After all the service packs Vista became pretty useable, I'm on it every day at work and I rarely have problems.

[I]Mainstream[/I] support. It's on schedule, and it's been Microsoft policy since at least XP's release (actually I think it's longer back, but I'm not gonna check). Nothing to worry about.

It just means 7 will only be getting critical and important updates for security and stability. Any feature related ones will no longer be released. Its got another 5 years before its at Windows XP status.
Back when vista came out i tried it and it was so bad i didn't downgrade to XP, i downgraded to windows 2000 pro.
Nowadays it's a completely different beast, runs loads better.

Its actually pretty funny. Through Dreamspark Premium, you could get pre-SP1 Vista. As I ran updates to get it up to SP2, it became noticeably faster and more stable. :v:

Because when it was released it was a broken, bloated, buggy, overbearing and awful mess?
After SP2, Vista's not bad, even on modest hardware.
Are there anymore like this, Big Bill's Hell, and Son of Spam? I love these kind of videos.
