Not trying to troll, genuine question, seriously considering 7 for next comp.
Win 7 isn't out yet so the choice has to be between what is currently available. Now if he doesn't want to "acquire" the OS and still has a valid XP license around then sticking with XP the couple months until 7 is released would make sense.Flaming_Maniac wrote:

It's a fair point, if I was building a new computer now, I'd get the RC and then 7 when it comes out. Which is actually what I'm doing anyway, just with my current computer.Flaming_Maniac wrote:

Something tells me running your main OS on a properly unreleased OS isn't too smart.ghettoperson wrote:

Vista is far from the ME of its day. The major difference is ME really sucked from start to finish and Vista just needed (and got ) some spit and polish. People hated ME cause it was an awful OS, People hate (most people I should say) Vista because they heard form someone it sucks, usually someone who only tried it soon after launch and probably hasn't touched a non xp machine in years if ever.steelie34 wrote:

Ah duh. Vista either 32 if you have 4 gigs or less, or 64 bits if you have more than that. All those xp geeks should gtfo
Why does the choice have to be between "what is currently available"? I use Win7 and everything works fine, couldn't say the same for Vista. Win7 in its current stage will work for 8 months for free! After that upgrade to full versionmax wrote:

That said, right now Vista x64 is just the best choice for most people with new (gaming) PCs.

Not really sure why anyone would get the 32 > 64 at this point. I have 4 gigs and I got 64 to leave to ability to upgrade. By getting 32 you're either forcing yourself to stay with 4gb or having to drop another hundo for 64 when you upgrade.RDMC wrote:

So you're basing your opinion on the fact Vista, aside from being techinically superior, is 'lame'??mafia996630 wrote:
