Microsoft Windows Vista - Why is This Operating System So Special? And Your Basic Computer Training

Our Computer Basic Training lesson for today will be focusing on Windows Vista and what makes this particular one so unique from the previous versions from Microsoft group. The latest operating system to be released by the Microsoft Corporation giant in their Windows line is Windows Vista. This new operating system has been hailed as the next great wave of operating systems (OS) with new improved features and a user interface like no other in their Windows series. So what should you expect to see new in Windows Vista?

But before we continue with today's computer basic training lesson, lets take a look at the true meaning of Computer Operating System. In its basic form, the definition of an operating system is as follows: a set of computer programs that manage the hardware and software resources of a computer system. We can add to that definition to say that an operating system rationally processes electronic devices in response to approved commands.

Most significant in Windows Vista is the way it looks (some people say its fantastic but you, whats your verdict?). It has brighter colors, more graphics, and capabilities for keeping multiple windows open on the same screen. Think of it as a computer version of picture in picture. Sounds strange to you? Why not, if you're still struggling to acquire your basic computer training? This is referred to as Windows Aero and is a completely new graphical user interface.

Here are just few of other highlights that make Windows Vista so great:

Windows Sidebar and gadgets that allows you to add an almost endless list of different gadgets.Basic file backup and restore.Improved DVD support that'll enable you to easily create custom your DVD movies.Shadow copy, a feature that allows you to recover deleted files easily.Easy transfer, a feature that allows you to easily transfer files from an older computer to the new computer.Enhanced file encryption.Instant search available through all Explorer windows.Self-healing, the ability to automatically detect and correct problems that may be encountered on your computer.Improved photo gallery and control of your photographs.More parental control.Improved Windows Calendar, with the ability to easily set your tasks and appointments. As was the case with other releases of Windows, the new Windows Vista is not without its critics. The biggest complaint among users of this operating system is that its system requirements are so high that you need a very large memory just to install the software. It takes up so much room on the hard driver, the computer runs slower.

Before we summarize today's lesson, you should also note that: even though Windows Vista is flashier and looks prettier, many people have trouble adapting to the new features. It's sometimes difficult to change over to something you're not used to. With everything that's new in Windows Vista, it can be overwhelming, but this is where you take it slow and explore your new operating system to make the best of it.

Almost all the problems and bugs in Windows Vista simply require a workaround or a change in the way you use it. Overall, Windows Vista has been hailed as a great new product ushering in a new era in computer technology today.

The choice has to be up to you whether or not you want to upgrade, but if you do, we're relatively sure you're in for a wonderful experience. But with your basic computer training, you should be able to handle most of these tasks. Hope you enjoyed our lesson for today!
