Re: Very Long read on windows vista

^ that would be interesting

i wish the EU would leave microsoft alone.

Welcome Screen Compliants, if read that right its saying that becuase some companies where not included in the commerical deal screen that is included in the "out of the box tour" there are complaining and want the EU to file anti trusts suits against microsoft again. And companies that make computers are wanting to change that screen so they can put there own manufactures screen.

Re: Very Long read on windows vista

I mostly skimmed the tech specs in the first post, and didn't particularly read every post thereafter. The only part I liked was the unloading of the desktop when playing games. It seriously seems to me like they're trying too hard to make an ultra-shiny toy. Play four games at once? Open 100+ windows? Requirements that will stretch even some gamers' wallets?

Oh well, guess I better go sign up for a DSL, NetZero and AOL connection so that I can make the most of it. Ohhhhh, and with AOL, I'll have the increased security of letting them diddle my computer to "fix" things! Pucker up Vista, 'cause Daddy's on his way.
