I doubt I will upgrade to Vista. Come to think of it, I've never upgraded OS, I get it when I buy a new PC. I had a 120Mhz Pentium with Win95, and then a Pentirum III 500 Ghz with Win 98, and now my 2.4Ghz P4 with XP. Thing is, I don’t plan to buy a new PC yet, even though this one is 4 1/2 years old. I added a 2nd HD and a Geforce 6600GT card. Still handles all the games I throw at it, including AOE3, BF2, and SH4. So, I'm going to squeeze another year or two out of it.

I bought a pair of HP laptops for my twin daughters' graduation presents last week, they came with Vista. Other than a few geegaws and eye candy, Vista is about the same interface-wise as XP. As it happens, the laptops use a Geforce graphics card….
