    Jane, I would try to get it with XP Instead, as I have read, vista is the worst operating system in the world!

    Vista

    :cry: unfortunately I've heard that vista is one of the worst new operating systems for various reasons such as, it's security is invasive and it requires at least 2 gb of ram to run so im not getting it till the next version comes out

    Microsoft should had waited and r&d on its flaws before releasing it to the public, it just creates a bad image for itself. now the whole world is saying that vista is bad.

    I heard gamers should stay away from Vista, but I didn't get the details. It was on some news report and I only caught the tail end.

    i heard a different thing though. vista would be a better experience for gamers. it has directx10 which is only available in vista. and it makes the graphics really nice

    I'd give it a year and a half, but Vista probably runs .exe extensions also so it doesn't matter, just wait till a cracked version comes out that makes it so Microsoft can't monitor you, or if your just after directx10, look somewhere for a ripped copy :p
