Ok, I love vista, I have it on my laptop, and it rocks. Unless it says internet explorer has stopped working, but that only happens when I refresh a page to much. Also when I play sims, the fish in the fishtanks show up. I perfer the freshwater to the salt water tanks on it though.

i am a big fan of windows and the vista platform. i use macs for importing digital video, video editing and all of that stuff. we use it with our football program as well. we input our game film directly from a camera onto a laptop at the games...its a cool process.

Vista has some very nice features. Features that I miss after I down graded back to XP. The problem I had with it lies in the fact that I had an XP system that came with a free future upgrade to VIsta. Can you say compatibilty issues. At first, half my software didn't work and my video driver hated it. I ended up reverting my laptop to XP cause I got sick of having monitor driver failures every 5 minutes while playing WoW. Screen would just go blank for a sec. It also had sleep issues and hated having the lid closed. My friends daughter bought the same laptop a year later. It was built around Vista and has no problems at all. Service Pack 1 solved a lot of issues. I plan to upgrade my desktop down the road when I know I won't have a problem getting all the right drivers and such. As for the laptop, it died and when I replace it I may go Mac. It will be all WoW, email, and internet. Though Ubuntu sounds really neat. I like the wiggly windows and cube effect and it would be minimal to get WoW going.

One VERY annoying fact I recently learned about XP, it's not exactly Blu-Ray ready. You can imagine my dissappointment when I came home with my shiny new BD-ROM drive to have windows try to tell me it was a "CD drive". Actually at first it didn't even know the drive was there and is still a tad touchy. Fortuantely it came with PowerDvd and is able to play the discs. It took a little messing around but I got it to work. Seeing that Microsoft supported HD-DVD on the 360 I'm guessing it may be a while before XP gets a fix. Vista is fully BD ready though. That'll probably make the XP update take longer as they hope we break down and buy Vista. I'm not budging. My drive works it just doesn't look like it in Windows. OK anyway, end rant.
