Re: Laptop with vista
Second Windows 7 if you have to go Windows. Rocks on my new laptop, better then Vista did, gets a higher user experience rating also. I dual boot 7 with Linux, and stay in Linux 90% of the time, so if you like linux that's and even better option.
The problem with new laptops is it is becoming harder and harder to find the drivers yourself to downgrade to XP. The laptop's my company just ordered comes with Vista x64, and no drivers from the manufacture to downgrade to XP. You would have to spend countless days googling for drivers that will work, and hope someone who has the same laptop as posted what they did to get it too work. Trust me, the CEO got a new HP tablet PC, and i spent DAYS searching for sata drivers just to get HP to see the hard disk on install. Finally gave up, and put Vista Ultimate on it for him.
The days of downgrading to XP on a new machine or just about over.
