I like the Aero Interface very much. I've never had a single crash with Vista, and it runs great on my big machines, fast and smooth. And talking others through problems on the phone with Vista is orders of magnitude easier than with XP, at least in my experience.<BR/><BR/>Now, I do run the Ultimate package on very high end machines, and that makes a huge difference over Basic on a low end machine. No doubt you have to have the hardware to support Vista - but this is no different than <I>any</I> other operating system. I'd like to see you run System X on a one of those old Mac Jr boxes (I always think of the Banana Jr from <I>Bloom County</I>, damn I miss Berkly Breathed). <BR/><BR/>I make fun of Vista sure, because it's Microsoft. Always go for the cheap laugh, that's me, but in reality I like Vista a lot and wouldn't go back to XP if you paid me.Jim Wrighthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11259550121437562338noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8243351006478134285.post-48316307355498881012009-01-28T12:19:00.000-06:002009-01-28T12:19:00.000-06:00Dr. Phil has a good point.
