windows vista kicks ass!

[marcjacob]

my boyfy is on the microsoft developer network, and so he got a free licensed adavance copy of vista, it looks great.

i can see some stuff that make life easier for our surfers. the ie 7 for example has a zoom facility so if someone makes crappy small thumbs, you can zoom in and make the bigger. also it has a realtime currency converter so surfers from outside the usa may feel more comfortable using the cards in us$ sites, knowing what it will cost them. lots of little things ive seen so far that im liking alot.

alas it wont work on my laptop though

It wont work on your laptop? Why?

[marcjacob]

it will but not well, i have about 512 meg memory and thats the minimum the reccomend.

Not to come-off sounding like an h8'er, but..
*cough*
..512MB of memory is not enough to run an operating system ?
What kinda crap did they bloat it with this time?

So, they made a version of Firefox, but called it InternetExplorer 7.
Many of the "new features" have been available for Firefox, as an extension, for a long time, and many of us have been using them, for a long time.
Old "features" such as currency converters and zoom.

Again, not to hate, but from what I've seen, it's still not enough!

I'll just wait till I truly NEED to update, and when that time does arrive it will not be to one of M$'s bloated OSes.
