Title: Weekly IC Poll 2/4/07 Post by: shaggy on February 04, 2007, 09:54:42 AM Did you or are you getting Vista?
Title: Re: Weekly IC Poll 2/4/07 Post by: Ando on February 04, 2007, 09:57:16 AM I have no desire. At all. Get your Vista away from me.
Of course, I will upgrade eventually, but only because at some point no programs will work with XP anymore, so I'll be forced to. But until then, XP serves my needs just fine. Title: Re: Weekly IC Poll 2/4/07 Post by: Barracuda on February 04, 2007, 10:25:21 AM I have no plans on buying it. I'm sure somedoay I'll buy a computer that comes with vista on it though.
Title: Re: Weekly IC Poll 2/4/07 Post by: James on February 04, 2007, 11:18:40 AM I'm perfectly happy with XP but I can see myself getting Vista in a year or two. I was going to give it a year and see how it went then upgrade once everything had been ironed out.
I'm sure when XP first came out everyone was saying "It's full of bugs. I'll only reluctantly upgrade when I'm eventually forced to. It takes up a lot of resources... etc etc." Give it a while and I'm sure it will be a perfectly capable OS. However, I feel like boycotting it for a while. In a BBC interview, Bill Gates was asked why Vista is the same in dollars as it is in pounds. I.E. One of the versions is $150 in America but the same one is £150 over here. Mr Gates replied "I'm not up to date with the current exchange rate". Absolute bollocks.

Title: Re: Weekly IC Poll 2/4/07 Post by: Izret101 on February 04, 2007, 12:13:42 PM I have vista but it is not yet installed and probably will not be for quite some time.

No Vista for me. Title: Re: Weekly IC Poll 2/4/07 Post by: bum-man on February 04, 2007, 01:03:21 PM What Hydrobond said, not to mention I never trust the first release of anything MS puts out.

Title: Re: Weekly IC Poll 2/4/07 Post by: Tondog on February 04, 2007, 06:29:16 PM I got Vista free from school...legally. Great OS.
Title: Re: Weekly IC Poll 2/4/07 Post by: OatBob on February 04, 2007, 07:54:24 PM I got it free (and legitimate) from my school also. I'm running it on VMware on my laptop. Makes it a hard choice for this kind of poll because I'm running multiple OSes. Anyways, the interface is rather slick, and I can watch my Dreamcast auctions on the Ebay sidebar gadget.
Title: Re: Weekly IC Poll 2/4/07 Post by: Tynstar on February 05, 2007, 11:06:17 AM I will one day but no time soon. I have a legal copy I could load now but I will wait until som of teh bugs are worked out. Maybe after service pack 1.
Title: Re: Weekly IC Poll 2/4/07 Post by: shaggy on February 05, 2007, 03:28:53 PM I will probably get it eventually because the other OS's will be obsolete by than. I'm happy with XP, anyways, plus Vista has a ton of bugs that need to be worked out.

Title: Re: Weekly IC Poll 2/4/07 Post by: Zimbacca on February 07, 2007, 08:26:10 PM I will get it eventually but it's not going to be for a year or two.
