For me XP was an increasingly unreliable spiral of death, plagued with erratic instability and wild performance fluctuations. Once I installed Vista all the problems stopped and my PC now "just works". There was a slight learning curve and there have been a few minor issues but overall I find Vista to be a damn solid OS and generally quite ignorable, which is how things should be.
Now, I know I am an IT guy, have been for awhile now. I am not saying I know EVERYTHING there is to know about Windows, Linux, and networking either. I do try to learn as much as I can. I will also say XP is not perfect. BUT.....
Seriously, unreliable spiral of death? Erratic instability?
I really have to wonder What The Fuck people are doing to their systems to cause these types of issues. This is but one example of the sort of shit that I come across on a daily basis.
And believe me when I tell you that my employer has got to have some of the most retardedly inept computer users on the planet, and even their computers aren't that screwed up.
I can almost hear Jeff (DJ) and Jeff (JBroll) wincing at the stupidity on these forums I visit, sifting for some resemblance of information. Please guys; do yourself a favor; don't visit any computer forums. You'll thank me for your sanity!
The only reasonable computer forum I go to is.....on SS.org. On a musicians' site.
