Re: No problems here
By that rationale why bother ever upgrading? Every few years, or even months, something new is going to come out so why ever upgrade? You had one problem with one tiny aspect of Vista. That makes the entire system flawed and not worthy of an upgrade? Nonsense. Developers had 6 years to perfect drivers and software for XP. It won't take them long to get it down for Vista, or Windows 7, or whatever is coming down the pipe. Vista runs just fine. It runs a ton better than XP did when it was released. Trust me. I beta tested both OSs and Vista is far superior at launch than XP was. The funny thing is that in 3-5 years, when the next OS comes out, the same people will be saying the same thing and bitching about the exact same issues..... Is Vista perfect, no, but neither is XP and at least Vista supports much more advanced features than XP ever will. |

One small aspect? Why bother having a network if you can't transfer files between machines? When I go on the road and shoot videos or take photos I store them on my laptop hard drive. When I get home I move them to my new (Vista) machine. This is something I do very frequently. One man's small aspect is another man's "mission critical".
Luckily for me, my transfer speeds have gotten much better. They still are nowhere near what they were between two XP machines over my 802.11G network.
