I tried vista and get back in xp quicky. I had lots of compatibility issues with some of the sofware in my cafe use and some of the game that i play. So basically vista is good but as of the moment there are just lots of compatibility issues specially when they are nit new units.

I've used Vista once, and i loved the look, but the compatibility and bugs were absolutely AWFUL. I have 2 computers here of my own, this laptop with WinXP, which has never failed me, and then my desktop, which runs Ubuntu 7.10. Ubuntu is brilliant and i've only found one thing i want it to do which it can't, and that's run Outlook. It runs Dreamweaver, everything. Best bit of Ubuntu is that you don't need to me "linux inclined", in that it's veery simple to use, and get to know, and i've only had to use the terminal once or twice. Unlike most linux flavours, it has a package installer, so you can look through things in the "Ubuntu Repos" and jsuit install them, and as they are added to the shell, they are added to the updater, which makes everything brilliantly simple.
Best thing is, there's no need for IE on it! ^.^ <3 Firefox, and it's even better on Linux

As with all MS operating systems there are glitches. I think that vista and the problem with compatibility is just a sign that Gates is struggling. I think that a lot of people want a system with more reliability and is stable, such as Linux. I would like one. I have used Vista and am in no hurry to change from XP. But I will go another supplier though.
