Vista reminds me of WIN2K (what WinXP is now)

I remember those who swore by Win2K, not going to upgrade to XP.

I'm currently using 2 version of Vista on separate systems, one Vista Business before SP1, and just recently Vista Ultimate.

I was amazed at how this new core design was so much more ready for the market then previous versions. The driver update response was quick from 3rd party vendors, but the main core drivers were up to date enough to run the system.

UAC was a real pain but a single tweak leaves it on without the prompt. The new explorer takes some time to get use to, but now I see its advantage compared to the old File Manager.

I'm going to enjoy Vista's next level 'Windows 7'

Same here. My only beef with vista is X-fi compatibility issues. Other than that I have none.

My last sound card was an Audigy but now I just use the on board sound systems. I even tried the card in my old system and preferred the on board. weird.

Oh boy this may be interesting: http://tech.yahoo.com/blogs/null/116923

Also read way down the page to the many post's about the bickering of Vista, XP, 2000, Mac. A lot of Vista lovers but on this globe I think XP still is the winner and looking for WINDOWS 7 to blossom.

Yes, they definitely ran back to the marketing department and started the leaks and new GUI so they could sell more product. As far as the layoffs go, just look around....

Using vista 32bit here. runs well. Haven't had a Blue screen in months.

I'm running XP, bought SH4 first month it was out, purchased SH4 U-Boat and have NEVER seen a blue screen. In fact the only time I think the game crashes is when I accidentally push the shift-F11 keys for a pic ( should be Ctrl-F11 ) and have to go to desk top and pick up game again.

Sorry but I'm an old putter and will stick with XP for a long time.

There is no argument here as to what everyone else has as that is his/her business.

So whatever works for you go for it.
