Domain Name Com's - Software : Microsoft Windows Vista Home Premium UPGRADE [DVD] [OLD VERSION]


  

Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Vista is not ready for upgrade from Xp or 2000!
You may only trust Vista if it comes with a brand new PC.It will run fine.
DO not try to clean install or upgrade on a branded computer (especially Sony or Toshiba). Stay out of it! You will have bugs all over.It is not as easy it looks.Buy a new PC if you really want Vista or buy a Mac and install Boot Camp to run Vista on it.Vista works on Mac better than PC's.



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - HORRIBLE DO NOT GET VISTA!!!
ABSOLUTELY THE WORST OPERATING SYSTEM EVER CREATED!!! DO NOT GET VISTA FOR ANYTHING!! IT IS FULL OF GLITCHES. DO NOT LISTEN TO THE MICROSOFT ADS!! Your computer WILL freeze, it WILL crash, and be 10 times slower! Vista also leaves your computer completely open to viruses and spyware.
The windows 95 was a better operating system. VISTA CONVINCED ME TO FINALLY GET A MAC, WHICH WAS BY FAR THE BEST COMPUTER BUYING DECISION I HAVE EVER MADE! The mac operating system is completely user friendly, fast, no crashes, and NO VIRUSES!!! It's just so better organized... and with no glitches to report yet. PLUS, IT'S READY TO USE RIGHT OUT OF THE BOX!!!
DO NOT GET VISTA, GET A MAC!!!




Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Vista, Moore and Homer Simpson
Sorry, Amazone will not take a negative 1 star for vista!


Vista, Moore and Homer Simpson

How do they tie together?
Gordon Moore, Chairman of Intel made a self fulfilling prophecy that every 18 months his engineers managed to pack twice as many transistors in same silicon area. And became partly responsible for filling up the landfills, changing India into major exporter of C++ speaking programmers, American suburbs into Springfields housing Simpson clone families, and of course turn Microsoft into Umbrella corporation and windows into T-virus that you can not run away from. If he had made wrong observation and said 12 months, we would be on turbo ride to doom. He could have said 24 months and our doom buggy would run at the speed of Windows Vista.

But what is wrong with windows Vista?
It is different. Changes are good; the cliché' goes.
Yes, it is different but for sake of being different. Smart people realize that being different for no good reason is no good. Richard Fynman invented a whole set of symbols he used in his mathematics, and realized that it was stupid. Being helpful and humble (one heck of a guy and smart enough to later bag Nobel for Physics) he promptly corrected his mistake and went back to using the good old symbols used by everyone from Newton to Ramanujan to Hawking. Microsoft, the all powerful god of our times does not need to be humble, smart. They could buy Nobel and all the heck of guys including me and you. Their armies of programmers had to be fed and kept busy, like the armies of Temur. Feed them, keep them fighting, they will land you the world. Keep them idle, they will destroy all. Leave these programmers, they will go invent something useful instead of day after day coding lines of useless changes.

What is different in Vista?
Menu's are in different places, icons are called different names and do different things and since darn Moore said 18 months to double density of transistors, they reasoned that the same CPU will run twice as fast so they could let vista eat twice as much computation power and so Johanny will need a new computer in 18 months so he could play Doom at the same speed without getting frustrated. Mom and dad will very willingly buy a new laptop with Centrino Duo double core processor (the 18 month rule is gagging to keep alive; need two processors) and old one goes to landfill, everyone is happy, parent happy to give out guilt money and food chain from Micorsoft down to the lowly computer tech happy to take it.
And yet, the real meat is still the same. It takes several clicks to get to Internet properties and there, the real tech stuff goes back to the old XP, a far cay from the earlier windows that was bad enough. In nutshell, as my boss would say; "it is a dressed up pig." Insides of vista are just as rotten but we were used to it, outsides are dressed up so much that we have to learn it again! It is a damn operating system; and anyone who understands, operation system is just a necessary evil. I may want to spend my time learning an application like Autocad or Photoshop, not the operating system. I would put it this way: If I want to build an aero plane, vista is like spending my time learning the psychology of my union worker rather then aerodynamics. Search function does not search, control panel icons (even under the "classical view") are moved, renamed and cryptic. The funny thing about Control panel in classical view is that if you did get it to do something the program pops up a window literally telling us: "Did it work? Wow! Well then"
Remember that good old add/remove programs icon? Look for it now. The networking icon opens windows where there are strange selection items that don't mean much which is fine because even if they did mean anything, you are just going to face meaningless windows popping up. Useless warnings bounce around, eating your CPU cycles, printers and other attachments don't work or you have to download drivers that don't download or if they do, they don't really work. But the all knowing Microsoft marketing has the answer. You can run vista in dual mode: vista and XP on the same machine. Of course you have to buy vista and XP for those law abiding zombies. If I had my choice, I would be in business of selling bikinis (Less for more) and vista (More for bad) With vista, they screw up and we pay for the old screw up and the new screw up.

