Neat new feature in Vista

[Q]

So last night I discovered that Vista will allow you to create/resize/remove hard drive partitions on the fly while the OS is up and running. It's pretty darn cool.

that is really cool.

i rally like vista. having used osx, xp, and linux, i'd rate it highly. i still think it's far to expensive though.

[Q]

You can attach that statement to pretty much every Microsoft product.

I still have issues with vista. mostly in certain applications that just don't want to run properly.

of course, the 3rd party software vendors say the problem is with vista. I say it's with vendors who don't update their shit.

It's probably some of both :bg:.

i have had 0 problems with applications in vista, and i'm even running 64 bit on a laptop.

I haven't done much gaming on it, other than the stuff i'm developing, but things like blender, maya, sound forge, visual studio, subversion, gimp, photoshop, and all my hardware drivers work perfectly.

I guess there was one application that didn't work right on vista. It happened to be my baseball game. It crashed without feedback on vista because it wrote logs to it's own application directory while loading content. As the developer i will say shame on me for writing logs there. Vista really wasn't to blame, just my own bad practice.
