XP -> Vista -> XP -> Vista -> XP
I had to install a new hard drive in my primary Desktop system today. It’s been a couple of months since my Vista to XP “side grade”, so I deiced to install Vista back on my system, just to give it another look.
Three hours… I had Vista on my system for three hours before I had to go back to XP. I tried so hard, I really did, but in the end the first time I right-clicked on a gigabyte+ file on one of my servers and had to wait for 3 minutes for the menu to come up I knew I could not keep it.
I even stopped missing the Vista start menu, though the Vista Side Bar still seemed to appeal to me, but not enough to make me put up the all the issues I still had on my system.
But even now, composing this message in the safe and warm bosom of XP, I realize what I really want. I want a Mac.
If you think I’m odd because I can’t make up my mind of what OS to use, you should see me at Baskin-Robbins…
