just think about what you are saying! Do you have any business sense? You don't sit back with one product, you develop the next product on deployment of the current one. Or you go out of business... Why Do you think nvidia and ati releases a new graphics cards?

Suggestion: climb back into your hole with prometheus, quit sharing your single brain cell and go back to sleep.

And Prometheus, the bs meter just went to 7 on the richter scale. If i actually had the energy to, i'd reply to what you said and shred your posts. What i will say is this, most laptops ship with at least 1 gig of ram. The better ones at least 2. What you and every other person forgets is that You get what you pay for. Cheap laptop, expect hassles. There is a reason hp laptops or typically over 10 grand.

And quit whining. God, how pathetic!

Edit: thats a little harsh, but i'm absolutely sick of this crap you xp fanboi's sprout.

Just a question: Who follows who's lead? Do hardware vendors set the bar and software (games) have to adapt or visa versa? Or do software vendors create their products and expect hardware vendors to create supportable hardware with the needed features.
Or do maybe, do they liaise and work together?

When someone starts an argument with "I used to like Windows" I hear it in the same tone as "I'm not racist, my best friend is black!".

LOL!!! So what happened to all that experience that you had when Vista sucked ... period? And as for Vista sucking being the reason that M$ is busy with Win 7 ...

I quote myself from another thread.

Keep in mind, these are pulled from 2001+ posts. Back when it was first released.

I hope my point is made.

Also, "Vista Ready" Does NOT mean it will run Aero. It means you can run Vista with the 'Basic' theme.

People who run Aero with 512MB of RAM, and feel the right to complain, need to be removed from the gene pool.
Run the basic theme and you'll see, it runs a lot faster.

justinufo, I have to agree with stuart. And 2 Months ago is not that much. especially considering its on that page. Sorry about insulting your intelligence but just in general seeing the rubbish people spout in this thread annoys the hell out of me.

DarkStar, Thank you. XP only became decent after SP2, didn't it?

And Besides, the world didn't end because XP would not run on a P1 socket 7 or 8 and infact a P2 isn't much better The good old days when AMD processors went in intel sockets

Well no OS is perfect.Even XP.Ive decided to give one more go(my 4th installation since i bought Vista last year).Otherwise its been running fine.And like i said in another thread.I find it more stable than XP.We have to move forward sometimes to next OS and if it means fully migrating to Vista then it wouldve happened eventually.Ive learnt to be more patient with it and give it time.Im not saying that its good or bad.

More stable THAN xp, not then.

Lol, i hardly ever use my XP installation. tend to use Vsta all the time. i'm not actually sure why i enjoy it more. it just feels better i guess.

Still need to try W7.

prime. XP SP1 was the stable version. Have been running it since it came out and only needed SP2 to satisfy Adobe. Same as now I am only installing SP3 because GTA4 needs it.

I am sorry, an Apple crash is not easier to deal with than an Win crash. When a mac stops responding, your choices are: HARD SHUT DOWN. On a Win machine ctrl-alt-del, kill offending process, resume.

The number of times ctrl alt delete does not work... You push it, you kill task, task hangs, Windows locks up and then it also requires the reset button.

Afaik, macs don't crash unless you install ms stuff on them (lol i'm joking of course but a friend had an ibook and it went 200 and something days with out a crash or reboot. )

And regarding sp1 i can't remember which sp xp needed to become useable, just know it was between 1 and 2. I think i put i a (?) after that post. But thanks.

fair enough dude. was not giving you grief over which sp, just trying to be informative.

Its cool. I am an information sponge. (as in i absorb information for some of you )

Macs dont crash because there isnt much software to interfere with it.
And the hardware is limited.
And no one cares about crashing a mac anyway
