I hate vista.... oh wait, why am I here again?

nopinktoday: Do you hate Vista? What if Vista hates you? What if you hated Vista and it told its mom on you? OOOOOOOOOO tsk tsk.

For real: I doubt anything will change with SP2, any beta testers that can chime in on any improvements?

Also: LOL @ slickuser below. Nice comment. :D

LOL nopinktoday!

It's true isn't it? We'll get the usual quota of semi-literate window lickers crawling out to speak their brain. Of course, one wonders why they hang around MS orientated blogs rather than Linux ones.

...

Probably because since no-one cares about Linux they wouldn't have an audience.

Vista SP2 disguised as Win7. Update to Vista SP2 and wait for Win7 SP1. Keeping XP Pro SP3 in the loop. And so it goes, on and on.

i just hope this sp2 will do the same thing with vista like the sp2 for xp did for it, at least before sp2 came out for xp i stuck with 2k, still remember back then how horrible things were

just lucky the net wasn't mature back then and less flaming goes on

I guess I'm one of the few that never had any problems with Vista. Don't see what all the fuss has been about.
