Anyway, there's a lot of bullshit out there about Vista such as Pescado's comments about Vista invalidating your XP CD key.
How's that bullshit? It's bad news about Vista. Bullshit is your Pollyanna "everything is fine" blather. How much are they paying you to spew these lies?
Paperbladder:
The part in there saying that they're invalidating the key was in all of the other versions of Windows. It's not confirmed either other than in that one story.
They're still doing shady stuff though like adding a DRM service that checks the license of a video 30 times a second, killing analog holes, and locking the kernel for no reason other than to attempt to make a monopoly. There's still no reason to upgrade to it though because there's no DX10 games and if you do upgrade you'll gimp OpenGL.
spookymuffin:
Are there really any problems(not including game compatibility) that Vista could cause if it's on a computer that isn't connected to the internet?
I'm thinking of installing Vista on my gaming PC, and leaving my internet PC with XP
J. M. Pescado:
It is uncertain that Microsoft would let you operate the computer like that. Sort of like their "Registration Procedures", which I refuse to follow. Just like gun registration, software registration is a tool of Nazis who plan to take your software away from you. It was a stinker of a plan when the Nazis came up with it, and it STILL STINKS.
spookymuffin:
Well I'm thinking of waiting a while until I can get my hands on a copy that doesn't need to be registered, or I find something that lets me bypass the registration
