Anyone Using MS Vista?
click on one of our sponsors! OR REMOVE ADS
Just wondering if anyone is using MS Vista yet. I am currently using both RC1 and 2. I would like to discuss with others who are using either one.

Re: Anyone Using MS Vista?
I've been using RC1 since it came out without issue. It feels sluggish but all my apps work fine. What do you want to know?

World of Warcraft works. The Flight sim X demo worked. Open Office works. I didn't put AV software on it. Soulseek, iTunes...all work.

Re: Anyone Using MS Vista?
I have RC1 on my laptop and for the most part works okay, although many of my wireless cards (aircards not 802.11 standard) are not supported. I've yet to successfully update it via auto or windows updates. Perhaps I'll try RC2. I'm using bitdefender on it and it works well, so does office, and ie7.

If your talking about the final version I already have it. I received yesterday from my friend that does programming for them. It's my early christmas gift from him. It is there pro version if you want to call it that. It works alot better then the betas. I got McAfee to work on it. It comes with IE7 media 11 and alot of features that I yet to play with yet.

theres not much point of using beta right now if your not a diehard ms fan. theres simply too much bugs and not enough software comibility yet.

The final version is pretty good and I am not talking about the beta version. I still think its a hog on the system but will fix come time.

Sorry to bump an older thread but I have RC1 and 2 and I haven't had any problems other than what ernvato said about the wireless cards.

Re: Anyone Using MS Vista?
I'm not sure about trying it yet. Anybody had any DRM issues with it?
