Vista Aero?

Sparky · 30 Apr 2007 at 22:27

Am i right in thinking not all the Vista versions come with Aero?If so which is the cheapest one with it?

Peve · 30 Apr 2007 at 22:32

Home Premium is the cheapest with Aero as Home Basic does not have it built in.

Thankyou

Stay away from basic at all costs

Do people like Aero? I have Vista Ultimate and i turned it off, fancy to start with but ultimately pointless unless you are into the whole eye candy desktop thing.

Well it's just nicer to look at and have on if you can.

aero basic and windows classic are just too ugly to use everyday. aero isn't great but it's the least worst of all three.

Not really my cup of tea either but it doesn't affect performance whatsoever, so why not leave it on?

I like it. Looks funkeh!

It becomes annoying over time. Especially the translucency.

I found Aero a bit of a headache, don't like things swooshing in and out :rolleyes:
