Software Reviews of Windows Vista Ultimate with SP1 [OLD VERSION]

Customer Review: Horrible for advanced users
Summary: 1 Stars

Windows vista Ultimate is probably the worst operating system I have ever seen. I'm not talking about all the bells and whistles that make it pretty and neat. It us unusable and a system hog. I could not get media player or media center to reliably connect to my xbox360. instead of a program (drobo dash board) launching at startup, I had to click the allow button every time. the operating system is so locked down, that you can not install any program that microsoft deems unsafe (basically any software that doesn't pay them). To top it off, the operating system is extremely slow. I wish I could get my money back.... I reinstalled xp two days later. If you are looking for a great operating system, go with UBUNTU for linux.

Customer Review: Windows Vista Ultimate
Summary: 5 Stars

Best windows product I have used so far. I am running this on my Imac computer so I can run Flight Sim X,
and several other windows products I own. I would highly recommend this version of windows.

Customer Review: The Best Version of Windows yet, that doesn't say a lot.
Summary: 3 Stars

This operating system is what Windows XP should have been, but it still feels dated.
Gadgets are stupid and useless, UAC is annoying, but it's more stable than XP and deals better with the hassles of Viruses and Spyware. Also don't even bother installing it on a machine with less than 2GB of RAM - that would be a waste of your time.

Customer Review: I Was A Hater
Summary: 5 Stars

Ever since Vista came out, I've been cutting it up, laughing at my friends who got it, and harping on about how great OSX is, and that XP is the way to go if you have to use Windows. Well, a couple of weeks ago, after my XP Pro became seriously confused, and i knew i had to do a complete reinstall, I decided to get Vista and see for myself.

Low and behold, Vista is actually really good! I was truly shocked and still am to a certain degree that it even works...and dare i say it - works better than XP.

I do a lot of 3D modeling and animation, and use both Mac and PC throughout the day. I definitely like the simplicity and sophistication of OSX, but there are just some things that must be done on PC. And by far, Vista is the best version of Windows yet. It runs smoothly and faster on my machine (which is 3 years old) than XP.

I never though I'd say this, but it's almost made me like Windows again.

Don't believe the tidal wave of hate Vista has received, it is the evolution of Windows, and until a solid version of 7 comes out, the most enjoyable way to use your PC.
