Some of these services, there is no hard and fast asnswer, it just depends. If you want to let windows automatically update, you will need to run the BITS for example, some people do, some people dont.

HAHAHA! that was a good one. seriously, im ranting up a storm about vista and i dont even really *hate* it, but i have a lot to say about it. a few days ago when this thread popped up i was about to thank meyou for not going off on vista as he does... i guess he just couldnt stay away.
@ seph, ok ok, you win. vista doesnt suck and every one should just buy new PCs so they can have the latest greatest thing.
in all seriousness, ive said my piece about it. if you dont agree, fine by me. vista isnt a complete pile of trash that meyou makes it out to be. im not even going to bash you if you want to run it or give you a "i told you so" if you end up hating it. in the end, i just feel it was a really big mistake on MS's part to make so many poor choices on this new OS. all i can speak for is myself, and being the kind of user i am, for me to hate the latest-and-greatest speaks a lot about vista. i just want a new OS is both worth my time and money. im yet to see some convincing evidence on that.
run Ubuntu then
LOL...that was the reaction I was hoping for.
I think you can have an opinion, but how can you have a valid opinion, when you already admitted you have never even installed the OS? You base your opinions on what other people say or what you've read. Now that's the real joke.

How that compares to the XP on this machine, with Processes: 33 |CPU Usage: 4% |Commit Charge: 368M / 1595M. The CPU bounced from 1 to 11 percent at the highest, with 4 as an average, with Xnews downloading and uTorrent on doing minimal seeding with 1 slow downloader, 5 tabs of Firefox in two windows, Outlook Express and a couple of folders open, wireless net card, and a few more small apps. It's a P4 3.4, 1G memory.
This XP has has had some tweaking, just the stuff that everyone is supposed to turn off, a '12 step program' from the net that I did last year. It would be good to see how a tweaked Vista would compare.
Well my cpu bounce around from 4 to 11 then spikes to as high as 28%.
That 60 processes includes just the task manager opened. No extra av running, disable due to upgrade of the Trend Mirco v8 not letting me pass the modem(that another matter).
No internet connection.
Just idling, like it just boot up.
This snapshot below said 58 processes that before I ticked the box on the processes tab show all processes from all users
Over the next couple of weeks between the family and work I'll will be tweaking this cpu and then the release of SP1 and it will be a great little system.
*fingers crossed*
Don't worry about the world coming to an end today.
It's already tomorrow in Australia
You are full of SHIT! I DID install the last beta version of it in the past! I quickly went back to xp.
So you don't know what the hell you are talking about!
I would not be so down on it without at least trying it first! Try asking next time if I have ever tried it before making dumb ass comments.
The AA's are WATCHING......YOU!! (And I DON'T mean Alcoholics Anonymous...either!) LOL!
