Window Vista Ultimate

 Windows Vista Ultimate

The Good: 

  • Does improve some features within Windows XP
  • Fewer system crashes than Windows XP
  • Offers better built-in support options

The bad:

  • Does not put search on the desktop (it’s buried within applications, within the Start Menu)
  • Optimised only for the Microsoft Windows ecosystem (for example, RSS feeds from Internet Explorer 7 get preferential treatment)
  • There’s simply too much and not all of it is implemented properly
  • No new software yet written exclusively for Windows Vista
  • Too many editions

The bottomline:

Windows Vista is essentially warmed-over Windows XP. If you’re currently happy with Windows XP SP2, we see no compelling reason to upgrade. On the other hand, if you need a new computer right now, Windows Vista is stable enough for everyday use.
