Re: windows vista screen shots

new OS?

when it is coming out?

Re: windows vista screen shots

Yep... this release is a full featured release.
Better than a beta, but not ready for RC status... basicaly a Pre-RC1.
Also, you're gonna need one kick-ass piece of hardware to run this to it's full potential.
Built-in video with shared memoery ain't gonna cut it anymore.
It will run, but no cool visual effects.

I actually read it's more ideal for business users than home PC's, but the home PC version will have some cool features too. It looks cool, and if the whole computer dosen't have to restart when it crashes, only windows, that's awsome.

From what I've heard, the OS isn't gonna be available for purchase, you'll have to buy a whole new PC with vista already installed. Not sure how true this is, but I've heard this countless times. If this is true, it definitely will be a Mac clone indeed. Remember, how you had to buy a mac PC to get the Mac OS and all its compatible hardware to enjoy the features and use of the Mac.

From what I understand from talking to a friend of mine last night is that they have all the windows media center edition stuff build right into the operating system. For you Xbox360 users out there, this allows you to broadcast HD from your PC to your Plasma/LCD that you are operating your 360 on. Movies that you create or download don't need to be written to Divx DVD's or DVD's in general. Just cue them up.

Yeah... its a Visual GUI. There are going to be things that look alike. BTW, Steve Jobs called, he wants his turtleneck back. j/k

Re: windows vista screen shots

I could care less about the visual stuff... MS redesigned the OS from the kernal up.
Yea... it's OS Xish looking... but that's not why I would be using it.
I've been a beta tester for this for the last 3 years and it is a drastic improvement over XP.

That's good, because XP blows big hairy moose slonge.

Re: windows vista screen shots

The strange thing, I've never had an XP based system crash, on either of my computers.

I get worried when I don't see an error message on mine's. I don't know what it is, this is a week or two after I reformat my drive too and it still goes nuts

Re: windows vista screen shots

I've never had XP "crash" on me either. Sure, I've had my fair share of issues, but not one BSOD... ever.
But to add to that statement, I always keep it up to date and I'm a security nut and I don't surf for porn or randomly download and install shit either. But that's just me.

Re: windows vista screen shots

Oh...ok. Well I don't download and install crap, but I think the other thing might have something to do with it. Even that's getting boring now too though
