Why I ‘upgraded’ back to XP

06.08.08 | No Comments

I think this forum post by ‘revmoo‘ sums it up nicely;

Things I like about Vista:
Aero

Things I hate about Vista:
Everything else

After the VMware autorun debacle (basically turning off autorun in Vista will mess with the ability to actually use your CD/DVD drive) and the constant resetting of folder views, I busted out the trusty N-lite-ed XP SP2 CD and installed it. One problem I will come across is the 4GB RAM limit of XP when I next upgrade. Do I buy a copy of XP x64 or simply live with it? Maybe I could go down the hackintosh route. Hell, I already have all my apps in OS X flavour already. Things I’m missing from Vista; nothing, absolutely nothing.

Still loving XP? Can’t stand going back to XP from Vista? What are your thoughts on the limited step forward that is Vista?
