Thread: Would Microsoft get Vista out of market?

I recently heard that Bill Gates was not happy with the new Window (Vista). He himself liked XP more then Vista and also said that Vista could have been much better. I don't know what is the point to get a product out in market when its makers are not happy with it themselves. Do you think that microsoft would bet Vista out of market?

If that is true, it is too late for that. Already there are a lot of licenses sold.

They would come up with service packs and tweaks to make it work better.

Well i hope that they come up because i dont see much positive reviews about this one on my website except there Aero thing.

Probably this could be just another rumour on microsoft, as there were around lakhs and lakhs of vista has been sold worldwide, how can he get it out, what will happen to those who used. Moreover, they are planning to stop support for xp and there have been great debate going on on that and how can he stop both!

I think this is normal that initially the product has some bugs & problems.....but vista is having a lil over.........the main problem is with the processing speed........they said 512mb ram will do........but i think it runs smoothly on 2gig or high......i think they will come with some updates & will not close the product for sure.

BTW i'm waiting for the XP sp3 coming in mid of this year....XP rocks

512 MB RAM will not do for Vista - minimum is 1 GB.

XP SP3 is already out and I have already installed it on my home PC. I posted a thread here in 'Computer Software' forum asking for feedback; but I did not get any. I decided to give it a try myself.

well few moths bak i read on MS site that they gonna pose XP SP3 in mid 08........there are actually the so called XP SP3 also available (developed by some personal geeks )......so i have't checked the MS site after that......but its out now.....& m going for it

XP Service Pack 3 is available right now and it would be good to download and use it. I also tried to download it from Microsoft Site but i am getting veyr low speed if you have normal download speed with no problem then please let me know.

I did not face problems. The first part of the download is the MSI which is just the installer. Once that is downloaded, you launch it. Afterwards it starts downloading and (simultaneously) installing the bigger pieces (the components).

I heard that Microsoft is on on getting its new Windows 7 out which is also known as Veena. I think it would be much better then this one.

I dont think there are any chances that Microsoft would get Vista out of Market any time soon but i am sure that they would be getting a new windows in market very soon.
