The only one I couldnt run so far was diablo 2. I went with lower resolution (800x600) and it works great now.

I cant run any of my old MS-DOS games (yes I still have some), and most of the games included in the First Decade don't work (I bought them all seperately, First decade should work fine for those of you reading this). And, lower res suck balls.

I like Vista. I personally feel its a great improvement over XP. Since it is built over XP, I think a few of the XP glitches are still in the OS unfixed and have become issues of Vista.
However, I strongly believe Vista shouldnt have taken over 6 years to release. It could have been rounded in 3 years but unfortunate for Microsoft, the program was restarted from scratch several times due to WinFS and so many other features they wanted to implement.
Its still a great OS but definitely not the best OS there is.

and more, I feel Windows Media Player is another big bug. Run it and my CPU goes almost full and takes more time to load. WinAMP however is lighter and faster than Windows Media Player. Why doesnt Microsoft ever learn?

I beta tested vista for a year before its release and it had a few nice things about it the most impressive was its ability to recover from fatal errors. The biggest drawbacks (especially after release) was that as in previous versions when the updated device drivers used to be included with the OS (XP is the best example) Vista included none of the peripheral hardware drivers with the OS. This action did big damage to Vista's reputation because when people bought a new computer with Vista and brought it home or to the office none of the peripherals would work. Then they would go to the manufacturer site to get a driver to find that there were no drivers for Vista available for older models. (imagine that) So it was then suggested they purchase new periphals by the manufacturers. This scenario was created due to a lack of completeness on Microsoft's part for allowing the periphal manufacturers to force the buyers of new computers to get new periphals and blame it on Vista. (Oh how they love it when a plan goes through) This created a lot of resentment in the community. then Vista changed the furnature around way too much without giving an easy way for more challenged users to find their way around. (similar to a blind man at home when someone changes the furnature and cabinets around)It now looks much more like my OS10x Macs and is closer to the same directory structure. This created more dissatisfaction amoung the masses. I'm Ok with Vista but my main production machine is still XP because it runs almost twice as fast as Vista on the same hardware.

I do agree with most of that. I believe that Vista actually should have taken longer. The first versions of Vista were terrible. I am a gamer, but still believe that XP has it's gaming advantages. The current version of Vista, however, is very stable and I like it.

Vista rocks! I haven't touched my Macbook in about three weeks; will probably end up selling it. Not that there's anything wrong with it; in fact I like it a lot. But no sense in having a $1200 paperweight laying around...

Yes, i have had Vista for about 18 Months and like most after using xp vista was a bit odd, however, trial and eroor and i pushed vista as far as one can....of course with a backup just in case, and no matter what it remains like a Timex watch, takes a licking and keeps on ticking. i had to do about 3 reinstalls but i can't complain all things start out experimental, I'll keep my vista thanks you.
