People in here still deny the bloat of vista, the slow speed and crappy GUI.
Sorry guys, either you have extremely fast machines, or ... I wont say it!
However there is a hidden reason for the way vista was made. It has to do
with economics.
You cant use the same computer for too long. In the past (up till a couple
of years ago) after 6 months or even 1 year your computer was outdated and
old... but after XP, and because of the thermal roof the CPUs hit with
increasing the Mhz, the computer industry could not recycle its customers so
fast.... it was
clear that people that had a computer 2 or 3 or even 4 years old could
still use it very well with xp. This is
why I think MS was pressured by the hardware makers (because they in turn
preinstall windows on the
machines) to bloat vista up as much as possible. I think this extreme bloat
is done on purpose.... to
artificially force people to renew their computers. MS bloated with no real
reason.. I am surprised why people
cant see that simple fact.... the needs of the OS are far more than what
would be needed for the new
features added.
If the thermal problem did not exist the GHz would have increased
exponentially in the time XP existed, to 4, 8, 16, and 32 GHz.. just as the
speeds doubled in the
previous years..
but its not possible because higher frequencies make more heat.. and the
cpus would fry. It has to do with technology and physics.
So the plan was to make a new OS that would push all the computer industry
forward to sell. Yes its about money of course!
And this happened after they were able to mass produce multicore CPUs... the
solution to the thermal problem with increasing the MHZ (or Ghz). You see
with more cores you can have better cpu power but the heat does not increase
so much as it would if you increased the ghz...At that same point when dual
and now 4 cores are emerging, vista comes out bloated needs and with glass
effects, demanding new computers.
Ati and nvidia wanted in on the game.. MS probably made agreements with them
too, to make the new version of windows look good only if you had
powerful new GPUs. Its not by mistake that ATI and Nvidia wont release its
driver code so open source OS like linux can make drivers...
Because thats what MS wants in return from ati and nvidia! Make the users
need windows because with linux the drivers are not good enough,
and those os look crappy!
So for the people in here who claim vista is not bloated and slow.. they are
delusional... of course it is like this by design, because you cant hold on
to your computer for too long. You see the market must increase in numbers
of users, but a gigantic part of the market is people who change their
computer..
but with XP around for so long, and the thermal problem, the market was not
selling as much as they wanted it to.
But pay attention to what I will say now. I do not think this is bad!
Although more people will be forced to change computers and they will
put their hands in there pockets deeper... the result will be that a new
generation of far more powerful computers will emerge.
Some will have 12, 24 or even hundreds of cores in the cpu. New kinds of
huge ram and permanent memories that will replace hard disks will emerge.
This would not be possible if we had a OS that would be extremely well
designed and not bloated! lol
Of course this is not new.. this strategy has been used by Microsoft since
day one, and this is why we have so powerful computers now at so low a
price...
but with vista the change was more apparent, striking I would say, because
of the time lag between releases and the stall the chip industry had to get
around the thermal problem.
So please... understand the underlying things going on.... and at last agree
with me that vista is bloated and slow.... Because it is for a reason!
