Vista in my opinion should not even require 1GB to run it but that's dam lazy microsoft for ya instead of trying to make an os better they just slap a new theme on there and don't bother adjusting it to run better, they could probably sell a lot more vista cds if they spent the time to actually try and make it use less ram.

PS. No many how many times I'm told and by how many people I am told it I refuse put the blame on the computer itself, I blame Vista.


So are you saying that I should be able to run vista on a system that ran windows 3.1? Technology changes and in order to have more advanced feature such as DX 10 and stronger security, it is going to require more resources. Quit your bitching.

I guess most of you people haven't read the complaints from people that say that vista has destoryed (more or less) there hardware because of the HD protection.. Rendering there soundcard and video cards useless because it doesn't have the same HD codec that vista REQUIRES. Vista requires you to use a certain codec and if your sound card or video card doesn't have this.. You cant use HD even though your computer has every thing 'HD Ready'

Can you Vista supports give me 3 things that you just can't live without that Vista gives you?

As to times change, you should upgrade your PC. This is bollocks. When XP came out most computers where a P4 and had 512MB Ram (Which was quite good in them days) Yet I installed XP with 256MB on a P2 400Mhz that my youngest sister uses and it runs perfectly for what she needs it for. Web searching, MSN etc.. However you need 2GB run the same applications is absolutely disgusting.

The only thing you have with Vista thats even half decent is DX10 and that at the moment is being ported for XP..

I can get all the eye candy on my XP machine and only use 512MB ram and thats including XP.





The HDCP (High Definition Content Protection) is not Microsofts doing. They were required to put it into vista because of the MPAA, it is easily defeated with a program such as AnyDVD HD. I'm so fucking tired of you people bitching about vista. I work at Best Buy and it happens everyday.

Customer: "I don't want that Windows Veesta it sucks!"
Me: "Do you have any particular reason why you hate Vista?"
Customer: "Uh, no, I've just heard it sucks."
Me: "Well actually Windows Vista is the most stable and secure release of windows ever, and now that service pack one is out it performs even better. Also, all the new machines that are out pack twice the power of an older XP machine for exactly the same price if not cheaper."
Customer: "No way!, Ok show me what you have."

Your friends regard you as a tech savy person. If you keep filling their heads with beligerant lies then you do nothing but make their computer shopping experience more of a headache than it already is.

P.S.:I have vista running perfectly on a P4 2.8GHz 1GB of RAM machine.
