But ever new OS needs drivers. Every new os has always had greater requirements than the last. Vista has had issues, oems providing quality drivers being one. Vista compatable being another. XP neeed double the memory of Windows 2000. XP sp2 needed double again over XP sp0, and broke hardware if the bios was not up to date. It has its good points and its bad points. I use it and would not go back.

If an OS requires new drivers and more horsepower... we can't blame the new OS? Oh yes we can. --Matt ross _____ From: John Hornbuckle [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Vista wasn't perfect out of the gate, but it's not the piece of junk people think it is, either. A huge reason Vista has a negative image is that the hardware OEMs have been releasing buggy drivers for it--if they released drivers for it at all--and have been shipping Vista computers that either don't have enough horsepower or are bloated with crapware or bad drivers (or all three). It all adds up to a bad experience for users, and the OS gets the blame. ~ Upgrade to Next Generation Antispam/Antivirus with Ninja! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbelt-software.com/SunbeltMessagingNinja.cfm> ~
