Who will buy Vista

[TacitBlue]

I'm already planing on it. I've been looking at what it would cost to upgrade my current machine (new MoBo and CPU) and it's really not that much. When is Vista supposed to come out anyway?

[GunnerMan]

Of course I will buy it. Here I have a 64 bit cpu just waiting for a good mainstream 64bit OS and full compatiblity for DX10 thats reason in itself.

[beaky]

I dunno about buying a brand-new MS OS... I'll probably wait and see how it turns out. Same for FS10.
Frankly, if I can figure out a way to run MS FS with Linux, I might go that route. I keep hearing good things about Linux...
whatever; for now I still need to upgrade my rig to get the most out of FS9.  ::)

my uncle was a luck few to get an exclusive to what vista has to offer, so the parts for this computer are set for vista.

Watched the Gates webcast last night and I have to say that the MS vision of the future and the role of Vista in it is truely awesome. Watching Gates using and demonstrating the various integrated elements of the 'digital decade' apparently without a script was very impressive  because he had complete control and understanding and it all came across totally naturally. A man totally involved in the heart of his business, and I never thought I'd be saying that.

Vista is much more than just another OS and as a member of the older generation I'd say to all you younger guys out there - find out more. You're the people who will be using this new technology and who will be reaping the benefits in your lives. Do yourselves a favour and get your heads out of gaming just for a little while and take a look at the big picture.

You might be surprised. I was.

I have a Q...will the users of XP still be able to use FS X? And will DirectX 10 work on systems like mine?  ???

Technology is advancing. That's why we're still not using DX7

[Dianna78sg]

I gonna buy it of course...technology is going a head,why have to stuck on old stuff... and I always make sure I'm up to date..and you could only experience full features of FS X with vista..

Atleast you have a life, unlike us sorry individuals

Lets see, I'm finally figuring out XP after building a "new" Socket A based machine, which only took me 4-5 months to sort out and get up and running as the #1 computer at home. (OK, I'm slow, but I am an official old fart so there). FX-10 and Vista will probably wait till mid '07 after I rectify my error and get an Athlon 64 mobo and cpu. Not to mention a 19" or better LCD display as well.  ???
