XP vs Vista! (Linux?)

by inflix8 • 16 Nov 2007, 17:43 • Journals
Hi I'm gonna reinstall my computer today and I'm in wondering if I'm gonna have vista or xp on my system.
I most use my computer for movie making and gaming so whats best(fastest and stablest) 64 bits Vista or 32bits xp i heard that vista is bad when you handle codec's. dose there exist any movie making programs on Linux?
And yes my English is bad but i hope i people can understand me unlike those random polish dudes (me whant pro 125 fps now) =D

linux movie orientated apps:

avidemux (virtualdub clone)
kino
LiVES
Cinelerra
blender (models/animation...)


anyway, xp > vista, by a longshot

linux is an... "aquired taste"

Not if you actually want to play/work instead of setting up your O/S. Afaik linux has better openGL support, but no ventrilo and tbfh its a bitch compared to the noob plug and play of XP.

No, only trough wine which means you need a hardware mixer. As I said before if you want to plug and play with good performance: XP

If you dont mind spending hours on your o/s linux is your pick.

If you have a nice PC then go for vista, it looks better.

But choose 32bit. I chose 64 and regret it because it sometimes lacks good drivers.

fluxbox / blackbox > any desktop enviroment on any OS

Vista sux atm.
It's justl ike XP.
You gotta wait several years till there's a bit security.
It's still babyVista and gotta grow up.

XP is a bit secured now after all those updates and stuff.
Take XP now and let the Noobs take Vista to find out all those bugs.
