I just saw a picture of Windows Vista, it looks like Billy stole all of his ideas from Apple, any way do you think it would work well (as good as WinXP) on my Pentium 4 2.66Ghz?
Would you suggest I install the beta version?
Anyone know when the final is coming out?

thanks

Should run fine with your system. The beta is for MSDN subscribers only. And your second post should of been edited into the first post.
 
It will run fine, you really only have to worry if your running a machine under 1Ghz and dont have a dedicated video card.

What's MSDN?

By the way have you seen pics? they've completely copied Apple Mac os X 10.4 Tiger, they've got widgets put in (only their not called widgets) and and all the buttons are aqua style.
PC is a copy of Mac from the beginning...

I have found a link to download it of the web, but am not sure if it will be legal, if someone can confirm if it is or not i will post it up (if it's legal¸ which i doubt)

except that there will actually be programs that will run on Vista.... There is a hell of a lot more to an OS then the visual style. Who cares if it has an object bar and "aqua" icons.
 
chances are it is illegal since you have to pay like hundreds thousands to be a member of MSDN

my school is part of it and i can get alot of free ms programs free for single user.
 
well, sure, microsoft might have got the idea of widgets from apple, but apple stole the idea from konfabulator, who stole the idea from desktopx
 
Apple..? Who cares...
I think releasing of Windows Vista will affect the sales of Apple computers more than what Windows XP did.
One thing I don't understand, lot of people here will complain about Microsoft, but then they are using Microsoft Windows in their computers.. Just don’t understand this......
I think Microsoft is doing a great Job. I love Windows XP and Looking Forward for Windows Vista....:)..
And it is just my opinion.. I’m not expecting people to agree with me…

The same happened with the tabbing in web browsers, it started off from Opera, then Mozilla Firefox took it, then in went to Safari 2, and now coming to Internet Explorer 7

Can't wait so long, I'll get the beta, are there many priblems with it? does it crash/freeze often?

Windows Vista is coming Holiday 2006.. So it should be in Stores by September or October of 2006...

Don't get Beta,, its not worth it.. You'll end up formating it anyway..Looks are good but its missing very important features that makes Windows reliable and stable. AFTER ALL ITS a BETA... I would wait for the Retail Version...:cool:
