An OS question.

[BobGnarly]

I'm not sure why people are experiencing so many headaches with Vista64. I have used many different peripherals with Vista64 with no issues. 3 different keyboards, 1 steering wheel, 3 different mice, many different games, many different apps, etc.

Also Microsoft is not in control of manufacturer's drivers. Vista has been out for about 2 years, so the manufacturers have had enough time to develop drivers for Vista. So if your Super Fragger Keyboard Xtreme from Acme Company doesn't work in Vista64, blame Acme Company.

I guess it helps to not be a total retard too. So basically it goes like this:

if Total Retard=1
then XP;
end if

if Total Retard=0
then Vista64;
end if

I'm sure I won't be alone in taking a little umbrage at your assertion, even given its clever form. I suppose I could respond with something like:

If VistaFanboi=1 then
Vista;
else
XP;
endif

or

If MyPersonalExperienceLeadsMeToBelieveXPIsSuperiorFo rGaming=1 then
XP;
else
WhoKnows?;
endif

but instead I will just suggest to you that perhaps your 3 mice and a steering wheel aren't the final metric by which everybody measures driver stability, or ultimately, OS desirability.

Lastly, if I've personally had a lesser experience with Vista than XP, I don't care who's at fault, I'm going with XP. It's not a matter of blame, it's a matter of which is going to work better for me. Right now, that's XP. When Vista works as well, I'm there.
