I tried Vista extensively during the Beta phase and wasn't impressed too much. The desktop effects are all just Mac rip offs and if I am that desperate for some kind of 3D BS I'll just load up Sabayon Linux which comes pre laoded with 3D stuff that rivals MacOSX.

I myself prefer a dual install machine. Windows XP and SuSe 10.2. The only reason I even use windows is because I'm a game addict and even that might not be a good reason to stick with XP if Linux keeps developing. There isn't a single thing on Vista or XP that Linux can't do except gaming. And the irony there is that that is a market monopoly thing. Many games are made in Linux machines and the vast majority of movie CGI is on Linux based workstations.

Windows is a lame duck and its only a matter of time before either M$ reforms their useless sh1tty ways or Linux and Mac supplant them. But I emphasize a long term view in this. Getting half my friends to try Firefox was a real nail pulling experience. The stupid twats were so conformist and scared of change that they couldnt even say why they wouldn't try it. "I don't feel like it".:rotfl:

Stupid sheep.
