I called the tech guy and he said I can configure my dell to not ship with Vista, even though it wasnt on the configuration page. Now I've got a dell with vista on it. Dell said they knew nothing about my call and the guy saying I can have my dell without vista. I clicked i do not accept to the EULA, will that make a differnce if I send it back to them?

Or worse come to worse, have them send you reinstallation CDs. I dont think they're shipping Vista installation cd's yet.

some of my experience is,the system will have Vista os when the custome request for use it. If let's say having problem to use vista,forget about it cause you doesn't know to many patch,security and so on not been able to install all the suxs original also piracy SOFTWARE.

Vista will moving smoothly in even 3 or 6 month this year,then we can use the Vista without thinking any problem will come afterwards..

Trust it and u can feel it..

I don't think Vista will be any better than XP or ME...It's always going to have problems, although it probably will get better in time...The question is, how many customers are going to care after all the garbage they put up with when it first came out? Especially those who didn't want it in the first place.
