# XP fanboy - I'm scared by Vista

I specifically made sure the laptop we bought last year was on XP rather than Vista. It just seems to be (to me, a technical cro-magnon) all bells and whistles and nothing useful.

# I won't say what I was going to say

# Vista?
"Eye candy" if you ask me.
Nothing is where is should be!
I know XP was eye candy when it came out, buit it worked nicely too.

# vista is total wank
I gave it the benefit of the doubt for 2 days on a new laptop, then upgraded to XP

# CAN I GET A WORD IN EDGEWAYS TO SAY:
1) It's not as great as Microsoft would like you to believe it is.
2) It has loads of stuff changed, moved and renamed for no good reason
3) It has computability problems with my old hardware and software
4) ...but it is far superior for managing photos and music. Massively better.
