    The official thread for any and all discussion related to Apple Inc.

    I am glad you feel this way. Windows is a piece of shi@! especially that excuse for an OS called Windows Vista. What a giant waste of a software calling itself an OS. Steve Ballmer should be given 40 lashes for unleashing the piece of cr@pware called Vista. :D

    Windows Vista Build 5384 Beta 2

    the keyword here is 256 MB graphics memory. With that kind of memory, you should have no problem with Vista. I think if you remove that 256 MB graphics memory bit, you may have a different experience with Vista.

    Upgrade edition of Vista?

    You are saying the opposite thing. What you are saying was the case with previous versions of Windows. From Windows Vista, the vista installer checks for the installed OS and validates if the OS is genuine. It does not check the disk anymore. If the installer determines that the installed...
