<p>Vista is horrible, I have never seen such an over-hyped piece of garbage in my life, and dual boot is the best option.</p>
<p>I have Linux on my desktop and XP on my laptop, it would essentially be the same thing on one computer if you were to get ubuntu.</p>
<p>how does ubuntu works? where do i get more info? thanks</p>
<p>ubuntu is a version of linux, which is a free geeky alternative to windows.</p>

<p>I really don't see the problem with Vista. I personally prefer linux anyway, but I don't understand what is with all the hate. My computer has ran much smoother on it than on xp.</p>
<p>did your XP have SP 2? it makes a big difference.</p>
<p>Xp Sp 2 .</p>
<p>my problem with vista is that the visual features use up too much memory. i want efficiency, not some artsy interface.</p>
<p>Well the first thing I did was turn that off!</p>
