Vista Isn't THAT Bad…

Ok so I finally installed the new Boot Camp drivers I posted about last night, and Vista is working a heck of a lot better than it was before. For one thing, the trackpad support is much better, with accidental touch detection (so typing stuff and having your palm on the pad doesn’t make the cursor go all spazzy) and other great stuff. The wifi support is superb, I can finally connect to my network without a hitch…

…But…it’s still Windows….I consider my computer to be pretty top-notch (dual core 2ghz processor, 1gb ram, nothing to sneeze at, and definitely in the upper-middle range of computer performance. However, Vista still runs as slow as a turtle while OSX is breezing by. I’m trying to not become completely biased against Windows, but gosh darnit Microsoft…you make it so hard for me! Yes, flip 3D is nice, yes Aero is pretty, but if people have to disable these things to save performance on their computer then Vista isn’t much better than XP is it? Hmm.
