That's microsoft propaganda, simple and pure.On vista they were playing quake and had 4 movies playing at the same time.
When Windows Vista comes along, will you switch to it?

Linux for work, win2k for games. All the reasons to switch to Vista are artificially created by microsoft. And they're digging their own grave here. Games are the single most important reason I did not yet dump windows altogether. But instead of making windows a top-notch gaming platform, microsoft pushes forward their XBox and makes windows to consume even more resources. Great business plan.

i use linux for servers but i use windows for a majoritty. my school still has computers which use windows 2000 (district sucks). We log on from the library via a winterm box
But,i tried vista and it is a killer. i would just stick with the stable old(xp) because they have the features which are *gonig to improve* in the new versions.

We use Win2K at work. I am just finishing the build of for XP, takes ages to remove all the rubbish that you don't users to see. So many prompts to change configurations and to obtain 3rd party support, without active directory its a mind field. No doubt Vista will be even worst with more of the frills and pop bubbles with suggestions you just dont want the users to entertain. Not a corporate OS at all. Put all this to one side the will most likley be countless vulnerabilities and problems to be corrected for some time to come and lets hope we dont have any more updates the size and confusion of XP SP2 to contend with on Vista.
