I've done several 'downgrades' for people who wanted XP instead. Aside from being funky to work with and the overblown, unnecessary, unhelpful 'security' crap, it's a resource hog and runs like molasses on machines that should zip.
I've not seen anything yet about Windows 7... but I won't be eager to jump on that either, until I see for myself that it truly is better than XP.
Quote:Anyone using Norton's Antivirus 2009 should also know that it has a built in firewall that will FUCK UP your whole system if you have windows, norton or mcafee firewalls installed. They conflict and you'll find your pc running slow as shit and getting C++ errors all the time. Crashing and rebooting all on it's own.Uh yeah... MacAfee and Norton can both mess your system up bigtime, without providing any better protection than most standard anti-virus programs. I've had to remove MacAfee and Norton countless times to solve networking/internet access problems. Lame!
