Time to upgrade to Vista!!

dont! vista has alot more wierd prob.s...
comp runs slower.. wierd error messages, because some progs not fully compatible..

slows to a crawl after being on for too long - signs of memory leaks

black screen of death issues

time for linux? hehe

Vista OK lah.. Just have to make sure you don't power a 500> size machine with a 3 cells pack. I've not use Vista myself, but some people I know have been using it without any problem.. But that's just for now lah.. Until people manage to find more loop holes to exploit the OS..

Vista is super duper fast on my Quad CPU & 4GB ram

BTW, games look super duper great on Vista DirectX 10.
