Some querries before buying Vista

[alsiladka]

@alsiladka
he is currently using vista ultiate with all updates. He's only concerned bout what wud happen when Sp1 releases.

He is planning of buying an OS. So when the other user suggested XP, i made that comment about DX 10.

check it out...the OEM edition is costing 10,750/-, the box pack DVD edition on ebay is Rs. 16785/-.

btw i suggest u go for a Home basic/home premium edition and then upgrade later...i have heard that MS has given this facility to upgrade.

Yes Microsoft has something for everyone. For me they have
Windows Vista "Idiots Edition"

Ps: Don't ask for any links. It is exclusively designed and developed for me.

guyz,i got 5.8K
which edition would come in this much money??

 

[nvidia]

^^Vista Home Premium...
I think its better if you spend your money in a more productive way

 

[utsav]

None i suppose

 

[gxsaurav]

U can buy Home premium for that money, that's all u will ever need.

Really dude, Don't go for Vista atleast until SP1 releases.Microsoft is bundling some 500-odd patches in SP1.You will be missing out on those if you get Vista now.

 

[dOm1naTOr]

And by that time maybe MS will bring down the price. At least ur current vista ultimate can serve u till then.

500??

 

[utsav]

Only 500? i expect more from microsoft

 

[goobimama]

how

Count me in too!

Anyway, enough of this nonsense. Ultimate is not going to get cheaper any time soon. So if you want that, prepare to shed 10k. Otherwise go for Home Premium which will give you all the features that you need and it fits your budget.

U won't miss those 500+ updates which comes with Sp1. U can manually dl the SP1 nd install after the validation procedures. But ull heve to do it every time u install vista. Its 2x time consuming.
Or u can get any SP1 integrated discs [or dl it] and use ur s/n for making it genuine. This is possible only in ase of full, i think it wont work with OEM.

Apart from the name 'ULTIMATE' there is nothing much. Go for Home Premium 32bit Retail. I believe (not sure) but its cost is 5-6 grands now !

I won't even try it even if M$ gives it free, moreover when SP3 is few months away...
