    I use this, and still run the same… In my opinion Windows Vista is nothing but an unstable Operating System.

  2. Rob says:

    Vista is perfectly fine. Just need the right hardware.

  3. Martin says:

    So many people complain about vista, but it runs flawlessly for me. Seriously, I don’t think it’s fair to label it “unstable” when the only “flaw” really is that it needs decent hardware.

  4. StackOverflow says:

    Agreed, the only time Vista gives trouble is when I knock my RAM loose or my old hard drive starts acting up. (I don’t have a case on my computer, hence the RAM being knocked, as well as other parts.)
