Is vista stable enough to replace my xpp right now? I'm going to format soon. I know little about vista currently. tks.

no, its only Beta 1, many features are disabled or not even built into it,

im guessing your not a beta 1 tester , so you shouldnt even have it anyway...

You're still better off running XP for now, or hold off and if we testers get whatever will come out of PDC, get the interim pre-beta 2 build.

Vista B1 works kind of sluggishly, but relatively stable compared to the older leaked builds and in the end still a very incomplete piece of work that has its share of problems...

I'd wait for the Release Candidates at least for stability...

Beta 2 will be better with more features, but still not aimed for stability.

Until then, Vista is exactly the kind of OS I'd run on an experimental partition or inside VMWare.

Lets face it, vista is all over the internet, if he decides to donwload it then it's his decision, i couldn't care if he got it illegally, but my personal view is that - what's the point?.. im sticking with xp now, for a very long time.. m$ will stick loads of rubbish copy protection crap in vista and i am happy with my computer as it is.

i say **** longhorn/vista.

How do you know how the person got it? Maybe they are a beta tester but just wanted to make sure about installing it 1st from people who are using it. You don't know and who cares anyway. People will get it one way or another.

If I wanted to judge from posts, compare this persons thousands of posts compared to yours and I'd say they have more experince than you do here and are most likely a beta tester.
