^ Yeh I agree CorsaSXI
But at the moment I am using XP. I cannot afford to pay for Vista :(

I GUESS they are both good operating systems but of course Vista is alot more modern with a few un-necessary features hehe

Though between the two, I prefer XP, I'd rather run a Pre-RC version of Windows 7 than either of them.

I'm a sucker for anything new. I like Vista rather than XP because it looks so nice. I do agree that it is a bit too big and takes too much RAM. If windows 7 is better, I'll be switching to that ASAP.

An on line friend of mine summed it up as follows :

I dislike Vista, Windows 7 is a lot faster but ....

Vista - A pig
Vista SP1 - Lipstick on a pig
Vista SP2 - More lipstick on a pig thats already covered in lipstick
Windows 7 - Vista with plastic surgery as they learned just lipstick simply cant mask a pig

Windows XP - 36-22-36

That was a great description. Made me laugh a bit. I wish they could just give Windows 7 out for making our lives miserable when they released Vista. Windows 7 seems to be able to use the resources a lot better than Vista. XP is still a decent OS but it lacks the nice visual interface.
