Are you going to move to Vista?

[ViN86]

so, when vista is released, will you be moving to it, or will you be waiting as long as you can to prevent spending a good deal of money on it?

[Monolyth]

Going to wait 4-5 months after release for serious issues to be resolved and more stable drivers.

[J-Mag]

I will switch over to vista whenever there is solid proof that it has performance gains in games that I play or new features that otherwise wouldn't be available in DX9 while maintaining a par on performance.

[Banko]

Dual boot!

[superklye]

Yeah, I'm also going to wait a few months for any launch kinks to be worked out and for hardware manufacturers get their drivers up to snuff.

[OWA]

ASAP for my 2nd system just to see how it goes.

[slaWter]

Dual boot!


Same here ;)

[skoprowski]

I'll get it as soon as it comes out, but I'm going to dual boot. Win XP will still be my primary operating system- I'm guessing for a long time still.

[nekrosoft13]

i will get at least one copy, but not for my main pc, still to many little stupid issues to use it on main pc

[CaptNKILL]

Same here ;)
And here.

[SH64]

I'll get Vista when games start making real good use of it that forces me to drop XP.

[crainger]

My HTPC will get Vista Ultimate ASAP. My gaming machine will wait until DX10 games arrive and jAk has done all the testing for us :D

[GlowStick]

On my desktop ill get vista asap. However so far people who have tested vista retail on my laptop show battery life to be less than half of xp due to not having the power saving crap working completely etc so ill be sticking with xp for a while on the lappy!

[Starscream]

I'll probably hold off until at least the first service pack.

Although I might install it on one of bench machines at work to get more familiar with it.

[Siskods9]

I didn't buy this 8800GTX just to be a DX9 card... :o

[grey_1]

I'm waiting a while to see what bugs get squashed etc. I have so few problems with XP there's really no point in spending the cash.

[Lfctony]

I will move to Vista eventually, I'm not an early adopter of OSs. I moved to XP 2 years after it's release and only because I had to...

But they work so well as a DX9 card :D

[buffbiff21]

I plan on getting it, me and my friend are gonna split it.

I figure, since XP is still ridiculously expensive for a 5 year old program, that Vista will not drop in price much or at all. So, why not buy it when it comes out?

Dual boot sounds good to me too. ;)

[Shamrock]

I will hold off as long as possible.

only one of you will be able to get the updates... plus thats not technically legal heh

[NaitoSan]

I plan to get Vista Ulitmate asap. Student discount is always nice, but I'm also expecting free Vista Ulitmate from my school since Microsoft is just cross the street. Basically I'll have two copies. ;)

[john19055]

I may get it when it come out with one of those speacial free upgrade when you buy a oem version of XP pro from newegg,but if it does not support my games or it a lot slower ,I guess I could do a duall boot too.

[Marvel_us]

When there is enough support......And my Uni gives me a free copy, I will switch to Vista.(xmasgrin)

[Ancient]

I'm already running Vista Ultimate RTM (yes, it's a legal copy), but not on my main machine. When the 880 drivers are released I'll install it on the main system.
