Default Re: system restore

Thank you. Do you think SP1 will change Vista so XP's simple tweaks like
reducing Restore disk usage,
and about a dozen missing tweaks from XP, will appear in Vista?

What were they thinking when the removed My Computer, My Documents and made
the navigation/address
bar in Windows Explorer more complex?! It was so easy to "go up a folder"
to return to a different subfolder
and I could name off 11 more. grrr

As so many must think equally as I do, "Why change the Interface"!? We all
learned from Windows 95
to XP that we simply had My Computer, My Document, Internet Explorer and
Recycle Bin on the desktop at all times. (yes you had to change the start
menu to classic, or know how to use the "customize desktop" in XP
and Vista to get them there......... what a joke Vista is. I see nothing
compelling about this operating system.

I was never enamored with the Media Center in XP either, that's why I bought
XP Pro. Now Vista has
a far more complex and "heavy" Media Center". It's not worth learning---
And believe me, I have learned
a lot by studying Windows since 1995.

I type all this so perhaps it gets forwarded to Microsoft's R & D. Maybe,
just maybe the head of that department will realize that "we", the general
public are terribly disappointed in Vista. If SP1 and SP2
can return Vista to look and behave like XP, then we would be happier.
Thank god XP is still on the
market until 2014!!!!

Geee I guess you'll need to add Vista to that list. Why did you decide to
stop learning?

there.

Ahhhh Please don't speak for me or the millions of others who you've never
