Surpassing XP, Vista will be the world's largest and most powerful computer virus. It's Codename is Longhorn, and it is manufactured by the Beast of Redmond aka Microsoft. It will try to lure people in to buying the overly priced piece of shit by stealing transparancy ideas from Mac OSX and making secure command lines similar to Linux. It will only work with certain "security enabled" monitors, so most home users will have to upgrade (again) and some notebook users will be fucked. I have a AMD 64 3200+ with 2 gigs of ram and an 80 gb HDD and I am still running Win2k, although [Debian] is my main weapon of choice. Vista is already undergoing numerous trademark lawsuits, and it will be replacing NTFS with WinFS, which means support for the FAT's may decline.

late 2006/ early 2007 Me: What's that cd you haave there? noob: Windows Vista. Me: What is your primary computer use? noob: h4xorng\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\! and web surfing. t3h 1337. Me: *breaks CD*. You will be fine with this. *Hands him win3.11 cd. noob: N0\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!

Visualize Windows XP, a perfectly fine if occasionally clunky OS. Now make it eat three times as much system resources, have stupidly high system requirements, and because that's not shitty enough throw in a Big Brother DRM scheme that's guaranteed to fuck over anyone who isnt a hardware geek. And verily, you have experienced the binary turd better known as Windows Vista.

It costs $300 and doesn't really offer anything that XP doesnt. Is it any wonder people arent jumping on the Vista bandwagon?

7. (vista) (137↑, 97↓)
The name of the upcoming version of the Microsoft Windows OS.

"Windows Vista". Did you know that Vista, in Lithuanian, means 'chicken'?

Microsoft's [suicide attempt], after years of grueling research Microsoft's top engineers determined that combining extremely expensive OS prices, too many damn versions with all except ultimate being crippled in some way, shitty compatibility, an OS with a "pretty GUI" resulting in a resource black hole which in turn cost people more money to upgrade only to discover that despite upgrading to the largest amount of memory and most expensive Processor, that due to it's being modeled on black hole physics their computers are no faster than before, they also made sure to make it difficult to use and find things, included a user agony and cruelty infliction system(commonly known as UAC), and decided that to truly piss off admins that even when running as administrator you aren't truly administrator.

Microsoft Engineer1: The tests results from the beta testers for vista are in: anger, frustration, and incidences of user on computer violence are up 300%. Microsoft Engineer2: wow that's better than predicted. Microsoft Engineer1: Yeah, and even better 50% of the test subjects committed suicide after a month of using it, another 19% went insane within one month, and another 30% switched to another OS or stopped using computers completely after a month. Microsoft Engineer2: What about the remaining 1%? Microsoft Engineer1: That is made up entirely of [masochists]. Microsoft Engineer2: Ok then we are good for release, if this doesn't kill us nothing will. Microsoft Engineers1: With our expertise there is no way this can fail.....unless of course the majority of the population suddenly starts getting off on self inflicted pain.

Microsoft's newest operating system that has strikingly familiar speeds, quirks, and errors to Windows ME. Rumored to be the fastest and most aesthetically pleasing Windows OS yet but proof of these claims have rarely been seen by users. Mostly, an advertising scheme between Microsoft and computer hardware manufacturers to get you to purchase the newest and most expensive components on the market.

example 1: We are Microsoft. You and your data will be assimilated into Windows Vista and merged with the non-backwards compatible collective. Resistance is futile. Example 2: MacOS X: Vista Aero... i am your father. Vista Aero: NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO\! MY AERO ENGINE IS COMPLETELY ORIGINAL\! AUTHENTIC, ENERGETIC, REFLECTIVE AND OPEN\! REMEMBER?\! MacOS X: Search your feelings... you know it to be true. Yeah, i use Ubuntu Linux and i'm a nerd... so fucking what?

This is used to describe any computer-based software which is poorly designed; with countless software bugs and poor performance in general. Particularly inherent to this quality is the software company's inability to fix reproducible software bugs on a timely basis or even acknowledge them; furthermore, shifting the blame on 3rd party software developers for the problems seen in the software.

Most Logitech products (particularly their newer webcams) are just like Vista.

Windows XP... with 75% more annoyances\! Yay\!

Bob: You got Vista? Joe: Yeah, but it cost me an extra $375 to run it... and it freezes all the time. You thinking about upgrading? Bob: Nah, man. I hate Mac OSX. I don't need a half assed emulation of it.

14. (vista) (10↑, 2↓)
remember Windows ME? Vista is like re-living through all that, but will probably be worse.

LOL, your vista computer crashed again. At least my Windows ME computer runs once in awhile.

An OS made by Microsoft that has more errors and malfunctions than XP, their previous OS, but can be set to be cooler-looking (although chances are that your graphics card won't be able to run MS Word with the transparency and stuff turned on). It would be better than Leopard in terms of what it can do, if it could only do those things without crashing as much as it does. Whether or not it's prettier than Leopard is debatable, but it doesn't really matter, because it's a computer program, not a piece of art. It really comes down to this: if you have a LOT patience, get Vista. If you don't want to actually do things with your computer, get Leopard. Of course, the choice is really this: get something pretty, like Vista or Leopard, or get something that works, i.e. XP.

