I've heard alot about Vista. But i'm gonna wait a year before I go ahead and spend money on it, just so they work out the kinks and other annoying problems that come with new technoloy :)

@Almighty Sal
Have fun not being able to play games with Vista for about 3 months...
Have fun with crashes and lock-ups...
Have fun with Drivers not working or not out....
Have fun with trying to run some of your programs that hate Vista *iTunes*
Etc etc etc
Also..
Vista is just XP with *SOME* new features
Vista security sucks.. Already hack out and working to have you...
Vista is too much $$$
Vista is just XP but with a new skin...
For the others::: Wait until Late March, Early April to get it.... But if you get it now... Good Luck with problems after problems..
Even if you dont see any now.. It will come.. ohh it will come ;)
Enjoy.

Anyway,Vista in my oppinion is the largest 20GB Installment I'd never waste my time or good hard earned money on, To begin with i'm a Linux GNU/Debian user. Meaning I use the Debian operating system,which I got for A.Free B. it's more stable then windows C. Open Source > Closed Source,thats the end of that, Windows Vista may look great but to be honest it's not, It really isn't I, I mean it's unstable it's still in it's infancy, I mean BSOD's will prolly occur,well.. Maybe not because of the NTFS but I mean In my oppinion LARGEST most expensive mistake i'd ever do to my computer.

fucking hell 20gb on an OS is alot, xp is only i think 4.85gb if that depends whats installed, it seems a bit much
and vista is expensive but so is xp and xp professional costs even more
just vista released like 9 versions which makes no sense just stick with home and professional
i dont see whats good about the media center on it, its like WMP which coincidently is shit :D wmp lacks and phails
