Windows Vista... It's Not That Bad


Okay I will admit I was just like everyone else scared to death to give up Windows XP. I mean, it was reliable. It had already been around all the bugs were worked out not to mention all the horror stories. I had read and heard about Windows Vista being a nightmare but about two months ago. When I ordered my new laptop I started using Windows Vista and I can personally say it's not that bad. I haven't had any crashes. I really don't have to worry about losing data, because I don't keep any information on my laptop. All of my files that are really important to me are in two 500 GB storage centers that I can access anywhere, because they are on my home networkbut overall Vista is pretty smooth. I like the way you can toggle between pages with the pages looking like a three-dimensional simulation. Like in that movie minority report, and as far as maintenance. Its maintenance free defrag your computer or cleaning out old files manually is something you don't have to worry about Vista does it automaticallyI will admit the only thing that got on my nerves while I first started using Vista there is a safety feature that keeps you from deleting files accidentally while Vista will ask you about three times what they pop up message. If you really want to do it that took a bit getting used tobut from reading the articles I can disable thatI think Microsoft made the mistake of releasing Vista one year too soon. I feel bad for those people who were the first in line to pick up one of these copies and not wait till the bugs were worked outI'm thinking about getting a desktop, one of those all-in-one deals. Also XPS and Vista will also be on that toPS I was a coffee shop and I ask to look over this woman's shoulder while she was on her Mac book I'm sorry. I simply don't understand the appeal of Macintosh operating system
