Re: Windows OS poll 2008

Windows Vista SP1 RC only.

 

XP only!

 

I run Vista for everything from work to play and love it.

 

Windows 98SE, Windows 2000 SP4 and Windows XP SP2.

 

U have started a thread on this over here now,

so just in case, let's all keep any comments on that, over there.

BTW, XP SP2 for me. No changes forthcoming .

XP only here.

Machine mainly used for gaming and Vista aint for that !!

 

One machine one operating system = XP Pro SP2

 

Vista 64 on my main system and XP on my second computer.

 

Whoops. I answered the other poll first.

Anyways my computers currently have Windows XP Pro SP2.

 

My primary PC is Win98. Test boxes include 98FE, 98SE, WinME, and Win2000SP4.

Home is Vista Ultimate, XP Professional, and Kubuntu 7.10

 

Vista on my main machine, XP Pro on the others.

 

XP SP2 on both laptops

^Ale

 

XP Pro SP2, until Microsoft stop supporting it.

 

XP Home SP2 here I used to have windows 98/98SE on my old computer, I heard that Microsoft was disconntinuing support on windows 98 so I put in a seagate HD and XP Home SP2. So to recap 2 computers both windows XP Home SP2

 

XP only. Vista sucks

 

Took Vista off after a week and put XP Pro on my laptop.(just didn`t like it) Desktop will keep XP Pro till it`s obsolete.

 

Vista doesn't suck . Come on , Brian!

 

Gotta agree. Just built a new machine and running Vista Home Premium (about 1 week). I'm impressed so far with Vista and not experiencing the problems most people have complained about.

Waiting the 11 months helped because all of the necessary drivers have been updated in the interim.

 

same here

again same here,
I had one driver problem with an old capture card that didn't work properly on XP anyway. Much smoother transition than from 98 to XP, for me at least.

 

It sucks. It's a ripoff of another OS, it runs much slower than XP, it has compatibility issues, and last but not least: audio in Vista is fubar.

 

Hello!

Windows XP SP2 only. I have tried Vista on my girlfriends laptop...it is not for me...yet anyway

 

XP SP2 home until I get another machine. I sorta want to skip over Vista in favor of the next MS OS.

 

Vista on my laptop, and XP Pro SP2 on my desktop. I have to use vista for day to day tasks and gaming though, because its my laptop that goes to uni with me - the desktop stays at home.

Frankly, I love Vista - I have had not one single issue with it. All the issues I had were due to the Acer CrapWare that was pre-installed when I received it. With that removed, it runs fast and smooth, even for games!

Granted it is not as fast as XP (yet) but it is sure to improve with time. Nvidia are releasing new drivers pretty much every week on their Beta page - and each one is faster than the last.
