[QUOTE="infinite.loop, post: 138392, member: 10723"] [B]Vista[/B] = no go here for a "live system" My experience with my new workstation (core2duo E6600 + ATI X1950XT) [LIST] [*][B]drivers[/B] = extremely bad [*][B]applications[/B] = well we have the first "Vista proof" Antivirus applications now available. The rest is not that good working (until you work with full admin rights and UAC turned off again) :P [*]The support for PC Games is extremely bad if you do not turn off UAC and work as "real" admin [*][B]Aero UI[/B] = every task takes longer to accomplish [/LIST] Until now there is absolutely no reason to move to Vista. Simply because to use the new features of Vista, you need "Vista compatible" applications (and drivers). If you turn off all the new features (i.e. UAC) to be able to use your games and applications, then you do not need Vista. I am sure that after SP1 is released it will become much better (same happened with WinXP ;) ) If you get it along with your new PC -> okay But do not buy it yet ;) [/QUOTE]
