    "Is Vista Built Properly?"

    by MrMurder on August 8, 2009

    Pros: Attractive user interface.

    Cons: Power hungry, low compalibility, no support for heterogenous graphics, frequent start up and shut down errors.

    Summary: My dad first bought Windows Vista with his Dell Inspiron 530 desktop in 2007. It ran effeciently enough on the desktop CONSIDERING IT HAD A 2.4 GHZ CORE 2 QUAD PROCESSOR AND 3 GB OF DDR2-667 RAM!! He even installed Windows Vista Ultimate 32-bit on my Dell Dimension 4600 with a 2.4 GHz Pentium 4 processor and 1.5 GB of DDR-333 RAM. I was amazed Pentium 4 could handle this. It worked properly for a week and then Vista crashed. I couldn't evenboot it proerly with safe mode. I've also seen this error on Sony VAIOs in PC Richard and Son and on my uncle's desktop with a 3 GHz Pentium D and 2 GB of DDR2-667 RAM. I hope when Windows 7 comes out, it doesn't have kernel bugs like Vista.
