Tiger

Why, it doesn’t come with annoying features. [Unlike Vista] It’s more stable, and [In my opinion] easier to use.

Nah, i didn't like Win ME Second Edition much. (Code name: Tiger)
Nor do i like Vista..it's just a fancy GUI job that they've been doing.
Only it doesn't drain the CPU. It's downloadable as a "shell"
that you can add to your Win XP version without having to dl
Vista itself. --> http://en.crystalxp.net/bricopack.php <-- (Hmm...DeJaVu)
But as i said, it's only a fancy GUI job. No actual codes
have been re-written and as another thread say's; They keep everything
and just pile up alot of crap files and such that doesn't even need to be
there. No, i say THANK GOD for Linus Torvald and his brilliant mind!

Linux is the best OS i've ever tried, and im sticking with it from now on.

I don't think the Tiger is meant for Windows Millennium Edition rather it is for Mac OS X {Tiger}

And Micro$oft simply copied the features from there...

Mac OS X Tiger Simply Rocks Because it is based on UNIX.

Many, many of Microsoft's ideas have been copied from Apple - so if you want the future, choose Apple, if you want lots of software [+bugs ] choose Microsoft, if you want Security, Reliability, and Value then choose Linux.

Err, Vista is in beta. You can't rate it on how stable it is untill it is out of beta really :/

Still, I use Ubuntu and I love it.

Though if I had to choose between Tiger and Vista, Vista all the way. I don't like Apple.

Gotta go with Vista. It's not just a GUI makeover. There are tons of new features, and new security. I love it so far.

I've always wanted to try Vista, but I like Microsoft's stuff.

I think I'll wait 'til I get a new PC, then I'll get Vista with it.

I agree, I love my MAC its so much more optimized and stable than my windows pc.

It even runs call of duty and doom 3, its the best OS i've seen.

Vista is so hellishly system thirsty it wont be worth going near.

Yeah..

I know you can become a beta for Vista, however.. you have to have a paid subscription in place. I hope they have all there security issues fixed this time before the release.
