Windows Vista experience

As an IT professional, i can honestly say that not a single one of our clients have Vista. I would not recommend it to them. My partner has Vista on her laptop, but i have no problems troubleshooting it. In general terms i suspect our phones at work would ring more frequently if any of the clients used Vista. The only likelihood is the home users as Vista has no logical use for businesses, despite the variety of versions released.

I know many people have had problems after upgrading to Vista, but since I bought my laptop with Vista pre-installed I have no problem with it. I am not into gaming or downloading music or video, and my main internet usage is for searching, using interactive sites like myLot and uploading files. I like the security features and I feel safer using it than the older versions of Windows. I am now used to the look and feel of Vista. For my purposes it works just fine.

I won't recommend it because it won't let me install proven,safe programs. from the internet. Also, I can't open files from other people's storage devices. Vista stinks!!!

Well, while my experience Vista hasn't been bad overall, there have been slight annoyances. For instance, finding locations of certain functions in Vista was extremely unfamiliar--even more unfamiliar than when I started using Ubuntu. If you're using it in business, well, I wouldn't really recommend it. It also depends on the type of business your doing, obviously, but Windows XP and several Linux distros might do a better job than Vista. For personal use, Vista isn't so horrid.
