I recently put windows vista back on my computer, the first time I had windows vista on my computer it was incompatable with alot of my software, So I switched back to XP. This was a bad decision on my part, I just got done with a five page report for a college class on word perfect 10 and when I went to save it it froze my computer. On XP a week earlier I did not have a problem with this, so just as a warning windows Vista is not fixed. Dont upgrade until they do fix it. Dont pay more for a program that causes problems and does less!

I did upgrade to Knoppix, Windows just was trying to tell me that it was time for me to buy a new Laptop, but one of those Linux guys did install it for free in my machine, know I am using KDE desktop and it is amazing and even faster. I could not imagine how good interface is and something that really impress me was the so vast of number of application you have for free out there, I can say if you needed to pay for all what you get must be thousands of dollars.

Hey, why “upgrade” to Vista? I upgraded to Ubuntu from XP. Now I can run desktop effects with a new, fresh look – and I don’t even need to buy a new computer to use it! You can give it a try without install: http://www.ubuntu.com/

I write this from a fairly decent machine with XP2 home media center.
I have always owned MS machines, but everything I have read so far about Vista makes me think that my next machine will be (shudder) a portable Mac, sorry Bill.
