On Vista

Hey, I saw your comment about Vista "seeming to be the better system" - perhaps, marginally. It also takes considerably more system resources without more than minor improvements. That's the biggest general problem with Vista.

More importantly, to me, is that the anti-piracy "features" in Vista are extremely intrusive. Considerable waste of computer processing time and memory, generally spent "spying" on you, in case you might pirate something. Personally, I find that unacceptable for an OS; I don't pay people to assume I'm guilty. This is not as well known a fact as you might think, so I wanted to point that out for you. The handful of minor upgrades in Vista aren't worth the waste of system resources and the indignity of it all, in my opinion.

I'll definitely agree with you there. I don't care for Vista at all myself. Still quite happy using XP on my gaming rig. The only real advantage to Vista is DX10 (for games that support it). I vastly prefer OS X for work (if it had better gaming support, I'd switch to it at home in a heartbeat). --dev_akm 17:24, 22 May 2009 (EDT)
