Only the most whipped script kiddies would rage against Vista by simply using another Microsoft product. If you don’t like their ****, stop using it. Have fun with your dated nublet OS full of security holes wider than your mother’s bum.

Yeah, because obviously I don’t write my own stuff… Log in to see images!

Also, Vista is the DRM OS. Which one do you think advanced users would prefer? The one that holds your hand and blocks out all “naughty dirty” piracy, or the one that lets you open it up, break it apart, rearrange it, and put it back together?

Yeah, that’s what I thought. Buy a sticker or GTFO.

By the way, I don’t think anyone’s gonna pay more than a dollar. 2BP max.

If you think I was saying Vista is any better than XP you’re very special. Windows is windows. The one that lets you open it up, break it apart, rearrange it, and put it back together? Yeah, you must be referring to Linux, BSD, Solaris, or perhaps even ReactOS.

WRONG: “Designed for Ubuntu”

You know there are other distributions out there, right?

FalconFour Posted:

why the **** would you trust someone else to write the OS that holds and processes all your personal information (for one thing)?

FalconFour Posted:

Download a bunch of **** other people wrote and install it

That’s how a real haxx0r does it… but… wate…

Oh – and if you want Office, search TPB (titles only) for “Microsoft Office 2003 Lite” and look at the uploader’s name. Log in to see images!

Hope you enjoyed that Office pack though…

As a person who uses both XP and vista, i strongly disagree with almost everything here.

I can’t believe you have the gall to bash linux.

Also whatever happened to the XP bashing when it first came out? It was worse than vista at launch IMO. Compare both my original no service pack XP distro AND my sp1 distro to a vista day 1 distro. The vista will work WAYYYY better with less bugs and weird ****ups.

Vista is a hog, yes. But in high performance computer it’s pretty, sleek, and runs just as well as XP does. UAC is bad and is the first thing to get turned off, granted. But when games run at a constant 60+fps in vista, switching back to XP to get more fps is pointless.

I keep XP on my laptop because the laptop is a piece of ****. It came with vista but because the laptop’s hardware is awful, vista ran awful. When I migrated back, XP seemed alien and confusing and of poor quality relative to the sleek effects-ful interface.

I guess the point of this post is to say that reverting back to XP is a bad move considering computers are always evolving and improving. Re: XP ****ty at launch, now it’s up to SP3 and you’re in love with it. Give Vista some time, or get a new computer.

Hm. Funny that I missed this post for so long.

Vista is NOT the same as XP’s launch. Sure, more people have finally had their arms bent into accepting Vistaids, but the fact remains that most computer literate people are sticking with XP until Microsoft can get it right. You can throw all sorts of conspiracy theories and “well they said that with XP too!” at it, but you’re not going to change the basic fact that it JUST PLAIN ****ING SUCKS.

Here’s the deal. XP was a jump from the 9x kernel to the NT kernel. EVERYTHING broke, and for a good reason, and a good payoff. XP was more stable, more secure, self-repairing, you name it. It was a major leap in innovation. It improved the Win2K base, and turned it into a home operating system. It was also an entirely different architecture, and it broke a lot of things.

Now, Vista? Nothing new. NOTHING NEW AT ALL. DirectX 10. That is all. They broke a lot of **** for no reason. Not only for nothing – but for DRM, corporate greed. This is the first OS that so blatantly had DRM hanging out there. It’s the first OS to have no real improvements. Quite frankly it’s absolutely appalling to see people just “accepting” Vista – not embracing it, nobody saying “come on, why aren’t you using vista, it’s GREAT!” – but just “accepting” it, and yet not even wanting to hear about XP, or going around telling people they’re stupid for using XP.

For me, Vista isn’t slow, despite its disgustingly slimy ****ing-away of system resources and disk space. It’s a hit on performance; it does everything slower than XP, but it’s not “slow”. It is, however, buggy, unstable (yes, even with SP1), and unreliable. My biggest beef with Vista is the dumbing-down crap. IT TAKES EXTRA CLICKS TO GET ANYTHING DONE. You can no longer put connection status icons in your system tray, so in order to get status on a network connection, what do you have to do? Fifteen extra clicks (including closing the unnecessary new windows Explorer opens for each of the links you have to click) to get to the damn status window. Extra clicks to get to the system properties control panel. The entire “winsxs” folder trainwreck. The unnecessary programs you can’t get rid of. Things breaking that Windows doesn’t have an up-front facility by which to un-break like XP does.

As I believe I’ve mentioned before in this thread, I’ve suffered through a combined total of at least 4 months of living with Vista on my main computer. I’ve hopped on the bandwagon for every new Windows version to date (including ME), and thought each one was great – 95 to 98, 98 to 2000, 2000 to ME, ME to XP. Between XP and Vistaids is the first time I have actually been appalled at a Microsoft product – and even further appalled at the people that just blindly and mindlessly accept the **** that’s shoved under their nose. Why is it that people just ignorantly say “oh, it’s a Microsoft product, we have to use it! it’s great!”? Is there even a single good thing people can say about Vista that I can’t disprove?

Aaaaaanyway… the point of my coming back here to post is a curious fact. I’ve now sold 4 stickers from eBay – all 4 sales coming _after_ the ad here expired – and 2 of which are international shipments, one to Canada and one to Taiwan! Quite surprised I haven’t sold more, but aye, it’s good enough. Log in to see images!

edit: I do have a new computer; I took Vistaids off it.
