Just bought a Dell XPS with Vista Home Premium. It is great and fast. Just make sure you have the power on your computer to run it.

Add me to the of satisfied customers. I’ve worked in IT for 23 years and have a home network with (seemingly) one of everything. My Vista PC is great. All peripheral devices (printers, drives, joysticks, cameras, etc) work great. It doesn’t crash and it’s reliable.

Of course, you can’t be satisfied or have a good experience unless you have a mac. Come to think of it, the only computer that challenges me is my daughter’s iBook (req’d for school) It won’t work with anything.

In November 2006 I bought a Dell 420 XPS with XP and was sent a VISTA Home Premium in February of 2007. I had a lot of problems with the new Windows, including a 7 hour bout with a Dell tech in India (That I could not understand what was alleged to be the English language). Still had problems like not being able to load Adobe's Elements 5.2 Organizer, Apple's iTunes/QuickTimes, Coral's Snapfire and others. A few months ago MS sent me a free VISTA Ultimate. I did a complete fresh install. My life is now much better. I replaced Snapfire with Rixio's Easy Media 10 Suite (Lots of goodies!). There a few Vista hiccups each week, but all in all I am enjoying the Ultimate Windows. My wife has VISTA Home Basic on her Dell laptop and does not have any problems except for a wireless connection to her Dell 946 printer (My wireless to the same printer functions without any problem).
