Busy evening backing up data and all that. I never thought that this day would come, but soon, I’ll be making the switch from Windows XP to Windows Vista for my main rig, for various reasons. That said, I doubt I’ll completely abandon her, so who knows, she could end up being on a separate partition. In the mean time let us all welcome our overlord.

Vista-tan Ultimate

Now that’s what I call ultimate. And you thought XP-tan consumed a lot of RAM. :cool:

Vista-tan Basic

Despite being a watered-down version of Ultimate, Basic’s still superior if you know what I mean. :cool:

Oh ho, why not have two partitions? :cool:

However, not everyone shares the same sentiment as I regarding switching OSes and as shown in this analysis from the past 5 days, most of you guys are still loyal to good old XP-tan, making me feel like an ungrateful chump all of a sudden. :cry:

Also worth nothing is the fact the users that visit this place are still on the fence when it comes to Browser preference, with a quite a few opting for Opera/Safari.

Firefox is awesome simply because it has a kitsune as a mascot. I’ve yet to see IE-tan so I can’t make any comparisons. :lol:

Scheduled BS resumes tomorrow.

    powerd by lolifox…..i wish an update would come soon but i dont mind waiting tho

    i myself recently added vista ultimate as a dual boot since i bought an Asus EN9600GT :razz: during the last PCfair and i wanted to take full advantage of dx10 graphics.

    for the time being vista is purely for gaming purposes, im still using XP for everything else though :lol:

    Vista-tan is quite hot. That’s probably the only good thing that I’ll ever say concerning Vista. :mrgreen:

    Meh @ Vista…but I’d take it ’cause I’m running 64-bit XP Shit.

    I think I’d take 32-Bit XP over both of them in the long run though. I’ll grab Vista once it gets a few more things right.

    XP is comparable, if not better than vista if you’re a programmer and know how to add your own add-ons. kinda like buying new undies for her to keep up with vista. IMHO, xp is more versatile and is currently to date the best OS there is. too bad too many programs want to promote vista, making her the queen bitch of all OSes. DX10 seriously show little difference with DX9.

    Most of vista’s shitty bugs are cleared however with the latest updates. Also, you should try getting vista home media edition as the minimum. Vista home premium should also be the minimal reqs i feel if you’re going to make an ‘upgrade’ If you’re going to move from windows xp media edition, vista basic is actually poorer.

    In case you heed my advice, there’s the upgrade anytime option that allows u to upgrade to any version of vista from your current one with just the use of the internet. =) I’m not trying to promote windows or anything. Good luck with your vista. Hope its bug free.

    Alas, one last thing… =P there’s one last thing, IE8 beta is out, its stable and has all of mozilla’s function and more. IE8 itself will come out almost anytime. I’ve tried IE8 Beta1, its brilliant i think.

    You might regret the switch to Vista. It’s pretty bloated. XP, in my opinion, is a lot more stable, but lacks the built in eye-candy. Anyway, good luck with your switch. Let’s hope it won’t bring you much trouble.

    I’ve been using vista for a pretty long time now… and i find it really decent.. i like how the display/outlooks of vista compared to xp… besides that it also makes a couple of games i play load faster etc.. have not missed xp since i switched to vista! :wink:

    Vista is actually good, contrary to what people say. And these “people” are the ones who’ve never tried it in the first place.

    Though i’m wondering which Vista you’re using

    I would only use Vista when I get something new. Other than that, I’m sticking to XP. And oh my, I never know there’s Vista Ultimate (yes very out-dated I am, haha).

  20. Shin Shin MALAYSIA says:

    I guess this is an outcome when you make a post like this; with the XP camp duking it out with the Vista camp. :lol:

    @Aoshi

    Most likely going for Home Premium.

    OS-tans wise, I still prefer XP-tan for the time being. :oops:
