I've been using XP now for 8-9 years now. I am using SP3 now.
I just bought a new Dell which only comes with Vista SP1.
I have an XP SP2 OEM CD from my old Dell that sits in the closet.
So I re-installed my new Dell as a dual-boot with XP and Vista.
Vista Aero Glass and the Rocket Strip are cool but other than that
vista drives me nuts.
Text seems sharper on XP so Vista bugs me when surfing the
internet with firefox 2.0.20. Not as easy to read. And Yes I turned
off "Cleartype". On or Off it's still not as sharp as XP.
Vista seems to ask me constantly if it's ok to execute programs
I start up. Just run things already.. Yes I'm sure I want to run
xyz!!!!
Vista seems harder to find settings than simplistic XP.
So what the hell makes Vista worth using over XP? I don't use
or need DirectX 10. I don't game at all besides MAME.
I read that Vista SP2 fixes bugs but is slower than SP1.
So help me understand why my Vista SP1 CD doesn't belong in the
trash... I am considering removing the dual-boot and just using XP SP3.
Not trying to piss anyone off, just trying to understand why Vista exists..
