I could never understand all the Vista FUD. I can understand that debacle with the underpowered laptops and the vista sticker or driver problems in the beginning but going past that it was fine. Before I got my current Mac I was running Vista on a Pentium D with 4GB of ram and it never felt slow. (i was trying to save money by not replacing it until it died but I eventually said to hell with it and bought a new computer)

- michaelcampbell 15y agoIt wasn't FUD for me. I bought a computer for my wife, with no special whiz-bangs on it; she does quickbooks, and IE, and that's about it. It had OEM Vista on it. It was the least stable windows box I've ever had to manage, and that's been a few. It wasn't particularly quick, but that wasn't a huge issue for me since it was a bare bones box, and I didn't expect it to be, but keeping it going for a whole week was difficult.
