Vista Review

I’m wondering how many people out there (on average) have updated their Vista laptops and desktops to SP1 not that it’s been available quite awhile. I have to say – I haven’t updated my laptop yet at all, especially since I read that (despite the initial hype) machines aren’t running faster at all post-upgrade, they’re (mostly) in fact running slower!

This guy at TechIMO reports his system running squirrelly after the upgrade, so he backed it out with system restore.

Then again – it’s a double edged sword, since if I don’t upgrade in the near future my machine might be vulnerable to new exploits, the one recently announced that renders Windows Vista security useless.

It looks like I’m damned if I do and damned if I don’t, and I may have to make a choice this year. Have you upgraded your Vista yet? What have you experienced?

Microsoft is running an ad campaign called Mojave. They tell testers that they are testing the new version of Windows (after Vista) code named “Mojave”, and then they actually show them Vista instead. Then the users “all love it (yay!)” – and Microsoft is like “we pwned you – Vista rocks”!

Idiot Microsoft – Vista STILL SUCKS!
