Hehe that's a fair point too.

As someone who runs an IT business, I see the Vista problems everyday.

Things like -

My software won't work
My programs don't work
There are no drivers for my printer
My computer's slow
It's annoying with all the prompts

And it's a devil to work with, it just won't do what needs to be done.

I'd rather use Linux than Vista, because most programs won't work on Linux either, but it's not memory hungry, annoying or unstable.

The only advantage I see with Vista are the memory hungry graphics and menus, it's all prettier - so what????

AND all the retailed pc's are coming out with Vista, Norton and no XP drivers.

I'm going to be very busy for quite a few years!

If anyone wants to remove Vista and get their p.c. working like it should, one can solve the driver problem by going to the manufacturer's website of each component and downloading the latest XP driver.

I did that on a HP laptop that HP said there were no XP drivers for, and it runs like a dream. E.G. No drivers avialable for this model laptop, so went to Realtek and downloaded the latest Realtek audio XP bundle
