You know… I never had the chance to play with Windows Vista until I purchased my new PC. Over the past 2 years I have heard everyone and their mom say that Windows Vista sucks…
Now I’m trying to figure out why it sucks… can someone enlighten me? I love it, to be honest.
I would love to find out what I might not be seeing though?
Anyone have any strange stories about it? Please, let me know.

Well, I do understand THAT part of it all
I thought people were saying it was buggy, which I haven’t seen…so far.
As far as Viruses, Spyware, etc — I do worry about that. I use Avast and…I forgot the name of the software I use for Spyware, and I’m too lazy to check it out. But, regardless, I do worry about that stuff, still yet.
I was VERY close to purchasing an iMac, but it was a few hundred out of my budget, at the time.
But, I will be getting that 24″ iMac when I get another chance…that’s for damn sure.

I am not a big MS fan - but Vista is perfectly fine 99% of the time (I don’t fancy paying twice the price for a Mac!)

Hey Jordan,
I hear ya about the price! It’s definitely very pricey, which is why I didn’t buy the iMac when I had the chance. I actually had the money - but I couldn’t justify spending that type of money at the time…
…and trust me, I TRIED!
I am having absolutely NO issues with Vista so far. I still like the new interface, that’s for sure.

Having said that… It has been giving me some grief recently by hanging once it goes into sleep mode, requiring a power cycle to get it back (I wouldn’t mind if it booted quicker..)

You know… this DID happen to me earlier last week. It hasn’t happened since - but it WAS annoying.
I’ve noticed a few little quirks lately, such as Firefox not playing flash… well, some files won’t play more than a few seconds (stop at 2) - and then some companies files (stompernet) actually DOES play - but without sound.
I’m not sure if this is a Firefox issue or a Windows issue. I’m suspecting FF since I can play flash in IE.
