Well, it's official.
DB likes Vista.
Why?
Well, it's stable, powerful, the DRM isn't a problem, and it has good compatibillity.
I mean, at first the GUI was strange (I had it set to Windows 98 for a week or two), but it grows on you.
And it has a really interesting feature (I believe this was asked in another topic: "How do I turn off the music in Cave Story, so I can jam to my own tunes?" (Paraphrased)). Well, simply put, get Vista. It's volume conrtol lets you do it on a per-program basis. So, instead of the (albeit cute and whimisical) beep-tone music, I listen to Living Dead Girl and XO.
There are only 2 flaws I've seen with regards to CS/Vista compatibility:
- The volume button in CS gives an error message (not too bad)
- Vista doesn't trust CS at first. I turned off the tattle-tale user account control to get rid of the message.
So, yeah. Vista = good.
DB's system: 4 GB ram, lame prosessor.
