I am totally stressed trying to fix this friggin thing (speed wise). I know it's my fault but if I want to use Hotmail as my Email, It's my prerogative! With Vista, if you resize a pic, you must then attach it to an Email. Big time saver, you say. However, Microsuck does not want us to use Hotmail, so it opens their Email for you! Joy! And there is no way to get it (the pic) to the Hotmail; if there is I apologize.

Also, my 3 month old computer is slow as my win98 machine, in spite of all updates and auto-tuneup/antivirus/antiphishing/high security crap. Spent 5 hours trying to fix the performance issue, making restore points/ changes and other improvements recommended by HP customer service including disabling menu transparency and other things that a dual core 2GB "entertainment" laptop should be able to do while I'm watching a recorded HDTV show. Mind you, I don't "game", gamble, look at porn or do anything that taxes the system.

My advice if you are considering Vista: get the extended warranty, then you can microwave your computer 2 seconds and get a new one. As a last resort, of course (seriously).

Thanks for listening and for any help. Hope this saves someone from VISTA. Get a Mac.
