Are U Ready For Vista

I figure there must be alot of people interested in Vista and I know many here have tested it so for those curious and needing advice start your postings now and I and I am sure others will help to get you ready for Vista.
I reccomend these minnimum specs for upgrading to Vista
64bit or dual core processor 2ghz or better,
2gb of ram,
200gb hard drive,
512mb Video Card,
Dual layer Dvd-R/Rw,
7 in 1 or better card reader,
Hd ready WXGA Widescreen Display of 19 inches or better.

My current system used to test Vista AMD Athlon Xp 3000, 2ghz, 333fsb, 512kb cache, 512mb Nvidia 7600 GS AGP Video Card, 160gb Seagate hard drive, 2gb PNY PC 3200 Ram, DVD Dual Layer R/Rw, MSI K7VTA PRO V4 Motherboard, Linksys 54mb Pci Wireless card on equal network and router. 17 Hdtv for display with up to 1280x768 32 bit resolution.

i recommend never using Vista to begin with.

 

Exactly. No need for a botched abortion of an operating system when you already have perfectly good and secure ones out there.

 

yeah... DOWN WITH VISTA! DOWN WITH VISTA!

btw... how do you pronounce it? is it like "veesta" or "vista" ( both are said phonetically - however you spell it )

 

the spanish word is pronounced "veesta," but the commercials on TV say, "vih-sta."

 

okay, cool... the only reason i asked is cos i spent a bout a year calling beta "beta" instead of "beeta" - so i thought this would have been the same, so i started calling it "veesta"

thats about 2-3 months wasted on calling it "veesta"... damnit!

 

when was beta ever called "beeta." from the perspective of someone who doesn't know of the particular case, historically that would be a case of a sheer mistake. should be said "bay-ta".

 

really?

you have to remember that i live in scotland... and where i come from, glasgow, we don't speak like desmond in lost.

got to http://www.glesga.ndo.co.uk/index.htm to understand what i mean, or http://www.glasgowsurvival.co.uk/

its quite fun living here.

but seriously, its pronounced bay-ta... you sure thats not just in an american accent?

2 mins... im away to check s dictionary... okay just checked the oxford english dictionary.

it says its pronounced bi:tə

 

i'm fairly sure that's not just an american accent, as my logic professor, a rather chatty englishman, said the word the same way i do.
