Customer Rating:      Summary: Miserable performance, poor compatability, little to gain Comment: I purchased Vista to upgrade my Windows XP machine, only to find out that I must then upgrade my computer to work with it. My machine, which was fast by a gamers standards was miserable beneath Vista. I spent most of my time waiting for things to load, accepting pop-up boxes and searching the web for computer upgrades before I finally switched back to Windows XP.
Customer Rating:      Summary: vista gives me a hard time Comment: it took me a long time to get this product and I probably should have waited because I put this upgrade on top of windows xp and now I have problems. I'll sort it all out but Vista is a disgrace!
Customer Rating:      Summary: Windows 98? Comment: Windows Vista? Come on. I upgraded my laptop from XP to this horrible OS and ended up selling it when I found out I could not downgrade...another microsoft perk. The OS itself is nothing but bugs, and windows 98 with a paint job...nothing new here except a few head shaking Leopard rip off's. This OS crashes like there is no tommorw (this was with a 2GB laptop) boot up time takes about 5 mins, shut down time takes even longer, the endless security pop ups are enough to burn the cd in your fire place and unleash a virus into this OS yourself (which is quite easy) and enough windows LIVE crap you couldn't dislodge with a nuke. I even gave this piece of crap a second chance in my Parallels VM on my Macbook pro. I tried it becasue it would run as a guest to OS X and not take over my MAC in the virus ridden Vista way. It worked at top speed but was still just a pain in the backside compared to OS X and Linux which I am also using and made Windows unusable. Windows rates 4th on my list of OS's thats because I have only stuck to 4 OS's in my 15 years of computing. I have used Windows since 3.1, still use XP at work untill they get the Mac's in so I can tell you, VISTA *ucking sucks. OS X and Ubuntu are so much better, easier, open, reliable, dependable, virus free, and they work! So once again Windows was removed from my system altogether and this time for good, so long windows, windows live and MSN, good riddence. FREEDOM!
Customer Rating:      Summary: Clean Install NOT POSSIBLE Comment: WARNING! All previous "Upgrade" versions of Windows would allow you to perform a clean install, and simply provide proof of your previous Windows version.
NOT WINDOWS VISTA UPGRADE. It's now known as "Windows Anytime Upgrade." Apparantly this means "anytime but when you actually need it -- after a hardware failure."
This version of Windows Vista does NOT allow for a clean install. You will be told that you need to perform an upgrade of an existing, running version of Windows. You CANNOT do a clean install.
And now you start to get a glimpse of why people hate Windows Vista!
Customer Rating:      Summary: Happy with upgrade Comment: I bought the upgrade version of vista ultimate with service pack 1. The installer chose the 32-bit version of the os due to my printer (no 64-bit drivers). You can actually open a ticket with MS if you expect a 64b install but don't get it. Remote windows login required domain after username to work. Media center needs to be restarted when going from window to full-screen (minor bug). Love the power management. Almost all drivers were found online by vista! Overall am pleased with this upgrade!
