Re: [amibroker] OT: XP / Vista

At least AmiBroker runs fine on Vista. I have Vista on my notebook and it is just fine.
As long as you run 32 bit Vista and you disable some new features like SuperFetch and UAC,
Vista behaves pretty much the same as XP.
Most problems people have with Vista come from UAC (user access control) that creates compatibility
issues for old applications. As soon as you turn that off (from Control Panel) there are no problems in installing programs from even from 1998.
 
 The RAM consumption people are afraid of is
a result of superfetch feature that loads every program you use frequently on startup, but it can be easily disabled.
Sooner of later Microsoft will tell people that XP is no longer supported.

I've heard too many complaints about vista to even consider it at this point.  Most vendors will supply XP if you insist.  Why be a beta tester for Micorsoft's latest?

I am about to buy a laptop ... wondering if I should get it with XP or Vista.
 
I am quite happy with my XPs so I'd rather stay with it unless there is some compelling reason to migrate to Vista.
 
Appreciate any feedback
