Okay I have an HP desktop aight, 3 gigs of memory, 500 GB, BFG grapchics card, the works almost an extra $1,000 just to touch it up. Okay if it had xp instead of vista it work like a charm. One thing sometimes it wont even connect to the internet so I gotta restart it 45% of the time. Also Im a huge gamer, one of the main reasons I bought this during the xmas season at Best Buy. I asked a Geek Squad guy will I be able to play older games such as Brothers In Arms and the first 2 Call of Duties and he said yes. Xmas morning it didnt even wanna take the games so outta the $20 bucks it bought em with I sold em and got $5 at Half Price. And another thing Microsoft announced that vista was their #1 worse product on their line and now between June and July of this year all xp computers WILL BE NO MORE. What is wrong with Microsoft?

Vista is the BEST operating system from microsoft.

I could go into detail, but most of you wouldn't understand my technical rants.

Play modern games, and you'll learn that Vista BLOWS XP AWAY.

BTW... If you play older games, why are you stupid enough to get a computer that has more than your games will utilize?

The internet issue is likely an HP problem, do some research and you will quickly learn that HP builds HORRIBLE computer's. Ever since they merged with compaq, they've been having serious quality issues. (I've got friends with HP computer's, and i've owned a few to know first hand it's the hardware.)
