Just installed windows vista

[Ironmako]

I have to say it looks pretty good so far.

I just built a geeked out computer to run the latest and greatest whatevers and thought I'd give it a shot.

Vista has a definate Mac feel to it...

The interface is beautiful...

Give yourself a day, don't bother using excel. You will want to shoot yourself the foot by the time vista is done with you.

ohh wait, i just read the "mac user" part.
Never mind. Mac is goofy just like vista. if you like mac, you will be at-home.

[Ironmako]

Well mac is goofy thats true. Its like being right handed and learning to write lefty...

That being said Mac's interface has always been more smooth and eye-candy-ish

I'll have to check this whole excel thing out...

You have to be the first person I have met that has had one remotely good thing to say about vista. I know people that have returned brand new laptops to purchase used ones because of the problems vista causes them.
I guess printers and other peripherial devices are not too keen on it either.

Well I so far the stuff I run has worked. Not that I have a vast list of things I do on a PC.

I know a huge criticism of vista has been lack of proper driver support...and MS usually releases buggy stuff and then spends the rest of the product's life cycle fixing it...

I have a dual boot setup running right now, with XP as my primary and vista as my secondary for precisely the reason you mention. I want to test it out before I commit fully...

Initial impression for me though has been positive...

I am pro-Microsoft. XP came out and worked perfectly so I figured Vista had to be fabulous right?

WRONG ASSHOLE!

Vista kept me up rebuilding my computer over and over again for 3 days. It would work for a while and then crash. I will shit on its grave.
