but after doing that you will have Windows Vista SP1 because they both shares the same sourcecode seriously even Windows Server 2008 says it is SP1 and the build no. 6001.. the same thing.
some of you that may have toght that Windows Server 2008 is performing better than Vista was because those services and stuff being disabled but enabling those things you will have Windows Vista SP1 + server stuff.
So, what’s the point, really?
Dreyfus .. even tough you're 100% correct there is always one thing that Vista can't beat: Hyper-V :)
WEll you're right, but that's only IF you turn on everything and make it like Vista SP1. This gives you the option not to do all that.
Like if you don't want sidebar etc, You don't have to turn it on.
Personally I don't have a problem with Vista. I used it for a few days on a laptop and liked it over my old XP SP3 system. I'm just waiting to save enough money to make a new desktop and go x64.
There are a lot of things Vista doesn't have for a developer / IT: Hyper-V, IIS with multiple websites, roles, services, administration...
This a violation of the EULA, a complete lack of common sense and total waste of money (if you buying it legally).
