We have awinner
My Office and other XP software would not run on Vista (and it has a carppy interface) so I upgraded to XP Pro.
Pretty happy now.
Vista is all glit’s, and that glit’s sucks up cpu cycles when they could be used for something productive. MS has a habit of writing bloated code, and slowing down even very powerful machines.
Why dosen’t MS write a fast cappable OPSYS and sell the Glit’s seperatly for those who want it.
If the software I used would run on Linux I’d swap over permanently. Unfortunatly several pieces of software I own have no direct aternative written for Linux, like Motion Builder.
