Vista SP1 - Dead On Arrival
So Microsoft mentioned that they are shipping the first service pack for Vista sometime this quarter. Unfortunately, there does not seem to be any performance improvements or any major driver issues resolved. Oh well. I’ll just keep with my Mandriva Linux, thank you very much. Much more secure than Windows, uses a lot less system resources and oh, is entirely free. The operating system and a host of software. Productivity, internet, games, you name it. There’s even emulator software to run (some) of your Windows software (not very well).
If you can handle some of the more “unique” folks in the user community, and the ubiquitous penguin mascot, then give it a try. Did I mention it’s all free?
