I’ll pull a John F’n Kerry on you here by replying to not reply.
I think it comes down to your choice I have read this same story about every MS OS that’s come out. “Microsoft IS DOOMED”, or some such screed. Every MS OS keeps right on trudging along.
I do I.T. at my office also, and we are currently running Vista on 2 machines, and the only problem I’ve had at all is some driver problems caused by third party foot dragging.
If you have a free upgrade I’d take advantage of it now, as I predict MS will cut support for XP before the end of 2008, so you’re going to have to do it sometime.
I use Vista Business, and I am especially impressed with it’s media handling capabilities. Much smoother than XP.
That’s my opinion. That, and a dollar will buy you a Double Cheeseburger at McDonalds!

That’s what I have read and am afraid of. Guess I need to do more reading up on just what the perks of Vista are!

Thanks rikkir!

Sales of XP just got extended through the middle of 2008 because so many people still want XP instead of Vista. Mainstream support doesn't end until April 2009, but that'll probably be extended too. It's not like Microsoft to sell an OS and give less than a year of support for it.
