Buying a new MS operating system in the first week of release? *sharp intake of breath* I wouldn't touch a new version of Windows in the first year, never mind the first week. Wait until the first Service Pack is brought out. |

Yes, the three dimensional Menu is a big step forward (though utilises a lot of Memory), & of course it's just nonsense to suggest that they copied Apple. Gates IS the man. |

Really? Reviews i have seen say XP does the same stuff as Vista just it's a little easier. Also it's recommended you buy a new computer before getting Vista as it won't run on anything more than 6 months old  |

Sometimes you have to suffer a little bit in your youth to motivate yourself to succeed in later life. Do you think if Bill Gates got laid in high school, do you think there'd be a Microsoft? Of course not.  |

Liked DOS actually, it does what you tell it to do, unlike Microsoft which tells you what you're going to do. |

I hope you bought it from the US, it can be nearly twice as expensive from the UK |

"Pirates have already cracked the security features of Vista which allows pirates to download Vista and a product key and to install it on their systems, only a few days after Vista went gold." http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Criticism_of_Windows_Vista |
