So it's like XP. I really loved XP and hated when Vista came out. I personally didn't like Vista only because it lagged with my computer. It was horrible.
I found a laptop that is 479 and comes with a printer, bag and 4 Gigs. I am thinking of buying it when I get my next paycheck. I have saved up money. |

To be honest. I have never even heard of an ASUS.
I am glad to hear it's better than Vista too. I really don't like Vista. My bragging uncle (LOL) works with Windows/PC at his work and preferred XP. |

7 is basically Vista that they worked the bugs out of... it runs smoother/faster... and a lot of the changes they tried with Vista they polished up for 7.... set up wise 7 is very much like Vista... but definitely runs faster, and doesn't give you obnoxious warnings every 5 minutes and has a couple nifty new features _________________

It was the video. It wasn't Sony that was screwing up. I accidently clicked on a older vid I had been working on and it went faster and didn't freeze. So I copied and pasted my other clips to a new one and it is working a lot faster!
Thank God for that. though I still do need a new computer. Lmao. |
