    Yes my system does support Aero and I do use it. I'm still using the RC2 version so I'm still testing. All the software and hardware I have on it now works fine.

    Why don't you like it?

    messed up the autoquote there a bit, amigo.

    there's lots of reasons to hate vista, from being a systems hog to DRM to the typically windows BSOD and instability issues. it's simply inferior to what can be found out there for far cheaper/free.

    the *only* reason to stick with windows is for the games. everything else can be done as well or better on a linux system. the key to have a gaming machine and a regular-use, down-tuned machine, which i'd say most people who game have anyway. just put linux on the down-tuned machine and you'll be a happy camper. :)

    *edit*
    based upon what you and neph and many others have said, creakster, that's what i currently intend to do. my only worry is that the conversion might be a bit tricky for me, but it should go well overall, i hope.

    If you read the thread i linked to, you'll see why i don't like it.
    From both a professional and personal point of view.
    Btw, next time, close the quote tags properly would you?

    I'll have to read it later. Re the quotes, I just clicked on the quote link so I don't know what happened.

    ripdox,
    I'd sure appreciate it if you could tell me where you found that wallpaper.

    You really made that? It's awsome!

    As for my resolution, the higher the merrier! I love hi-res images, even if they run into file sizes above 5MB ;)

    Here's mine, BTW.
