I use XP. I love it! :) I am very glad that you are happy with Vista. Because I have heard nothing but horrible things about it! So I am glad to hear that YOU are happy with it!

I am using Windows XP Professional now. I think in the following months or maybe several years, i will still use Win XP. Win XP is enough for me !

I'm currently using Vista Home version, and I've found that it has both pros and cons. What's good about Vista is that it has a very modern interface and functions, a helpful instruction on how to use each program and stuff like that. On the other hand, I hate when it takes forever to booth the computer. I always have to wait around 3-4 minutes. I just recently upgraded my RAM to 4GB, and it kinda helps my labtop to run faster. If you are going to use Vista, you should have at least 2GB of RAM.

In this time I use Windows XP, because it's fast than Vista, but i managed to install Vista when it's needed, perhaps in the coming three months. I'll stay again with my good old Windows !

In fact, Microsoft recommends 1 GHz processor, (512 MB of Ram and 20 GB Hard Drive) for the basic vista and (1 GB of Ram and 40 GB Hard drve) for Premium and others versions of Vista. With XP we only need 300 MHz processor, 128 MB of Ram and 1.5 GB of hard drive space. All this, for the cut edge and transparency colors and cutting edge of vista!!!

Although I'm using both of them, I prefer XP over Vista..XP is much lighter than Vista..It doesn't use up too much resources in your computer thereby not slowing computer performance..

XP!! Vista still has WAY Too many bugs!! Plus half the stuff I own will NOT work with Vista. So that means a new Printer plus the extra software I have... oh no no no.. No to vista!! Actually Windows is already making a new windows. Vista was a Huge flop.

Well with my current computer system right know im jsut satisfied using XP why? Cause vista eats up too much space and my computer cant handle it and it would just purform slow. But vista is good OS. Why? For me i just like one feature of vista where you can use youre USB device to perform as a patial RAM for the system.

I used Windows XP since the year 2002 and I'm also happy with it performances. I only experienced Vista in the end of 2007 and until now I still don't like it. Display wise, Vista is very attractive with it's perfect and some more for the version with AERO, it will surely help to create some eye catching show off. But, as most of the people agreed, the problem with Vista lied on the hardware/software support and the memory resource that it's used. Computer with extravagant specs like 4GB RAM,256MB video card look likes an average computer when running Vista.Can you imagined the specs as I said running on XP? How's the performance will be? Other than that, Microsoft already announced that they will release new Windows 7...to replace Vista,probably on next year. I will prefer Windows XP yet until I found the perfect replacement for it (at least for me)

I am satisfied with windows XP. I havn't installed vista in my computer but from the feedbacks i got from my friends and the news i read about it in net i didn't want to try it. Also i heard that programs need more system requirement to run if vista is installed so i didn't want to switch to vista as XP is way better.

i think windows xp sp2 is the best. compared to vista. microsoft had already perfected xp. vista had a lot of bugs. some of old programs and old hardware divices wont work with vista. but.. microsoft is trying to phase out xp. us users have no choice but to adapt to vista.. huhuhu..
