After a year of running Vista on my Sony Dual core laptop, I am about to reinstall it and put Microsoft Windows XP back on the laptop.  I have had more issues with crashes and software not doing what I wanted so I am removing Vista. What most people forget is Windows XP Pro is now a mature operating system that has been around a long time. The bugs are long out and the security is working real well.

Vista still has bugs even after SP1 and a lot of drivers seem unstable. Their does not seem to be an end to this coming soon.

Well over the last year I have been playing with Microsoft’s one note at work and at home. I have decided the product just does not work for me. I will be converting all my work files from one note to pdf files so I have them. I have already converted all my home files.

The product is really robust. It allows you to store email info, web pages, notes and many other objects all in the same area. The problem I have is that it just seems to take way too much time to setup and maintain this system for me. Unfortunately these days I do not have that  much free time to maintain things.

I am switching to a pdf based filling system which is bound to make my life easier.
