Comment on Why Windows Vista (SP1+) is Better Than Windows 7 by Charlie

I, too, am disappointed with Win7. And why did they get rid of the gadget bar? Now, the gadgets cover everything up. Not being able star rate photos in the photo viewer is something I could do in Vista but now can’t in Win7. I miss Vista. Apple marketing has got Microsoft doing nonsensical things the same way American car companies took great features away from their cars to be more like the German and Japanese companies.

thank you for the article i have been using vista for years i did not care for 7 in the betas or the final retail build. I wish microsoft would release a sp3 for vista including trim support for us if they did id stick to vista id buy a new copy if i had to just to use it 8 is garbage how do you navigate its a nightmare for windows veterans and other people have noticed to the random crashes that 7 does for the most part when vista crashes ive noticed its because you have an actual hardware problem simple solution buy quality products not quantity. Windows media player 12 i like the fact that it actually works it has the codecs but your right the layout sucks however microsoft could easily integrate the codecs into windows media player 12 if they wanted to the only other thing needed for vista is that nice feature 7 has where you can burn the contents of an iso to a disk saving you the time for having to installing third party software eg. imgburn(works fantastically actually) and i love the command prompt in vista i write a whole tone of batch files to get things done quickly great article tho but you forgot to mention the horrible crashes 7 faces lol. Ive talked to other people who have mentioned that too and so they will not use 7 to write programs too unstable. Long Live Vista

Comment on Is WPA/WPA2 Vulnerable to Brute Force? by Samuel

Ken,

It depends on the algorithm used to perform the encryption. PDFs have a much more complex algorithm than, say, ZIP files do. So, you might be able to achieve 100k pw/s with a ZIP file, but I seriously doubt it with a WPA capture file, or a PDF.

Comment on Why I Still Avoid Windows Vista’s UAC by Samuel

Samuel — Tue, 13 Mar 2012 18:21:08 +0000

I once looked into those alternatives. You know what, though? I discovered that it is easier to just deal with a malware incident than with incessant UAC prompts since they do very little to stop an infestation anyway. An end user would need to understand what they’re doing in order to benefit from UAC. It’s nice in theory, but in practice it just doesn’t do much good. It’s still the first thing I disable on Windows Vista and Windows 7 — right along with taskbar grouping. :)

Comment on Why Windows Vista (SP1+) is Better Than Windows 7 by Samuel

Ultimate strands are fantastic. In my humble opinion it is the best graphic design work I’ve seen from Microsoft ever before. Presently, I have Vista installed on multiple Crucial M4 SSDs and I am concerned about TRIM support. There is no 100% definitive answer on whether Vista SP2 supports TRIM or not. A senior engineer at Crucial informed me that Vista’s SP2 introduced TRIM support, however, I don’t have any official Microsoft documentation to prove it. So, we’ll see. I am still lookin’.

Thanks Ian and Dan for your input.

I hope you are not angry. I actually forgot what the original topic was about (what else I might add to your list in this article)…
I wasn’t really trying to sound intelligent in the previous post…I just wanted to avoid looking dumb (you have so many “big words” up there!)

Um, ah, everything you mentioned is true. I also hate how the “Classic” features were removed. I think it’s more than a coincidence that the Classic Start Menu, Classic Control Panel option, and the Windows Classic theme are all missing from Windows 7 (for no apparent reason besides to give it a “new” feel).

I apologize for ranting in the previous post, I was not trying to. You have much more experience with Vista and 7 than I do, and I wasn’t trying to point out certain things (even ones that you already mentioned!) I was just hoping that someone would see it.

And I agree 100%, the Ultimate Strands are much better!!
Ian.
