How many of you regret using Vista?


I hope I'm not alone here, but man i hate this OS. How the hell do I, the only user on the computer and the only administrator, not have enough access to delete a file? Its ridiculous.

I don't like it. All it really seems like is a pretty upgrade, not any functionality. I'll stick with linux.

I have vista premium (or whatever the fuck the fancy dancy version is calleD) and although it hasn't given me any problems the run time is just slower than XP for everything. I think I'm going to install XP at least till vistas been out a little while longer.
