    Windows P w/ a classic 98 look in lieu of the BS XP front. Vista is hogwash and unnecessarily complicated and they are so f'g hard up to sell it they are devising different marketing techniques...I am not going for the bait.....sadly the stores I would have purchased a new computer from are no longer removing Vista....did u even know they were doing that until about 5 months ago? That is on account of the fact that it is a terrible system...that is why I don't like it..why make something more complex? Xp of any edition is complex enough and as well simple enough.....great question...

    Thanks

    I use Vista and Ubuntu(Linux). It's really not as bad as everyone says.

    I recommend you get Windows Vista and then Ubuntu. Have a dual-boot pc.

    Ubuntu is a very user friendly distro. of linux. It is completely free.

    Macs work great but have a strange interface, hard to use, if you use Windows.

    -----EDIT-----

    You can turn off user account control, the annoying message that pops up asking you to confirm. I don't remember how, I did it on my Vista laptop, I'm on XP right now. Sorry

    well tried the vista and i didn't like it at all it asks you every time you try to go to another page do you want to open this page and you have to click yes and that can get on your nervous so i went back to xp i like it a lot better but that is just my opinion and you should decide for your self because what one person likes another may not
