Another thread about Vista
I bought a new PC a couple of days ago OS Vista Premium........
Iv'e already fucked it up  it wont load windows ie explorer  So have had to download firefox instead...... Also if anyone else is thinking about getting Vista and keeping some of your equipment i.e. Printer, make sure it is vista compatible i have had to download new drivers..... My anti virus is not compatible so i have to pay for another one  And it only came with works and not office so i cant read any of my documents Poxy thing |

I swear the next machine that dies on me is being replaced with an Apple Mac.
I'm using a Compaq pc with says it's "Windows Vista Capable" but the speed I'm enjoying from the 2 Gigabytes of RAM and twin processors using XP at the moment, I reckon will disappear when XP users are "forced" to install RAM hungry Vista.

I've sat and thought about it.
I only use the following file fomats..... .psd .html .php .jpeg .gif .swf I do not use any Microsoft software apart from XP. So as long as I can run Adobe stuff (which was originally written for Mac) and I have a simple text editor. I can do exactly what I do now without a PC. The only problem I can see is the availability of fonts. How much is a Mac?

You need AT LEAST a 20 inch screen to do it any justice - although if you go into the shops you will fall in love with the 24'' screen - but they are 1,300!!! The 20'' is £999 - but you get what you pay for!! AND if you use flip4mac you can also switch over to windows in a second!!! But you won't want to when you use a MAC |

Well when i bought this i got it for £300 and that was just the tower, the mac would have been £677 and that was the cheapest one I saw. I seriously thought about it, but just couldn't justify paying that kind of money for what i actually want to use a computer for. |

Ok thanks
 Now I'm deducting the cost of Anti-Virus / Firewall software and subscriptions as Apple Macs don't get viruses.
