XP vs Vista again

VERSUS


It's one of those XP vs Vista thing again. After months Vista penetrated the market, many users and companies especially are reverting back to Windows XP [1]. Now that Vista has become more of an annoying flashy zombie OS, another issue with Mac OS X arises. Seems like the new Leopard are troublesome enough for some users, and are reverting back to the Tiger [2]. Personally I have no comment on the Leopard thing because I'm not using Mac OS and I'm kinda satisfied using Windowz Hisham Ultimate :). I used to have both XP and Vista before running on different partitions to compare their performance. Basically I just used Vista from time to time to show off especially during presentation and such, but for work and play it's good old XP. Reason?

SPEED: Vista has no mercy on my 512MB DDR2 RAM
VISUAL: N
ice, I can use the aero effect, but that's it, nothing fancy
UPDATES: The Windows Update is nice, but giving me useless updates? Crap.
SECURITY: I don't like being doubted and asked ALL the times about my actions. So whenever the darn pop-up asking "You sure you want to open this application bla bla..." I got so fed up I just had to reformat and not install Vista again.

But all in all, it's still up to some people who still find Vista enjoyable to give the OS a chance. I'm not one of those people. For the moment, I'm just going to modify and stay with my pimped-out personal hybrid OS until something good hits the market.


This is just Ultimate, I'm going to mod it into Godlike XD
