I installed Windows Vista on my computer last night. I had a few issues that took me a few hours to fix due to some bad software that I was using. My anti-virus software didn't work under Vista and also wouldn't uninstall under Vista. I spent a long time trying to figure out how to manually uninstall a program by deleting entries in the registry. Messing with the registry wasn't the best thing, but it was either that or have no virus protection on my computer.

Anyways, there really is a big difference in Vista vs. XP. Programs load up a lot faster than usual, and processor management seems to be handled a lot better. I'm gonna keep trying it out for a few days and hopefully it'll keep growing on me. One of the nicest things about Vista is the look of it. Windows and icons look a lot smoother and crisper, and the whole thing just has this nice feel to it.

Of course, it's not completely out of the ordinary for people to call Vista a copy of Apple's OSX. A lot of the features of OSX are very similar, and the whole feel of fluidity and stability seems borrowed directly from the Mac. It's not to say that it makes Vista a bad piece of software, only that you have to give credit where credit is due.
