I should have expected a response such as this from you.. You who say just because you are having problems and some others are having problems you automatically assume that everyone is having these problems!! Your equipment is so called vista certified which means diddly squat and you know it!! Many many corporations were advised not to jump to xp when it first came out as it was a buggy op system as all are when first introduced!!.. If you deny that than once again you prove how feeble your argument really is.. I have on purpose many times stressed this machine trying to cause it to crash just so I could validate other arguments that it is a problem with vista.. It simply will not do it, then again it is not a store bought system that always has a weak point in it somewhere. As for the untrained or unaccomplished well I run 4 different machines here at my home, 1 vista business desktop, 1 vista home premium all in one desktop and 2 xp machines 1 laptop xp pro and 1 desktop xp home.. both xp machines are slow and buggy as they have had so many patches and service packs they are bogged down terribly also they are not as modern as the vista machines. Now unless you personally know all the people and what equipment they run that are currently having problems then you really do not have a winning argument towards the negative as the proof that you should be reading in the responses to your post. I speak from personal experience with the machines that my friends run as I either built them or had them built for them.. Each one is custom built with various processors, motherboards, graphics cards and hard drives that are known to work well together.. The software that they run is up to date and not something that was written in the dark ages for let's say win 98. They do not load there computers down with CRAP like mcafee or anything norton that are known to cause problems. They also maintain there systems with good housekeeping which also helps prevent problems. Now I was hoping to have or partake in a intelligent debate over this post but obviously you have chosen not to so this is where one says PLONK!! There's another one for the killfile!!

I have to agree with the positive on this as myself and all my friends and
contacts also have been running Vista since day one with no stumbles,
crashes or anything negative.. The only thing I have done to this system is
switch from 32 bit to 64 bit and knew way ahead that I would need to do a
clean install.. The majority of problems people have had is due to inferior
equipment or inferior mentality. Which category do you fall in as it is one
or the other as there is no other possibilities!!!

Total BS. Take a look around the industry. See how many people have
issue with Vista. See how many corporations refused to adopt Vista
after an in-depth review (Corporations that consistently upgraded from
one windows release to the next, sans Millennium, without exception).

As for my equipment, it's new and certified for Vista. That doesn't
make Vista any better, it just doesn't make it worse. The same goes
for those major corporation I mentioned.

As for mentality, I'm sure I beat you there - if only by having the
intelligence not to make erroneous assumptions about other people.
Likewise, many VERY talented people with serious Windows engineering
and support skills, people with list of certifications, people who did
robust testing, have advised their corporations/businesses not to
adopt Vista (but for some reason, you, untrained, uncertified,
unaccomplished, and sitting at your lone desktop, seem to know
better).
