>>You're really putting me off vista here. I need to upgrade very soon and am trying to decide wether to go with vista. I see the odd person who likes it but the negatives still seem to be in the majority. (that may be because happy people tend not to say where cheesed off people usually shout.)
Yes normally I keep whatever operating system a PC is supplied with. New operating systems rarely seem to sit well on older PC's. With Vista I do wonder is thats the correct approach. Though its against my usual practice to effectively downgrade the operating system when I buy.
