Yeah. The only thing I don't like about vista is its horrible networking. Other than that it is a great operating system. Apple is kinda iffy on their marketing now. (.maleficus, number 4 was worded beautifully ;P)

Coffee is love, coffee is life.
What is so horrible about Vista networking?
I think that Vista is a true failure not only because its lack of everything good but because Microsoft hasn't fixed it yet. I am hesitant to try Windows 7 due to this.

I got my uncle's new Vista machine online today. Despite the unfamiliar and sometimes counterintuitive options and wizards, this wasn't all that difficult once I figured out the real problem - by resetting the cable modem. Windows then decided all was well.
Of course, I then had to tell Internet Explorer no less than three times that it was no longer supposed to be in offline mode, so some of their software still needs a bit of work.
What advanced features as XP? I find it about the same for both.
There may be some interference, or just not a good card. Microwaves and Wiis interfere a lot with the signal. Other networks using the same channel can too.
