Why Vista is better then XP
Yes, I am sure with a statement like this you may call me crazy but as the guy that does the fixing when a computer crashes I can only look at the obvious facts. Some of these would be the amount of 'security related' issues due to simply be connected to the internet and I would have to say they are about half as many as with XP machines. Also, if I were to look back to when XP first came out, I had a lot more problems due to device driver incompatibility then with Vista. Quite simply there wasn't a driver and even though this was an issue with Vista as it is with any new operating system, it wasn't as prevelant most likely because the jump from the operating system prior to XP was possibly win98, winME, 2000 or NT wheras with Vista, it is more then likely the upgrade is only coming from an XP machine. All this being said, the main reason as to why I like Vista over XP is really quite simple... it's newer! This means such items like monitoring and diagnosing problems are easier due to built in features like the Reliability and Performance Monitor. Adrian Kingsley from ZDNet does a great job in explaining this.
