epic fail.

because i'm too lazy to point that out further with my own words, i just quote paul thurrott:

It really shouldn't be surprising that a six and a half year old operating system doesn't offer the same level of functionality and usability as a new OS. But then that's the point here, isn't it? No one in their right mind would claim that XP was somehow "better" than Vista. Only that it is good enough. I believe this sentiment to be correct. XP is good enough, for the short term, good enough to last you until you replace or upgrade whatever PC you're currently using and upgrade to Windows Vista. Good news: You're going to love it.

i myself miss all those features mentioned in the article when i have to deal with xp at work, while using vista at home.

LilQi: agreed. Welcome to the forum BTW.

has it runs faster and more reliable

There's basically no speed difference on today's hardware, and Vista SP1 is more reliable.

Either ways:

-this doesn't belong in the vLite section

-there's loads of such topics already, some exactly like this one, and others having been around for 5 years. No point for yet another one.

Agreed, no need to open another topic.

Just to let you know there are some of us who think the opposite.
