Tiger’s Top Ten Reasons To Switch To Vista
As If You Needed A Reason.
Vista is the biggest, baddest operating system on the block this year, and you can’t wait to get your hands on it. If you’ve been having a few reservations, here’s some food for thought: Tiger’s ten best reasons why you should switch to Vista.
1. Security.
Windows Vista takes security to a whole new level. With a new two-way firewall, User Account Control, and advanced BitLocker data encryption your operating system has never been this secure.
2. Internet Explorer 7.
Internet Explorer has gotten a complete makeover. Tabbed Browsing, Anti-phishing protection and “Protected Mode” increase system security as parts of this exciting new browser.
3. Eye Candy.
Vista’s Aero Glass interface features transparent windows, 3D rendering and dynamic animations to create a Windows experience unlike anything you’ve seen.
4. Better Updates.
Windows Update is fully integrated into the operating system. Now Windows keeps your machine up to date without you having to manage anything.
5. Parental Controls.
This new family safety feature makes it easier to monitor your children’s computer use. You decide the level of protection and control what’s right for your family.
6. Backups.
Sleep Soundly knowing your data is safe thanks to Vista’s vastly improved backup utility.
7. System Restore.
Did a faulty or incompatible program just crash your system? No problem! Just use Vista’s updated System Restore utility and roll your computer back to its last functioning state. This function is also easier to use than ever before.
8. Peer-to-Peer Collaboration.
Work together with Vista’s peer-to-peer technology. Form spontaineous work groups, present applications and even post “handouts” for others to review. Vista makes collaboration easy.
9. Media Friendly.
Crop, touch up, and edit those old family pictures using Vista’s built-in Photo Gallery. Add in Media Player 11’s library indexing options and Windows has never been this media friendly.
10. Desktop Search.
Search you local computer or across your entire Vista computer network with the robust new Search function found on the Widnows Vista Start menu.

I bought a brand new computer less than a year ago which had Windows Vista installed. I gave it a try for as long as I could. About 2 months ago I unhooked that computer and went back to my old computer which has Windows XP Media Center. Vista is horrible!!
