We don’t see cars running a 3cylinder engine, or pumping out a 85hp motor anymore for a reason. There is better and faster technology there for a reason.
Technology is there for cheaper faster hardware. The software it uses should utilize those benefits. Why have 2gb of ram on your system if your OS is Windows 2k and can’t even benefit from that much ram?
This is the same migration from 2k-XP people complained oooOOOoOoO its just a different look, I’ll stick to my compatible system.
Of course older machines have conflicts as they weren’t built to handle Vista, same with older software. However if you have the proper drivers/proper hardware you shouldn’t have one problem with it theoretically.
The only problem I’ve had was with drivers, and wham April 14th Dell released my laptops entire driver pack and it works flawlessly. However I have since reverted back to XP simply because some of my software isn’t compatible yet.
There will always be rants and raves, and I guarentee until SP1 most people will continue to bash it. Hell people still hate on XP even with the constant updates and SP’s… ah well it’s the way of life these days.
