 * Microsoft isn't a conspiracy, EA is a conspiracy. Them and Blizzard.  Then again, I have ethical/creative differences with them... [[Image:RHSig.jpg]] talk 18:46, 29 July 2008 (UTC)


 * At least Blizzard doesn't buy out everyone else like EA does. *washes hands due to typing EA* --Gimmethegepgun 20:47, 29 July 2008 (UTC)
 * Also, related articles section needed with this in it :P --Gimmethegepgun 20:48, 29 July 2008 (UTC)
 * Very funny...but if you ask me, Vista is at least on par with XP, if not better. I personally use it (I had to get it to play Halo 2 for PC) and I find that as long as everything is up to date, it runs fine.  People need to at least try it out before forming an opinion of it, since most people avoid it because of what other people say.  My computer runs faster with Vista than it did with XP.  I set it up to not warn me about possible "virus threats" every 5 seconds which is one thing people hate (seriously, just go through the computer settings and you can turn it mostly off).  Then again, I am an extreme computer geek, so I know what I'm talking about.  Kaos Mastr 18:17, 28 July 2009 (UTC)


 * "My computer runs faster with Vista than it did with XP" ->That's practically imposible. Vista uses shitloads of almost everything your PC has, while XP barely uses anything. Perhaps you've got such a monster PC that you don't notice the difference. I've seen plenty of people using Vista, and I've seen how it turned relatively fast machines on XP into snails... --[[Image:El Nazgir sig.png|Talkpage]]El_Nazgir 19:18, 28 July 2009 (UTC)
 * EDIT: Btw, there's a reason why windows 7 is going to come out so soon after vista...
 * @Kaos: Looks like someone took CS III. True, you can turn that shit off, but the fact its that annoying in the first place is a bad thing.  Also, I've seen what a reasonably good computer (as of mid-2008) runs like under Vista, and it was like when my dad first upgraded us up to Windows 95 after a long stint of Win3.1/DOS, it was slow as crap and took an unacceptably long time to do rather simple things, like open a DOS console.  He (my friend) thankfully had the foresight to make the computer a dual-boot system so he could do a trial sorta thing without having to go back and put up XP if Vista turned out to be shit, which it did.


 * As I see it, the problem lies with Microsoft over-engineering their software to the point of ridiculousness. They tried to make it prettier and filled it with a bunch of totally unnecessary crap that they could've easily done away with.  They wanted to appeal to the new Web 2.0 retards that like their stuff to be all looks and no substance, adding meaningless new features or trying to fix things that just weren't broken.  Anyone remember the time when cellphones were just small, portable phones, not fucking microcomputers that are "so cool, they don't even need you?"  Those were good days, when things had a set function, if you wanted a portable computer, you got a fucking laptop like a sensible human being.  If you wanted to chat with someone, you used something like IRC or AIM, there wasn't any need for the retardation that is Twitter.  If you would've suggested something like Twitter back in the late 90's, you would've gotten tarred and feathered.  If you're going to make anything that's worth a shit, fuck the new generation, they don't know what the fuck they're talking about.  Take your time, give your software substance, make sure the features you use are well-engineered, efficient, and take up as little space as possible.  Also testing, do extensive testing, and test it on an "average" computer, not some shit that only 5% of computer users could possibly have.  OK, rant over.

 * See also: Most new games (shooters moreso than others to my experience); Shiny new graphics, but either way too easy (thus, short) or simply crappy (thus, frustrating) gameplay. Oh, and that horrid gray/brown drab on most modern games makes me puke. Dirt is brown, the sun isn't, damnit. --- [[Image:VipermagiSig.JPG|Ohaider!]] -- (contribs) &emsp;(talk)  09:02, 29 July 2009 (UTC)
 * @El Nas: Not necessarily impossible to see a performance increase over XP on vista, as microsoft products get bloated the more time you use them, a clean install of Vista is likely to be faster than year old XP with loads of programs and apps running in the background slowing it down [[File:Thoughtful's RT sig test.jpg]]Talk  11:06, 29 July 2009 (UTC)
