If you ignore the amount of resources Vista uses, it's actually excellent! Put it this way - if you weren't going to use the PC/laptop solely for gaming, Vista is brilliant.

I actually love Vista now! It has so many cool features, it makes XP look like DOS in comparison :P

I have Home Premium, I'd hate to have Basic though...

I got used to vista fairly quickly and used to like it, however I reformatted my computer over a month ago and it was nothing but a headache afterwards. For some reason I was getting all of these weird problems I never had before.

Such as copy and pasting like 1gb would take 12 hours, task bar options gone, and various random other things. I spent about 2 hours each night for a week straight find solutions to problem after problem. It was like well vista has this flaw,bug,glitch,issue, etc ,etc. When your not having problems vista is great but when something goes wrong you want to throw it in the trash and go back to xp. :x
