| 635075 | 2008-01-29 08:19:00 | I think MS has reduced the price of all editions of Vista (by $400 for the full version of WV Ultimate - from $1000 to $600 at DSEs!) Check out DSE's Website (search.dse.co.nz 6df&site=&w=vista+ultimate&submit.x=0&submit.y=0&submit=Go) (also note upgrades are 'reduced to clear' - and Ascent's as well. (ascent.co.nz) Still too expensive tho... A bid to boost Vista sales maybe ? :rolleyes: |

| 635077 | 2008-01-29 18:25:00 | Mum bought Vista Home Premium for me for $150 on TradeMe. :D No need to go to the shop and get offered Ultimate, or a new PC... (although that would be nice :D) | pcuser42 (130) | ||
| 635078 | 2008-01-29 18:57:00 | Mac sales are up again. Is this a tribute to the power of Vista? | R2x1 (4628) | ||
| 635079 | 2008-01-30 23:19:00 | Hmm.... thats nice. Linux has also dropped their prices. Fedora core 3 is now selling for 25c! For the most expensive distro, it will set you back a hefty $9.98c. Compare that to Vista... is Vista really worth it? Not for me :) |

| 635082 | 2008-01-31 19:54:00 | Ah, so 2 more people bought a Mac? Awesome! Doubled their sales eh!:lol: Compare that to Vista . . . is Vista really worth it? Hmmm Well personally I have 1 combined question - Why is XP still crashing, locking up, have problems, drivers still causing problems, and its been out for over 6 years and Vista is only comming up to 1 year - sound familar problems with both? I'm using both XP and vista - personally after working on a Vista PC and then going back to XP, while XP is faster in some respects it feels so :yuck: OK vista may not be for every one, but then neither is XP - ask any Linux or MAC users . |
