Vista Ultimate SP2 - Any good ? - Ankh Warrior - 07-14-2015

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.

Basically, if you were a fan of XP you're going to hate Vista. Personally I love it! Sure it's a slow system and is very resource hungry, but it taught me far more about an OS than XP ever could. I would go as far as to say I prefer it over Win 7 (but that could be because Win 7 is unfinished and will remain so).

It's very much a Marmite system, you either love it, or hate it. (most don't like it)

I am not a great lover of Vista, but it is what it is, many user still use Vista and will continue to do so.

So should i install it ?

And one more question : Is Home Premium enough for home users ?

I never use vista but like you said install it on virtualbox or vmware

and make up your own mind

Windows vista home premium is pretty nice i think, its got the aero option which makes it look pretty ,its setup for multimedia, its pretty decent when it comes to speed and like timster said its a resource hog though. I like vista though ps idk if im late on the post but i thought id throw my 2 cents in anyways
