Will you upgrade to vista ? Are you useing win2000 or winXP ? Is it enough for you ?
And when do you plan to upgrade to vista or use other os like mac or linux ?

no my computer too old to run vista

No. I just got a new computer. No need for another so soon.

I won't upgrade to VISTA if my computer is enough for my work . It's too expensive to me . My computer is old , if I upgrade to VISTA , I must upgrade my hardware first , but it will spend a lot of money .

Not unless I have to. Vista offers nothing I want and lots of thing I don't.

Vista has a huge price tag, and it separates the budget and the high end significantly, unlike XP Pro and Home.. Well, unless there is a true reason that there is the possibility of getting a virus is close to 0.8%, well I'll consider upgrading. Have to wait till some genius hacks Vista... Hahahaz...

Probably not.. I'm happy with how my computer is like now.. haha

I don't want to upgrade to win vista happy as things are now don't want to lose the power of my comp to windows

Same here X-P

No I don't think it'll make a difference compared to XP

I have no intention of upgrading to Vista anytime soon. XP is more than adequate OS for my current computer. I may be forced to upgrade to Vista down the road when a software I want requires Vista as an OS. That's about it. I see no merit for me at the moment.

On top of all that even though my computer is pretty fast, I'll probably need to upgrade my hardware to run Vista. I like to get 5 years out of a computer, not two.

Heh i had Windows Vista,i didn't like it much and i went back to Windows Xp.

I might upgrade to Vista but I'll watch for any compatibility issues that might crop up (Microsoft doesn't exactly have the best record for making things that work first time around).

It depends of the results that shows with first users. I always see the behavior of a OS before I decide why I need to use it too.

The safest thing to do is to wait for SP1 until you upgrade. First releases of Microsoft OSes are usually more trouble than they are worth, I only ever used 98se, XP SP1/2, ect and I saved myself a lot of trouble. I've used first release OSes and I even tried (and promptly uninstalled) Windows ME, nothing but trouble.

Never!

Vista is the last monolith-type Windows. His successor, codename Singularity is more module-based and plug-in-able. Customization of such system is a lot easier.
The benchmarks of Singularity give us a great hope, that M$ will develop an efficient Operating System!

But, most likely they will add a whole bunch of effects forcing the users to buy 16-core processors :)

For the moment i will wait. I am using Windows Xp SP2. I am waiting for Sp1 for Vista. The first release is just -you can say i am paranoic :) - not secure enough

Let me just start of by saying.... hahahahahahahahHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA(...)

It's only XP with a new skin and some fixed bugs.

Maybe you're wrong...
The shell of Vista will NOT be explorer.exe: this is a very BIG difference.

yeah ...i'll upgrade ...later :)

Why?
I still prefer (almost) known security breaches over new, improved ones... and I don't want to put money in a video card only to run an operating system.

it depends.....
if u like those "fancy" GUI...... than go 4 vista....
and be warned......
there's still a lot of program that vista cannot support.....
and u need at least 1GB RAM (it'll be very lag running vista below 512mb or so) to run vista..........
