I just got a new laptop for Vic which came pre-loaded with Vista Home premium. Vic knows as much about computers as I know about drama, but it only took her two hours to ask if she could have XP back like her old laptop… Its a real shame that Vista has turned out the way it has as a visually attratctive but slow and overweight version of XP in drag.
I asked Vic to persist with Vista for a while and give it a chance … but the final straw came when she tried to copy her photos off her usb key … can you see why ?
I had to agree that it would be somewhat unreasonable to wait nearly 24 years for the copy to complete. This put the 6 days the DVD burn dialog told me into perspective!
