So I've had Vista on my laptop for a while now.
Why do we need Windows 7, I like Vista more than I like XP. It's a good OS, and I think most people approached it with the idea that it would suck and made sure there would be a self fulfilling prophecy...
Might be because I'm the admin though, I mean, whenever I want to install something, it's an extra click... An extra click that can save my ass sometimes. It boots faster than my XP desktop ever did, and frankly, I love it.
(It's not like I don't know Windows either, I mean, I've had 95, 98, ME, 2000 and XP over the years... And Vista has replaced 2000 at the top position on my list... The people who compare Vista to ME never had ME for sure.)
