What is in Ultimate for you? You decide.(Partition Magic not needed)

Date of Review:  Feb 22, 2007
The Bottom Line: If you like watching TV/Movies-recording TV shows-great security and when nVidia/ATI gets their act together-will be better than XP

The best Operating System from Microsoft

Date of Review:  Jun 2, 2008
The Bottom Line: If you have a new dual core computer get Vista
Review: Although this operating system is very controversial I find it to suit my needs for whatever I am doing. Since most new computers now come with Vista, there will be many people that will be forced to make the switch to this new operating system...

Not For Everyone

Date of Review:  Jul 11, 2008
The Bottom Line: If you are happy with your current operating system, then you probably should just stick with it.
Review: I've been using Windows Vista for about one year, and found it to be somewhat of a step forward and somewhat of a step backwards from its predecessor, Windows XP.

The new built in technology within Vista makes the operating the most secure...

Windows Vista big promises, but disappoints.

Date of Review:  Oct 28, 2008
The Bottom Line: Save time and money and stick with Windows XP Pro.  If you do select Vista install it on a dual core cpu, 2 gigs memory, mid range video card.
Review: I own PCs and laptops running Vista, Windows XP Pro, and Leopard. I am a geek who performs PC maintenance and IST support. 

Regarding Vista first the good points. Commendably in Vista, the All Programs list now show an expandable directory...

VISTA

Date of Review:  Dec 20, 2008
Review: I'm sure you've heard all the negative buzz about VISTA. And you've probably seen the Mojave commercial in which the amazing new OS from Microsoft is actually VISTA.
The truth is, VISTA is actually a pretty good operating system.  It's very user...

Best Microsoft OS yet, worth buying

Date of Review:  Aug 5, 2008
The Bottom Line: A worthy buy if looking for a new, stable, operating system with many improvements.
Review: Windows Vista has got to be one of the best operating systems Microsoft delivered yet. It offers many new improvements over XP and introduces widgets, with many new ones that you can download. The GUI is much nicer over previous versions of Windows...

Review: I bought my new Dell Inspiron with Windows Vista Ultimate, because I heard the Home version had lots of bugs.  Oh my God!  If the crap of Ultimate version is the "best" of them... what can I expect form the other versions?

Best OS Ever

Date of Review:  Aug 13, 2008
Review: This is the best OS Ever to be available to the general public. It requires a newer system, and you should get the 64 bit version as this makes better use of the system components. So many features that just work, minimal configuration needed out of...
