Vista won't work with regionless DVD drives

--- Quote from: H_TeXMeX_H ---Wow ... yet another reason not to switch ... maybe we should look for reasons to switch ... there are far fewer of them
I mean I want an Athlon for my next computer (it seems to be superior to a comparably priced intel chip) ... is Gates really going to force me to get an Intel instead ? ... only if I buy Vista

no. gates will force you to go a64.;)
MarathoN:
Bah. That's just too expensive, because that requires a whole new computer. :rolleyes:
H_TeXMeX_H:
Actually if you look it up on google, Vista does work with Athlons ... but I changed my mind about Athlons for one reason ... 'Intel processors have a slowdown/shutdown circuit that will keep it from overheating.' ... most Athlons don't ... well unless you have your motherboard set up so it cuts the power to the AMD processor before it burns ... Intel on the other hand just slows the processor speed ... a much better solution in my opinion.

Note that overheating is only an issue if you overclock, or you live on Venus, or think heatsinks are 'so 1999'.
H_TeXMeX_H:
Well you gotta overclock ... I mean why not overclock ? ... ok then let's put it this way ... Intels are probably better for overclocking ...
