After my old laptop died a couple of weeks ago (luckily a brain transplant was possible) I had to get a new laptop, alas with Vista. There are a few features I like, and some I am getting used to, but the machine is no faster than my decrepid old machine was with a fraction of the RAM etc. There are a lot of anoying things, settings which won't stay put and more. And as for IE - crap, crap, crap. If Firefox hadn't become bloatwear, I would install it again without hesitation, but if I get really fed up with IE I might just do that anyway. I am sooo tempted to get XP installed. Any idea if one can go back on a new machine? I looked at the MS website for XP purchase, but was just sent around in circles. |
