Im thinking of buying a Laptop and Vista is going to be a must. Looks very sexy lol

My computer looks pretty much the same because of the vista transformation pack.

But I realised I had denied myself of greatness. And have ordered it

go buy a 40 dollar video card that supports directx 9.. your card must be extremely old because even onboards have been DX9 for a while now..
ATI 9600/9700/9800 / the ATI X series / X1000 series

pretty much any video card for nvidia past the 4 series supports directx9 (not including 4, PAST 4)

Oh shit, thanks for the info.. I was thinking of buying a new graphics card since mine isn't good for aero.. not a big problem, but it's always a nice add-on. I'll definatly have to check those out, I'm sure most is better then what I have anyways. Thank god it's just my graphics card that sucks.

God havnt any of you heard of warez lmfao.. Ive had vista for like a year.

[Insanedragonz]

For some reason, I think Microsoft is trying to make Vista look like APPLE (MAC).

Legal OS > Warez OS tbh. I mean if I couldn't of gotten it for $70 then yea I would of probably just warezed it, but you got to be pretty cheap to pass up legal for $70 I rather have free support and updates and not have to worry about shifting through fake cracks and patches.
Screenshot tool? Heard something about it but never found it

lol re-cracking only takes a few minutes though

Sweeet. I think my brother is getting it...too bad he lives thousands of miles away from me -.-

[dolphinbomb]

I'm debating whether or not to get Vista now, if it's as great as you all say it is...
Pretty much the only thing stopping me in the price, though that shouldn't be a problem by the end of the week (I get paid on Friday )

We'll see, then.

What's the usual price of Vista?

What's the usual price of Vista?

It's about £145 for the home premium upgrade one, about $145 in the US for exactly the same...

Got to love Microsoft's currency conversion technique of changing the currency sign in front of the number.

[Justin]

I'm thinking about getting it just as an excuse to reformat >_>

£99 OEM? Sounds right. Unless its a retail version. If it is ...where?

And about the currency conversion thing. Its not a bad thing. Its just we have to pay about double..for being british

Aren't we lucky?

lol there were only like 2-3 small differences between Pro and Home, so please tell me out of those, which you couldnt live without on Pro

Home Premium has pretty much everything
