Conclusion: Sucks

April 13, 2008 · Posted in Blog 

After using Vista for a while, I come to the conclusion that it sucks ass.

It’s not just the ridiculous resource usage or the extreme uglyness. It’s also the extremely poor performance.

May I expect to be able of browsing through my files without having to wait three minutes for Explorer to load the contents of a folder? Because I think I do. Several games run terrible on Vista, but run perfectly fine on XP. Explorer for some reason refuses to just show the proper icons on files. My SVN client doesn’t work properly with it. It takes forever to find settings that were straightforward in XP. Etc. Etc. Etc.

Looks like I have a copy of Windows Vista to uninstall.

    Lol, took you long enough.
    How about the o-so annoying “Needs permission to continue” messages?
    The User Account Control sucks arse.
