Try using EAX sound...Vista doesn't support it.

Especially since within 2 years Linux will be standardized and more than competitive with Winblows.  Big name computer companies are already putting out machines with Linux pre-installed.  Give us a standardized Linux with all its diverse support groups focused in one group and those companies will be falling over themselves to offer cheaper computers that still have bundled software apps and outperform their Windows counterparts.

I've been gaming with XP pro & home for at least six years & the only thing it was fubar on was certain in particular older games like Home World & Panzer Commander to name two off the top of my head, but that was the game developers fault not the OS.

 Anyone who is still clinging to Windows 98 (I know a few too) needs to open their eyes & give XP a fair chance before all that is available is Vista. XP is solid & mine has been crash free & a good performer. I liked 98-SE but it doesn't hold a candle to XP imo It boggles my mind why Microslave is so intent on getting away from XP, it's their best OS since 95 came out.

I used to love Panzer Commander.  It is still a far better armor sim than the ground war in AH, even though I still enjoy the AH ground war.

How much longer you guys think XP is going to be viable?

I'm guessing you got about 4-5 years for XP. If you build a really good system now with all the bells and whistles.  The only problem I can see is getting drivers for XP in a few years.   Games will probably still be created for XP for the next couple of years.   There are some things I see that still have driver support for Win2k so I would figure about 5 years, just in time for the next POS MS OS to be released

I can't figure out why you are trying to sell it so hard here in an arena it has no real use.

Scuzzy, you're going to have to get with the times sooner or later.
Vista is the future.

Build a bridge and get over it. :aok
