But if you&#8217;re thinking of buying Windows Vista (original or pirated) and install in your PC, think twice or maybe thrice or even a dozen times before doing so. Why? Apart from it&#8217;s completely revamped look of its visual style and interface, there&#8217;s nothing much different from Windows XP. And to tell you the truth, it looks more and more like Mac OS X.\u00c2 \u00c2 Here are few considerations before deciding for a change:<\/p>\n<li>The Pro<\/li>\n<ul>\n<li>Installation for Windows Vista has been improved and it&#8217;s more user-friendly. So, there should be no major problem for beginners or newbies intending to install this OS<\/li>\n<li>The introduction of Window Switcher (alt-tab), which functions just like the Expos\u00c3\u00a9 from Mac OS X, it is a way of visualizing all of your open windows and quickly finding the one you want.<\/li>\n<li>Improved visual style and windows look. It looks graphically more stunning with it&#8217;s &#8220;transparent glass&#8221; interface, wait a minute, isn&#8217;t that supposed to be Mac OS X&#8217;s interface? \ud83d\ude42<\/li>\n<li>Upgraded security functions such as the inclusion of Windows Defender and the latest AVG<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<li>The Cons<\/li>\n<ul>\n<li>Windows OS always supports 90% backward compatibility, meaning allowing software designed for older version of Windows (ie: 98, ME, 2000, XP) to work in Windows Vista. This maybe an advantage but it will end up making your PC much much slower especially if you&#8217;re running low-end systems.<\/li>\n<li>Expect some explorer.exe crashes due to the large amount of memory needed whenever you open too many folders and running other software at the same time.<\/li>\n<li>Vista is thought to be 40% more complex than XP, resulting Microsoft losing track of its codes and might release Vista incomplete. It tooks them almost 4 years just to release this OS while Apple has been consistently improving their Mac OS X.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Anyway, if you&#8217;re planning to switch to Windows Vista, wait until the first patch or service pack is introduced after it is launched in early 2007. And at the mean time, to get a feel of Vista, download <a href=\"http:\/\/www.softvisia.com\/request.php?756\">Vista Transformation Pack 6<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Well, i know most of us have been waiting for ages for Microsoft to realease it&#8217;s much boasted Windows Vista<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5],"tags":[52,65],"class_list":["post-15","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-tech-web","tag-vista","tag-windows"],"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/keemanxp.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/15","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/keemanxp.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/keemanxp.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/keemanxp.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/keemanxp.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=15"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/keemanxp.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/15\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/keemanxp.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=15"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/keemanxp.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=15"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/keemanxp.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=15"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
