Vista is a peice of %^$#@!!!!
For me and my hardware, it's been sweet. The problem for me has been that, since mepis has used the ubuntu kernel, it's also bound, it seems, programs and not having to worry if some .deb program I install will break my system, debian just looks better than mepis, and that's saying a lot since mepis looks good.

Who's springing for Vista?
I checked to make sure none of my hardware drivers where in beta or conflict with Vista features. 2. I deleted the Hibernate.sys file, I tried to run the System root command for hibernating as an Administrator 5. I checked to make sure that the “Multimedia” Settings the Power Options would allow the computer to

"98, XP, Vista, Vienna+" - I need your Help!
I typically upgrade my system, about once a year, usually around late Jan early Feb. I figure this next time, will be with Vista and hopefully DX10 video card, if available and reasonable at that time. Upon upgrading my hardware earlier this year, to my current system, I never reinstalled FS9. Now, that I have FSX,

Windows 64-bit is awful.
Rob wrote: I was just checking which of my hardware will be compatible with vista, and some of my hardware will be, but one of my newer pieces isn't, which is very poor. It may be supported under Linux using sane, if so, you could run a copy of Linux in a VM and continue to use it that way.

Exactly why do I need Vista again?
The problem is it's a 64bit OS designed for 64bit hardware...but then most of the programs I run are all 32bit and so is my hardware, so until I upgrade my set the stupid bitch up to run 32bit proggies RELIABLY...yeah, then and ONLY then will I upgrade...but I suspect by the time that all happens Vista will be

Are macs PC's or not?
I'd not wait for Vista. I'd keep whatchagot and SKIP vista. I tried RC2. Doesn't support much of my hardware and never will. There's lots of adequately performing hardware and software out there that will never run Vista. The good news is it will obsolete much hardware and I'll be able to buy it cheap.;-) Office

Upgrade to Vista Ultimate 64 or 32?
I was forced to upgrade to XP a couple years ago when 98 wouldn't run on my new hardware. It was frustrating that 98 couldn't handle more than 512MB of RAM The experience did not improve my opinion of the quality of Microsoft's products. And, back to the subject of the thread, I will not be buying Vista if I

Windows vista will not let me use my second graphics card.
All my hardware is compatible. I suspect you would see more problems and complaints. No, because, unlike Windows, Ubuntu will tell you what hardware won't work. or suffer any problem, on Windows and Vista is running fine on my seven month old laptop.

Fix for undefined "__error" and discussion of shared object
No joy - it only works on 64bit Linux, and I cannot run 64bit on my hardware. Looked at the ATI website to get a linux driver for my graphics card. I'll see whether I can get the graphics driver onto Ubuntu, but it looks like it will take a bit of fiddling, so I'll try it this evening. Unfortunately the lack of

Vista and slow transfers over the network
In other words, "compile once, run anywhere". The binary compatability from FreeBSD 3.x to FreeBSD 235.x is a problem for the XANDF processor during the install. I *really* look forward to the day when I can buy an XANDF Motif library, and use it on all my hardware, regardless of the CPU type. 8-0.

install XP Pro over Vista
I keep hoping the developers of Linux in its various main incarnations will solve these problems, but they never seem to. They always have excuses as to why it isn't their fault, which I am tired of reading. I don't give a damn whose fault it is, I want Linux to work with my hardware. Hardware support has increased

Scanning with Linux
I took the trouble to make sure that my hardware would work with Vista before installing it, rather than trusting to luck. And I know several others who have had I certainly don't claim that everybody's present computer will run Vista at all, let alone well. But being "pretty risky" has nothing to do with it.

EW 64 Bit speed? Is EW written for 64 bit multicore cpu?
I could run Windos 3.11 on this PC, but it wouldn't take full advantage of my hardware, so to use the expensive HW, I need a later version of Windos. Now Vista is being released, and within the next 6 months, eaven I will be forced to abbandon ME, and learn to live with XP, and maybe eaven get SP2 installed :o/

Gaming and Windows (XP vs. Vista (32/64)???
I upgraded my hardware in 2002, because my AMD 450K2 and Intel Celeron 333 MHz could not run Windows XP adequately. My cost effective solution with a 1.7 GHz It will run Vista well enough, I expect (if I ever buy it) People need to understand they need to spend more money. Vista will cost some but it is very

Excel 2007 is a Joke
The os should support the hardware and the apps, not the other way around. You admit that you can not use Vista to the fullest, because you are missing driver support and patches for your applications, if they will ever be patched, and you wont be forced to buy upgraded versions of the same apps. Now, admittedly my

Planning on buying Vista?
64 bit versions of software (when you can find them) run faster or do more than the same 32 bit program. I don't know if there are more instructions or All of my software is 32-bit.

After working for a few minutes (installed AVG and Skype) Vista volume again corrupt at start up! Do you think my hardware is the problem? Run it. If you still have errors you should run the other option. You may have a disk failing, though Vista is pretty good about warning if that is detected.
