So far my experience in Vista has been positive. Like all gamers who are now using Vista, I am consumed by the “PC performance” AKA “Vista Experience” points. When I tested my experience at 2GB of ram, I had a memory score of 5.4. I added 2GB more (IDENTICAL) memory to the machine for a total of 4GB, now my score is 5.3.

Current System Build:

• Asus P5W DH Deluxe
• 4GB Corsair 800 MHz Memory
• Intel Core 2 Duo E6600
• Raid 0 Seagate HD x2
• Seagate HD for backup
• Nvidia 7600GT (Riva Tuner, unlocked 16 pipelines)
• Vista Ultimate SP1

No idea why, but it’s very annoying…

I was somewhat disappointed to read this article posted on CNN. I understand how people and users get used to one program, but i think people need to give up a good thing for the benefit of new tech. Take for example, the coming analog signal conversion happening in the US for TV. The government, while late, is taking measures to free up more spectrum for other technologies. The same goes here. If everyone is going to rely on XP for the rest of time, then how can Microsoft and other vendors continue to grow and expand their own horizons. From the start, Vista has gotten a bad wrap, and rightly so. Do you honestly thing XP was solid pre-sp1? No WAY was it remotely close to stable, that’s why so many companies were still reliant on Win 2000.

I think people will eventually adopt Vista. In my opinion, Microsoft needs to market Vista better to regain user perception on how this operating system runs. What do you think? I also believe the marketing department at Microsoft needs to come up with fresh ideas fast!

I saw this notebook first hand and I have to admit it’s a great notebook. It’s light and best of all (sorry mac lovers) it runs Windows. Yes, it’s true, I am no MacFanBoy. Direct Link to Site.
