Wow, you have no idea what you're talking about...nothing you said is true.

UAC drove me nuts

Just turn it off...

The machine IS a hog, even if they say it is more efficient, it can be even more so.

How is it a hog? What brings you to this conclusion?

Its not even multi threaded.

What are you talking about? Of course it's multithreaded...MS operating systems have been multithreaded since Windows NT/2000

Vista is a big steaming load. I got ultimate off of my msdn account and after a few weeks i went back to xp pro. Vista was just so hard to get to work right. UAC drove me nuts, The machine IS a hog, even if they say it is more efficient, it can be even more so. Its not even multi threaded. In a day where almost all new cpus are dual core or better it only makes sense to make the os multi threaded. I can't speak for C++ but I know in Java its not as impossible as developers make it out to be.

You know you can disable UAC right Vista is running decently on my computer I also got it the other way.

You have an old CPU, and 1gb of ram. What do you expect.

i agree on the RAM, but an Opteron 165 isn't old... its dual core... just because its an outdated socket, its not necessarily old...

I have a way older cpu and a gig of ram and everything runs smooth an perfect i would kill to have dual core would literally cut jobs such as transcoding in half.

Vista runs flawlessly on my stepfathers 1.6ghz C2D and 1gb memory...with Aero and everything.
