Right ..they had antivirus in Sp2 but it never worked so if they Put Antivirus in Vista then they got no chance of anyone buying it ..i dont trust bill gates so i wont trust his antivirus so from what i am hearing XP is a lot better and a lot more customizable and ive herd with vista you are being watched all the time on what you do on vista with is going pasted privacy rights Bill gates wants to release vista for free .or even Linux make a XP or Vista Based os for us to use and then dont bother with bill gates

ATI Usability Feedback: This is your opportunity to provide us with feedback that will help improve software and driver usability


ATI is one of the first graphic providers to make a 64-bit driver that supports the Longhorn Display Driver Model (LDDM) – the Microsoft Vista revolutionary graphic driver standard – as well as the first to provide LDDM drivers for integrated graphics processors. By making LDDM drivers available more than a full year prior to Windows Vista release, ATI provides developers with a stable, feature-enabled and performance-optimized platform for application development. ATI is also the first to provide Catalyst® Windows Vista driver feedback via our Catalyst® Crew Feedback program.

Well M$ will NOT get away with allowing only the Windows Defender as the only AV. If the Euro Commission stopped them from pre-packaging WMP and IE what makes them think that they will allow this?

Same thing with the FTC here in the States. That will NOT promote competition. That will cause a monopoly. Which is what we are here to prevent. I do not see this being a final answer. I see this choice being changed real quick. No way the AV companies will allow for such a thing.

Lol I was just reading some things about vista and MS still says you will still need at least a 3.0 GHZ processor and recommended 1 GB ram. I thought they would have lowered it by now since its closer to being completed.

LOL!! I don't even think there are that many 64bit processors that are 3.0 ghz yet.

edit: unless they are talking about 3.0 ghz for pentium and 3000+ for amd.

I think they speak about Intel P4...

"3.0 GHz Intel or equivalent AMD processor"
