Vista Bashers Beware

I love Vista.
There I said it. I'm out of the closet.
Vista rocks.
I'm coming out now because I'm sick of how some people feel that just because I have Vista I must be a complete retard. Now while I do admit Vista has its flaws, there is no need to go about destroying it before its even had a chance to get going. Yes Its heavy on power, Yes its heavy on Ram, Yes its not as fast as XP but so what! Given enough backing, enough chance, it could be great. Greater even than the almighty XP.

Don't get me wrong, i think XP was/is great! Its stable, reliable and a good standard to work of. But that's just it. Its the minimum standard for most programs now. which means its stunting the development of future breakthroughs. Say for example with laptops. the standard pre Vista was 512MB or 1GB. Anyone with more was using it for gaming. Now with Vista, the standard is 2GB, you must have a fast processor, and a good audio, video and graphics card. Simply put, Vista is raising the Bar for manufacturers, putting them under pressure to offer more for a lower price!

Its only been 15 months since Vista's release. That may seem like a long time to some but to be fair with the lack of confidence in it, no wonder it hasn't been developed further. For god sake, XP SP3 was also being developed. I feel that XP must be discontinued if Vista is to stand a chance of developing into a viable, useful and stable OS.

Oh and anyone who says that they're changing to Apple, Don't take the piss, we all know you don't mean it!
