Despite underwhelming consumers and being snubbed by enterprises,
Windows Vista's numbers keep growing, with Microsoft Corp. saying
Thursday that it has now shipped *88 million copies* of the operating
system, almost double the number of copies of XP in the same amount of
time at its launch.
The 88 million figure mostly includes Vista-installed PCs bought by
consumers and small businesses,
JimH purchased Vista thinking it was great and the first thing he wanted
to do is figure out a way to tweak it so it wouldn't run so slow. It
just goes to show you PT Barnum was correct.
Hey dummy, I did not purchase Vista. I purchased a laptop with Vista for
my son.
BTW: Why are you so concerned about what decisions other people make?
What business is it of yours Jim Gallow, I mean Reggie? You are a regular
busybody.
We are just discussing Vista in general, you only come up in passing
because you mentioned your computer and you wanted to try to tweak it to
speed it up and free up resources.
