xp or vista

I have Windows XP on my desktop computer, and I have Windows Vista on my laptop. I enjoy both operating systems. I haven't had any problems with Vista and all my programs work on the laptop as well. I dont do much online other then mylot, chat, play pogo and do a bit of surfing so maybe that is why I dont mind Vista. What is it that you dont like about Vista?

I like xp better, from my experience, vista has too many problems. :P

Mt newest lappie, a Dell 1720 came with Vista, so it was forced on me. I would have waited a couple of yrs till they got the buts out otherwise.

Windows XP

i prefer freebsd if i get to choose any o/s.. but of the two choices you offer id say xp is better than vista.. it always takes microsoft a few years or more to work out kinks in their releases.. so maybe in 2010 vista will be better.. hah maybe :)

i think i still prefer to windows xp

I too prefer xp as it fulfils all of the requirements. Vista is more advance but I prefer the xp because I am used to work in window xp and I donst want to waste that all I learnt in prparation of window xp.

I too.

i used xp and its great

I just got Vista on a laptop and I love it. I don't understand all of the complaining. I like the window previews and all of the safeguards. There's an icon on the taskbar or desktop for all of my needs.

I prefer Windows XP because it works better on older computers and I can get a better fps on games.

XP is better for older computers that can't handle Vista or handle it slowly. It also gives me a bit better performance on games and I'm used to the interface.

i think that windows XP is better, because Microsoft made windows vista with too much security which slows down the computer, also there still is less programs that can work windows vista but i think that as time comes windows vista will be better and it will have more programs and stuff for it.

I like XP. It is secure and stable. I have multi-booted Vista and XP, the best performance is made by XP. The best thing in Vista is only look but XP has much better best features than it.

There are good parts and bad parts about both, but i do prefer xp. Vista isn't good for anyone who wants to play pc games on their pc, because alot of games don't support the format that vista uses. Vista is better for things like using the internet and updated features that xp doesn't have. Vista does use alot of pc memory because of the graphics and software it has installed on it. xp is better for people who want to play games that were out upto 6 months after vista was released. Its good for using bluetooth devices too, vista is very hard to use bluetooth devices for. Vista needs access codes for nearly all software like bluetooth devices and connecting the internet to the pc, but when its done its good. ~Joeys wife

Go for XP,because I see that vista is like a conspiracy as they're is no mayor change.

Nothing new and nothing surprising. It doesn't take big brains to figure out that Windows XP is still the best Operating System over Vista. It is more friendly, more sufficient and ease of use doing network setups through home and business. And I can run Windows XP with systems that have older Pentium 2, 3, 4 with RAM ranging from 128 through 1GB with no problems - where on the other hand with Windows Vista you need at least 2GB of RAM or more if you want a stable computer. Many people aren't ready for faster machines or super high speed computers that will cost them hundreds or thousands of dollars. 512MB DDR2 or 1GB DDR2 on Vista is still sluggish - and don't expect much running low end processors (1.6Ghz to 1.8Ghz) to run good on Vista either. Everywhere I go to do a repair or when I go different places throughout San Diego, the majority of people use XP over Vista. When I mention to them if they use Windows Vista they are like "What's that?" or "Are you kidding me?" You get the idea!

I know XP and have used it for many years now, it is stable and it suits my needs. I don't know vista, but, in a couple of years we will all be using it, I reckon'
