That’s something I thought MS screwed up with. They allowed computer companies to sell machines labeled “Vista Capable” but shipped with 512 of memory.
Did they expect that to really work?
I have a laptop with Vista Ultimate and it works flawlessly. It’s equipped to run the OS and yet to have a problem. Never had a compatibility issue, crash or freeze up. Networks better than anything I’ve tried.
If I read what Mac users (and linux users) say about it (you know, people who don’t own or use it), you’d think Vista couldn’t run a keyboard.
Maybe I’m the exception. I did research before purchase. The hardware was right.
That’s a big reason why Apple’s stuff works. It’s simply matched to run the OS and still has the power to do more.
I think that was MS’s big blunder for a lot of things.
I’m still on Vista. I like it much better now that all the service packs are out.
Windows 7 runs perfect. It does every thing I want or need and more. I just can’t see paying hundreds of dollars more for a machine that would do the things I want it to do.
Apple did an outstanding job fooling people into believing they created some magical machine. As a matter of fact the new add for the IPad actually states that it is “Magical”.
Why wouldn’t anyone want to have some magical machine? Brilliant sales strategy IMHO.
