Hi all.
I'm getting very closed to having to make a decision on a new computer and
again, I am presented with a dilemma . Which OS to get!.
I just love XP Home but believe that this is not going to be supported after
2008, so I need to choose between VISTA, or XP Media Center computers.
I have JAWS Professional version 8 and intend to upgrade to version 9, so
neither should present too many access issues for me.
I like Packard Bell computers and indeed, have purchased three of them in
the past. I've been told that Hewlett Packard is another good brand, so
I'll probably go for either of these.
I use my computer, quite a lot for recording BBC Radio Scotland and BBC
Radio 2 shows as well as burning this material, using either Easy CD creator
or Nero onto CD or DVD's . I also like to use a SoundBlaster External Sound
Card, to attach my computer to an AV unit. Other items, such as the Zoom
Recorder and Olympus DS50 as well as External Hard Drives, are all regular
visitors to my computer.
I have been told that VISTA will not allow me to use many of these items, so
if this is the case, then I'll go for the Media Center operating system.
Can anyone please let me know if any of my above tasks would be limited or
prohibited by VISTA please.
Still very much seeking a recommendation from more experienced users into
brand and type of computer.
Looking forward to a full in-box, hahaha.
Andy.
