After cruising these forums it was interesting to not the number people who had gone back to XP.
So I thought of a simple question - If you had the choice again would you go Vista???
And if not would you reconsider it again say 1 year in the future???
Me I've run Beta 2, RC1, Pre RC2 & RC2 and I like the eye candy (my laptop is pretty grunty) 2gig 667 ram, 2.16 CD CPU, 256meg Nvidia 7900 card, 160gig HDD. But had issues with 7900 video card support, noticed games run about 10% slower and found limited anti virus support. My beloved Zonealarm would not run, (I know you either love it or hate it)
So for me I liked Vista, for the eye candy really but I'll wait until I either update my CPU (C2D 2.33gig CPU) for the 64 bit support, or wait until santa rose is released with the mobile 8800 video card.
