try looking at it like your almost a newbie Skuzz, cause most of your customers ARE newbie's...oh and you got no choice in the matter, say i'm wrong on this:rofl

Its not my job to fix operating system troubles.  And if you spent 10 minutes at MS's TechNet site, you might get a better understanding of the problems anyone running Vista is going to have.

My job is to help people have the best experience in our game as possible.  To that end, I will categorically state, running Vista will cause performance problems with the game, if you can get the game to run at all.  Under some ATI drivers the game will work, under NVidia drivers, the game may not work.

You do not get it.  The sheer number of background processes and overhead dictated by DRM being imbedded in every single driver and API in the OS has raised the overhead significantly.  There is no way this OS will ever be as fast as XP, on the same hardware.  That is not an opinion.  It is a technical reality.

I have not seen any help forthcoming.  All I have seen is a 'peachy-keen' outlook for Vista, which is just wrong.

There are so many issues with various hardware and software packages, it would be irresponsible for anyone to say Vista is a-ok for the masses.

Good lord, you have to be kidding?

I have several thousand dollars worth of software rendered useless by Vista, if I install this pile-o-poop OS.  I know this because some other poor schmuck already made the mistake of trying it.

This is not about tech crap.  It is about functionality.  If you like less performance than XP, on faster hardware, then go for it.  If you want your high end audio/video software to no longer run, then go for it.  That is not about tech either.  It is about bang-for-the-buck.

This is why I will not be building another system till next year. It might take MS that long to get it all sorted out. Past history with these guys tells you that it will be about 18 months to a year before you can use their new OS. They didn't even say anything about Vista working for gamers. And it's taken this long for XP to work it's way for gamers. There are still alot of gamers still useing Win98 because of problems with XP.
