I just got it on my laptop and I love it. There is onyl one thing I would change about it and I am sure there has to be a setting somewhere. Have you had a hard time changing over to the new operating system?

I like it for the most part too. I have it only on my laptop and have Windows XP on my desktop. What is the one thing that you would change about it?

Whenever I have something updated it ends up restarting the computer. I see there is a setting to hold it off but I wish I could set it to install when I decide t turn off the computer, not their set time. Do you know how to change that?

There should be a way to change that. MY pc isn't even getting updates, so I need to find out how to turn that on. If I find out to turn the auto restart off-- I'll let you know :)

If you go into system maintenance under the control panel, and then choose windows update you can change the settings in there. In the change settings menu, choose that YOU will install the updates that way you can install them before you shut down the pc-- and it wont restart in the middle of whatever you are doing.

I haven't tried it yet, but I hope to get a laptop soon and I know it will on there. I've heard positive things about it, so I can't wait to try Windows Vista.

I believe vista will be better as updates filter in. As windows xp had trouble until ap1 I think vista will to. Personally I tried xp and found it to be a blotted memory hog for my usage. I do repeat for what I do but it may be a valuable upgrade for some one. Then again I am a have Linux user too so I could have some biased.

I've seen the new Vista but still i prefer Windows XP it's really the most user friendly system i ever met.

Yes,I think you are right.Most user of Vista must spent some time on it if he want to use it as XP. A friend of mine bought a SONY notebook with Windows Vista.It's really a bad thing for him. Let me tell you the detail,SONY VGN-SZ4222B type can't change Operation System.Because SONY didn't give customer the Drive Disk. If you unload the Vital ,you can't set up other Operastion system.

I think Windows Vista beautiful but never installed it on my computer. I am thinking of replacing the computer and I will buy one with Windows Vista.
