More resources consumed and doubts to effective advances… I am still a fan of Windows 98… seems to be a small enough Os, runs smoothly and does most everything…
On Windows Vista… a friend has one of those huge HP 19inch screen laptops… 2 hard drives and just about every feature one could ask for… Vista ran very smoothly on her computer as it had 2 gb ram and a fast enough cpu/gpu she begged me to downgrade the computer to Windows XP… after a few hours of playing around on vista with funny boxes jumping up all over the place I clearly understood why… It is now running smoothly on windows XP… for the past years that I have used XP I have been pretty happy with it…
Thanks again for the article… yes… there is seemingly no reason to upgrade to Vista… yet for those that buy a new computer with Vista pre-installed… they too may consider a downgrade to XP.â€

- Free software permits students to learn how software works because they have access to the source code of the software.
- At a deeper level, Free software encourage people to be good citizens and good neighbors — to cooperate with others who need their help. In the area of computers, this means teaching them to share software.
Looking at the current situation, we still do not know how much OS has been using in Cambodia? By the way, it is hard for Cambodian users to use OS quickly. Most Cambodian users have been using Microsoft other than OS. How Do You Think?

My system is Intel 2Duo core and basic Vista. I can tell you that if you are looking for doing things as you used do on XP then you can’t do a thing with Vista. And file that sent as attachment on MS word can’t be retrieved on Vista either. Think it is better use XP if you want everything you use to do on XP
