2 out of 5 stars NOT WORTH THE PRICE!   November 25, 2008
The CD was a little more than "slightly used". It would not upgrade in either of my computers even though my machines met all of the requirements. Now I'm stuck with a $50.00 useless CD. I can't even give it away. Literally.


5 out of 5 stars Vista is excellent   October 24, 2008
i have built three computers in the last 15 months. all running Vista [home basic and premium] using both Intel and AMD chipsets. no hardware issues. even i have been very happy with Windows XP, i prefer Vista mainly because of the features/functions Vista offers [sleep function and automatically installing drivers for most hardwares--LAN, graphic card, printer, scanner, etc.]. i can't understand why so many people [of course, mainly the Mac supporters] hate Microsoft products.


1 out of 5 stars Sorry to see XP go...   September 12, 2008
I installed this after doing everything that I was supposed to do before installation. It messed up my computer and I had to have XP reinstalled, now you can't buy XP anymore and I am sorry to see it go. Vista, I wish you would go.


5 out of 5 stars I installed it on my MacBook Pro under Boot Camp. Runs really fast!   April 7, 2008

I didn't take off stars for Basic's lack of features, unlike other reviewers, because Microsoft advertised Basic without them. You can't fault Basic for things that you were forewarned on before buying it. Instead, I awarded it five stars because of its flawless adherence to the capabilities I was told it has.

I find that most people don't use any of Vista's features that aren't on Basic. For most people, Windows Vista Home Basic is all they need but they just don't want to have the bottom-of-the-line product. I found it to be very proficient at handling the tasks even computer nerds do.

Believe it or not, Windows Aero can be done without. Basic's graphics are good, too, and they look much better than XP's.

Overall, this product will fill the needs of the vast majority of users, and it's a cost-effective way to stay updated with the latest technology. I'm very pleased with it.



4 out of 5 stars Windows Vista   April 1, 2008
Windows Vista Home Basic uses my Celeron D based computer fast with software for Dual Processor. I just had to make the folders usable in the beginning of Vista use...
