I'm glad they put the Apple Logo on the menu bar back to the far left again.

Well, I've never been a big fan of resource-intensive user interfaces. While I think XP's Luna interface looks nice, I've tended to disable it to save a little memory and speed. And although Vista's UI looks nice, I'm sure I would do the same thing with Vista. For me, that's just not a "gotta have it" feature.

that is very true, better has a completely different def. for diff. ppl with diff needs. however, vista does have alot of extra stuff, mainly in the usr interface. you may not notice because you
a)don't have a computer that is pwrful enough to take advantage of these effects
or
b)havn't compaired them side by side
i have compaired them side by side on a computer that can handle both with xp running inside vitual machine on vista and vista's ui is considerably smoother. i cant really explain it.

The definition of "better" may differ between people. I used Windows Vista briefly, and what I saw was very little significant new features over XP, yet it requires more RAM & hard drive space and a faster CPU and video card. That's not what I would call "better". Vista has a pretty new user interface, which doesn't much matter to me; it also has behind-the-scenes changes that I wonder were really necessary. And your computer can't be much more powerful if the OS uses much of that power.

why not? computers always need to keep getting better and more powerfull. that is how progress is made.

I don't think we should have to get used to increasing hardware requirements as much as we've had to do with Windows. If Microsoft hadn't pushed the envelope as much and kept Windows relatively lightweight, imagine how fast and smoothly it would run on today's computers.

yeah, by the time vista came out a complete remodeling of or making a new OS would be necessary. if they had done it over time computer co. and users would get used to the increased demand on hardware and differences in the ui. also, for what they do xp seems more efficiant in terms of hardware requirements for smooth operation and what they do using that hardware. |