Ted: Hey, I just got Vista today. It's got pretty colors. Fred: I have OSX. It's like Vista, except it doesn't crash. Jack: I have XP. I can do things with it, AND it doesn't crash when I do. Ted: Well... Are your windows transparent? Jack: No, but I can open them without crashing my computer. Fred: Is your monitor 42" and pretty? Does it contain your, uh, vidja card, and C-poo? Jack: No, my monitor fits through doorways, and I can upgrade my computer.

When Bill Gates went [batshit]. See [useless]. Honestly, this pile of shite won't run for longer than 10 minutes without crashing or dimming your screen for a window that says "OMG YOU JUST MOVED YOUR MOUSE ARE YOU SURE YOU WANT TO DO THIS". NOTHING is compatible with it. Unless you have shitloads of ram and an epic processor, stick with XP. IF you have shitloads of ram and an epic processor, stick with XP. Also, stfu linux fanboys, where's your .exe's? ;) INSTALL FROM THE COMMAND LINE, LEET

Person 1 (Fanboy): OMG LOOK AT HOW SLEEK AND AMAZING VISTA IS Person 2 (Common sense): It looks nice but it's unreliable as fuck. Person 1 (Fanboy): STFU ITS AMAZING IT CAME OUT AFTER XP SO IT MUST BE GOOD. Person 2 (Common sense): No, it's useless.

Windows Vista is Microsoft's upcoming operating system (OS), due to be released in December of 2006. It will be the most powerful and most technologically advanced system in history, and will integrate web security into it's core (unlike all other Microsoft Products). It will be the first system using DirectX 10, which is supposedly a big step forward in graphics technology. Halo 2 will be released ONLY for Vista, as an incentive. Also, Flight Simulator 2006 (aka [FSX]) will be released, and will unleash the next generation of simulated flight. Microsoft has received much criticism due to excessive focus on visual features, rather than performance, within Windows Vista. Also, the price of Vista Ultimate is expected to be in the appauling $200-400 range, which may possibly worsen Microsoft's low sales (due to the XBOX 360). Recently, they have received immense criticism for Microsoft's security and privacy settings, and have been accused of making spyware, known as the WGA (Windows Genuine Notification). Unfortunately, this technology will be integrated and unremovable from Vista, which also may decrease their popularity and sales. System requirements also pose an issue to many consumers, due to their lack of the latest technology, which is QUITE out of reach to most, due to price. Microsoft recommends Vista users to have Dual-Core 64-bit Processors, and at LEAST 1GB Dual-Channel DDR2 Memory, and PCI-Express Motherboards. These features are still extremely expensive at this time, and with people not having access to it, Vista will have dramatically less copies sold. Pirated copies of Windows Vista will not function, due to "genuine-technology", so millions of users from third-world countries may be stuck with Windows XP or earlier versions. Last, but certainly not least, Internet Explorer 7 will be released with Windows Vista, and is said to be "much improved, secure and optimized", however many users will not be using it due to IE's history and lack of trust for Microsoft's browser.

Tom: ...and you know how bad IE is- Joe: IE 7 is supposed to be really good\! Tom: I don't give a s**t, Firefox is better- Joe: BUT- Tom: Shut up\! Joe: Ok.... (sad) Anyway, I can't wait for FS2006, FS2004 Sucked\! Tom: I know, but your computer isn't good enough, and you can't afford Vista. Joe: Ok.... (crying) What about Halo 2? Tom: Nope Joe: Ok.... (weeping)

An Excellent OS by Microsoft who many dipshitting fucktards who have no knowledge whatsoever about kernel and system files bitch about. listen up retards, if you don't know anything about Vista, Don't bother posting it. Vista has some excellent features, notable among them is Support for DX10 API, BitLocker, Aero3D Interface, an improved security system and loads of other features. while it's indeed an incremental update when compared to windowsXP, the Support for DX10 will be the selling point here. as for the Mac Idiots who think Vista Copied MAC OS TEN, get a fucking life\! I am not a Microsoft Fanboy and i disagree with many decisions they've made so far but Vista is 2x Better than OS TEN any fucking day, any fucking time, for starters it ACTUALLY supports hardware and software and you aren't left with what Apple thinks is best for you. as for bad drivers for Vista, that's not MS's Fault, Vista was in Beta1,2 and then it was released as RTM. if you want to blame someone, blame companies like Creative, LinkSys, Netgear and others. Bottomline is all the dipshits who're calling Vista Virus Spyware and what not can go fuck themselfs. because they don't know Jackshit and the only reason why they're even writing it because it's "t3h c00lz"

Vista has many versions with Start being the most stripped down and Ultimate Being the most expensive.
