A year with Windows Vista

'Twas in the spring of 2008 when I first laid my hands on Windows Vista a little bit doubtful, I should confess, by paying too much attention to the misinformation on the Web and mainstream media always hungry for tabloid headlines. Yet, when I was pleasantly surprised by the elegance, agility and the whole user experience provided by Windows Vista I decided to charge against the rumor mill and this blog was born! Installed on a Sony Vaio ("Yes, you can run a lot of new—and old—software") it has been running smoothly and efficiently, considering that I only have 3.67 GB free on the primary partition where I'm running this great OS, proof that Vista handles very efficiently whatever resources are available. I can run everything I used to run in Windows XP (for 6 years) and, unless I buy another PC with Windows 7, I believe I will stick to Vista for a long time to come. For starters, Windows 7 is to Windows Vista what Windows XP was to Windows 2000.
