moving to vista
Posted by Ian Holsman
So all I can say is UGH.
I got a dell inspiron with vista preinstalled.. and all I can say is I miss my mac.
It is such a PITA moving things over.. and I will still use my mac as my main box… but I’ll be travelling with the PC so it needs everything on it.
Why do I need the PC?
well.. I’ve changed roles inside of AOL (for those keeping notes.. I’m in Relegence), and this area is a windows shop who do stuff with .net and windows.. and i couldn’t stand the slow speed of parallels.
As for the role itself…
I’m about to play with cool toys in the information extraction area, as well as continue to play with things around hadoop and mahout.. and I can add 2 more destinations I’m required to visit. Tel-Aviv and New York. ;-)
With latest bootcamp, you could install xp and vista on macbook…
And vista sucks, better to “upgrade” to xp ;-)
