Server 2003 was a good stable OS and apart from the lack of rounded

corners it could be made just as usable as a desktop as XP. No movie

maker, and the default IE was so restricted it had to be unlocked for

browsing normally (Which says a lot about IE really) but aside from that

and turning off unwanted services there were no real differences. Oh,

and the "Search" function worked...

Well you better take others' word for it then, it sucks beyond all sense

and reason and can only be improved by a tortuous route through registry

changes and major settings changes. In it's default state it couldn't

find itself in it's own folder...

I suspect it is something that was requested by hardware vendors, they

shell out for less real RAM and YOU shell out to buy a bloody Ram stick.

Well it is a completely unnecessary encumbrance when the system could

have been designed not to do that, but wait they don't want you running

side by side comparisons because guess what, you'd think "I just bought

this new OS and the old one is actually better". You would be able to

make a real comparison, same hardware same everything, but then you

would miss the fact that the only reason you perceive Vista as being

faster is because you just bought faster hardware :)

No the themes are basically crap, the colors were poorly chosen

especially for highlighting. To hell with functionality when we can be

"Fashionable"

In real world tests speech to text is truly crap. Although it works in

more things than XP that just means more things it gets wrong. It takes

20 minutes to type an email, using TTS it takes 20 minutes to dictate it

15 times until you get it close and then another 20 to scroll back,

proof read it twice and correct the errors that aren't so noticeable

such as "Two" instead of "to" and the like. Certainly needs more work.

You haven't used Thunderbird have you. ALL the Vista mail clients they

had released (Until I simply gave up and installed Thunderbird) ran like

a three legged rhinoceros with gout. Killing OE was a serious error of

judgment, especially when the replacement was written by people who'd

obviously never actually used a newsreader and probably have yahoo.com

or AOL email addresses.

Fast compared to what? Are you sure you are using Vista and weren't sold

a pirate copy of XP? Is the CD Label handwritten by any chance?

If it is faster then there was something wrong with what you had before,

not uncommon for a clean install to appear much faster.

No it isn't. Adding "Yahoo" and AOL shortcuts isn't "Configurable"

What's the point when after all that you end up with a system that can

I don't know why I bothered really either, but YOUR statements here have

been exactly what you accused the other poster of saying, ie "My

personal anecdotal opinion is...

 

We're all very delighted I'm sure that you have no issues, which seems

in part to due to the fact that you "Conveniently" do not use those

functions which exhibit the major issues that impact most users.

 

In order to fulfill the "Promises" made during early development (Or

weren't you watching back then) and to fulfill the promises made in

advertising and dare I say "Hype" there are some serious issues that MS

need to address promptly, very promptly.

 

Vista is at best a very small improvement over XP, IF you have the right

hardware, something you said yourself above. As an upgrade OS for MOST

people it is a retrograde step, which is a pity because the

compatibility of XP is by contrast legendary. I have installed XP for

test purposes on machines I can't even get any sort of Linux GUI to run

on. At the same time I have stuff that won't run on Vista or runs very

poorly yet is fine on XP.

 

XP had problems when it first arrived, SP2 appeared to me to be almost a

complete rewrite, are we waiting for MS to rewrite Vista when they have

spent 5 years hyping it up? All that time Linux has been improving. I'm

a bit surprised that Sun are not doing more too, although I think they

place too much emphasis on Java (and probably drink too much of it too),

when instead some real innovation is necessary.

 

A word you will find often used is disappointing...

The competition may appear to be far behind but appearances can be

deceptive, so instead of crowing about what IS perhaps a little thought

should be given to what "May" be in the future. eh?

I actually like Vista but practically had to build it from

scratch and some 10gb of source files, still a bit rough.

 

I agree that Vista is unfinished...LongHorn beta's from

almost 4 years ago were much more polished and except for

one single memory leak they would have made better rtm's.

 

WinXP 'sp2' actually was almost a rewrite and did contain

a lot of Vista items/security. MS really tried that time.

 

I left the door open.

for Vista Updates.

Now my cat is gone.

good responses...

Hi again silly,

 

"Just FYI?"

"Just FYI?"

"Just FYI?"

"Just FYI?"

 

I wonder why I see that useless phrase in every line you write.

Why do you do that?

It is compulsive?

Are you jalous and looking for a way to get a syndrome named after YOU?

 

And stop topposting please.

You are clearly completely clueless when it comes to usenet.

If you feel adventerous, you could try to max your attentionspan to your

utter limit and read this:

http://www.caliburn.nl/topposting.html

 

It boils down to this old summary:

 

Answer: It destroys the order of the conversation.

Question: Why is that?

Answer: Topposting!

Question: What is the most annoying thing on usenet?

 

And one last thing: Why don't you try to add some content to the

conversations in here for a change? Like actually helping somebody or

asking a question that makes sense?

 

Bye bye.

I didn't notice that you're using NT 6.0. I made a mistake. Will you

forgive me?

 

That said, T-Bird is Open Source. After all the bluster, lies and

insults that you've hurled at Open Source, one could say that you're a

bloody hypocrite. How come you're not using the groovy Windows Mail,

Frankie? It T-Bird better than Windows Mail?

More unbelievable stupidity from the newsgroup moron Frank. It is

BECAUSE many of us CAN read a newsgroup header we know the idiot Frank

posts under multiple names.

 

ROTFLMAO!

Apparently, on top of not being able to reade a header you don't know

the difference between an os and a news reader.

 

How come you're not using the groovy Windows Mail,

 

I've never used OE nor WM and have no intentions of doing so.

You're really one confused, sad person.

> Frankie? It T-Bird better than Windows Mail?

 

How would I know? I'm not using either.

Sorry, never, ever done that.

You're drunk again right?

You're getting your stupid act down really good!

RC1 won't update any more, and "I Eat Vista" can't afford the proper OS

until he gets his birthday money - it's a good one this year, as he reaches

his teen years! Trouble is, he's got to wait for his Christmas money too if

he wants to get "Home Basic".

You're using an Open Source news reader. I guess you've conveniently

forgotten all your "open sores" references yet you use Open Source

yourself. This makes you a hypocrite.
