I run the same OS on all my home computers when I can. Why re-invent the wheel when teaching family members how to work the computer?

Since Microsoft ignores that it's rare to find a home with only one computer anymore, why should I bother spending a thousand dollars to upgrade just the OS? Add in Word 2007, and that's another two thousand. Nope, thanks Microsoft, but I'll wait until I buy new computers (and probably uninstall Vista on them.)

Office 2003 works on Vista, Vista Basic is only a 99 dollar upgrade(and no its not crippled the only major difference between that and Ultimate and Premium is the lack of Media Center and AeroGlass), so unless you have 10 computers you wont be spending that much to upgrade your PC's.
