I don't understand the stick that Vista gets. To me it seems a really good OS that has a lot going for it, admittedly its just a more polished version of XP AND they didnt deliver everything they intended but it works a treat and if im being honest, i've only ever seen a blue screen of death once in over a year of use (due to dodgy Nokia mobile phone drivers not vista).

People harp on about UAC, but once Vista is installed and all your apps are on you almost never see it and its a great extra layer of security. Tip:- turn it off, install your apps, turn it on, IF it bothers you that much.

So what is it that gets your goat about Vista, from where im sitting, i've been running the 64bit version (arguably the more difficult version of Vista due to it's signed driver requirements) since release, everything works, it looks lovely, its fast and it give me no jip.
