Is Windows Vista really useless

Answer 1

yes, I have had vista for 9 months now and it is far worse than XP, with my old Dell computer running XP I could open the door to my office switch the computer on and check my mails, I could work all day without issues and at night shut down and go home. with Vista there is always something wrong, I keep losing my internet connection which looking through other forums seems to be normal for Vista. I also get a dialog box when I want to do anything such as view photographs from my own files which is annoying and timeconsuming, my printer keeps getting lost in Vista and other peripherals can't be detected. I am not a computer geek I am a business man, time is money, when these problems occur 3 or 4 times a day it puts me out of my stride and the 5 minutes it takes me to fix the problem is magnified by having to pick up where I left off, I don't think MS tested this system properly and have abused their monopoly position knowing we have to put up with it, I am considering a Mac even though I have never used one because the upset to my working life is costing me more than a new computer. I wish someone would start a class action against MS because it is not fit for purpose or of merchantable quality. read all the many forums and you will get the picture, vista is really useless. yes, I have had vista for 9 months now and it is far worse than XP, with my old Dell computer running XP I could open the door to my office switch the computer on and check my mails, I could work all day without issues and at night shut down and go home. with Vista there is always something wrong, I keep losing my internet connection which looking through other forums seems to be normal for Vista.
