Why the fuck would you want to install Vista?

If you're going to run Windows, at least run something that works half the time.

Yes, and actually they run it quite fast.

Though I'm not sure why you'd ever want to run Vista over OS X. psyduck;

Microsoft sucks.


Windows Mobile, Microsoft Office, MS-internet-thingies are pretty good.

Don't hate a company just because you had a shitty system that couldn't run their OS properly.

THERE IT IS AGAIN. BASSIR IS A HUGE FAGGOT.

Also, Vista sucks.  He should install XP.  



Finally, Bassir is one of the most retarded individuals there is.    Once some one says something he comes up with the witty reply of "You're an idiot".   His complete idiocy becomes more apparent as each day goes by.

Why? If it runs fine for him on his nice little Macbook Pro, then why not? Vista is great with the right system, and the Macbook Pro is perfect. Don't hate Vista just because it didn't run properly on that 1980's Compaq you got there.

God, you're less funny than Lawlz, Kaz, Tomboh, me, and SBKT combined.


o lol i can say 1980s compaq so i no a lot about computers. brb asking jmv stupid questions on a daily basis


It might have been funny if I was alive for most of the 80's and owned a computer from then.

JESUS FUCKING CHRIST, IT'S NOT SUPPOSED TO BE FUNNY IT'S A GOD DAMN EXPRESSION

I said it because it sounds like you tried to install Vista on a 20-year-old PC. If you want to truly experience Vista, install it on your Macbook Pro.

Yeah... I'll take NeoOffice over Office any day. No lock ups, works great, and entirely free.

Vista may suck, but XP is just hideous and never has been and never will be reliable. Sometimes, I wonder if the pain of knowing I have a 40 gig XP partition on my baby is worth the glory of Bioshock.

or just spare the suffering and not use it at all

Just try Office 2008 on the Mac when it releases.

Now, the real question is how many games run on Vista and how many run on XP.

XP would do much better running games.


If you're playing games, why the fuck would you care what the GUI of the OS looks like? The game is taking up the whole screen.

lol wut a joek'

NeoOffice handles your Docx shit and all that and it has a smooth interface and perfect keyboard commands that work perfectly like and with the rest of OS X (whoodda thunk option+delete forces ms office to freeze and unable to quit when other os x apps use that combo to delete entire words psyduck;) and it's completely free and developed (or ported, rather) by Mac users... not MS employees just in it for an extra wad of cash.

so yeah im sticking with neooffice until something better just may somehow come into existence for the same price as neooffice which is of course $0

Do you care how your room looks if you only sleep on your bed?

I have to navigate and deal with the shit in order to get the game installed and running.

Okay, James. The reason why I called you an idiot in the first place was not over if it ran well with games. It's going off topic.

You said Vista didn't work "half the time".
