| Yeah, other than the "protection" crap on Vista which you can just turn off with a little work, it's been really solid so far. |

MS should un itself by removing its head from its ass and go back to making some kind of a useable OS. I ain't moving away from XP even if MS intentionally makes it crash. I'll just re-install, barricade it away from the internets and on Vista. And WHAT THE WERE THEY THINKING WITH THIS TY ASS "RIBBON CONTROLLER"? WHAT KIND OF ING IDIOT CAME UP WITH THAT? "Gee wiz... we have Mary Smellycrotch in Accounting that just barely figured out how to use Office 2003 on her company's dollar. Now, let's re-design the product that was majorily ed up going into 2003 and make it MORE CONFUSING! Yeah, that idea will sell like ing hotcakes! I can see IT departments and wallet holders lining up to buy this new product AND pay for re-training their staff to master the ty crap! BRILLIANT!" :rolleyes:
Serves them ing right. If next version of Windows is just as ty as Vista, I'm moving to Ubuntu. :whip: |

Yikes! 25,000 is 7.5% of our workforce, yours is a huge chunk. Some groups got more layed off than others in our org too though.

A lot, no.
The economy sucks for everyone. |

That's funny, cause I could play Crysis online with med.-high settings and my computer worked just fine. |

That's funny, coz I could run crysis in DX9 at ultra high settings and it looked/ran way better. |
