Vista is good. Alot of people talk trash but I enjoy the features, but then the computer I built to go along with this OS is real highspeed-lowdrag (AMD 2.31 GHZ phenom quadcore, 4 GB DDR2 1066HZ RAM, 2x NVDIA 8800GT in SLI configuration, all on one of the worlds best mother boards the ASUS crosshair II formula.)
I needed the 64 bit version to read all of the system memory that I have, since 32 bit will only read 3GB total, including what you have on your video cards. Buying this version ... Read More

Vista x64 is a necessity if you want to use more than 3.5GB (or so) of RAM (2GB per application). It's rock solid and has better driver support now (1-1/2yrs after introduction) than when I bought it, but even then, it ran flawlessly on my MacBook Pro and Mac Pro. My Mac Pro has 6GB of RAM, and Vista x64 sees all of it. This is a plus for people who use Photoshop and other high-intensity applications. To tell the truth, I'm not really sure why Microsoft didn't make Vista 64-bit only, since all processors ... Read More

Vista is now the Windows standard, and rightly so. It comes with many features to let the user interact more comfortably and personally than with previous versions of Windows. Service pack one is out now and many of the errors that ruined earlier versions have been corrected. The only one "problem" I have come across is that the 64 bit version is a complete system hog. I have to 2GB of RAM and idle Vista alone uses 38% of that. In addition, there are a few programs out there that do not work with 64 bit ... Read More

I was quite disappointed with this product as it is poorly supported by device manufacturers.
Old hardware you might as well throw away if you purchase this.
The Hardware to support this is just now getting to the market with drivers being released only now.
Using this for an HTPC is an odd combo as the desktop is not very nice on a tv but Media center is outstanding on a tv. It makes you wonder if the desktop is going away eventually.
If you lie DIY projects this is a big ... Read More