Maybe I don't appreciate the millions poured in vista product definition. To keep programmers busy, they had to design a "new" operating system (WHY?) that is easy to use (read, designed for Simpson's. If you are not one, you will be one.) And so here is my connection; poor Moore made an innocent observation. The industry took it to heart and lived by it. So did Mark Goering of Simpson's who had an image of middle class American family and made a show so popular that the middle class American family rose to fill up that that mould. Vista, figuring that they had to write software that would do the same thing as its predecessor but at twice the CPU power brought us vista. They decided to use their armies of Tartars (oops, programmers) but having run out of creative juices and drunk on power they decided to make the vista that even Homer could use it. And so, slowly but steadily we wind down to Homerian stage of evolution.

If you have not yet figured out, my suggestion is, next time when the Moore's 18 month period has your computer in blues and you have to buy a new one, stick to bad XP and avoid the ugly vista. Unless you are a sadist who enjoys learning operating systems.








Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - needs some work
I got my Vista via the coupon program late last year.
I was reluctant to upgrade because of the bad reviews.
Lately my Dell E1705 is crashing to a blue screen a lot with
hardware errors, and Dell wants me to reinstall the XP. So I
figured why not upgrade to Vista and see what happens.
The upgrade install process didn't take long, about an hour or two,
and most programs came up working without needing reinstalls. And
the system is quite stable.
I have 6 PCs in the house, so I can experiment with one, it works fine
as a standalone PC, my kids got on the Vista, so far I haven't heard
any complaints from them about using it, all games seem to work, internet browsing is OK.
Benchmarks are lower in Vista than XP, I used to get 3600 3Dmark06 for my
7900GS, now 3400.
The problems I have are with home netwoking, copying files from Vista
to XP machines over home network crashes the XP machine, the Vista machine got an error but still functional. The files that got through
are all corrupted. I never had problems like that going from XP machines
to XP machines.
Vista takes a lot of time calculating how much time it will take to copy
files from PC to USB or the other way, it looks to me like it takes as much time to calculate than it takes to copy the whole thing in XP.
Vista uses more memory, I am upgrading my RAM to 2GB now that I installed
Vista.
I would recommend to run Vista with at least 2Gb Ram and a fast CPU,also a U3 stick for ready boost, turn
off User Account Control and minimize Windows Search items.
At some point we have to upgrade to use more RAM, until then, wait.
Update:I've used Vista for almost 2 months now. No crashes.
Fairly easy to use, my kids use it, never asked me any questions
on how to use it.
Installation takes an hour, no need to reinstall any programs.
All my programs work, even decade old programs.
Downside is XP is a really solid product, hard to see any improvement,
and it uses more RAM and other resources.
It's a less painful upgrade than previous Windows upgrade

Why does Apple fantards have to spam Microsoft board?
Go enjoy iphone with locked SIM card and sealed battery and last gen connection.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Easy, once you work with it
It took awhile to get used to Vista. It knocked several programs off the air - so to speak. But, eventually things all worked out and it works fine now.
