain to me, why in H*ll they moved: Windows Key+U+U!?!?! No reason!

I will agree that Vista has needless stuff but for some it is useful. I am not sure if those things can be removed.
