Well let's begin with it being incompatible with a host of programs that I had been using. Disinformation my a$$..folks are just telling it like it is....it is much slower than XL...now I know that they have put all kinds of security measures etc...I'm not a geek...just a user that wants stuff to work.....and Vista in many cases so far has not.....and I have never been a MS basher. I just was trying to upload a file from frontpage and it gave me all kinds of fits.... The long and short of it is....as I stated earlier...I would give 99 bucks to get XP loaded on this new machine!!

Well go onine and purchase an XP disc, or use your old one. I dont understand why its slow to you though, just about everything about the OS is quicker than XP. I personally did have some slow startups at first but thats because this PC came preloaded with Norton Bloatware, uninstalled its much better.

Vista seemed to be faster than Xp to me.
