Anyone have any good things to say about Vista? I've heard plenty of horror stories, but I'm hoping Microsoft has been able to work out a lot of the bugs by now. The hardware is a significant upgrade over my previous pc, so I'm hoping to see a nice performance increase regardless of the OS. Any Vista tips/reviews/warnings are apprecieated. Thanks!

Personally I can't stand Vista. The last several computers I've bought for myself and others I limited my choice to those which came with XP. Dell allows you to choose between the two when you order from them, which I find a really attractive selling point for them.

Other than the general appearance bells and whistles I've not yet found anything Vista does that XP can't. I find all the system administration and networking tasks much more obscure and tedious on Vista.

And coupled with the performance hit you take with Vista (it runs noticeably slower on any machine I've seen, and even know of techs who recommend going back to XP when someone tells them their new computer is too slow), makes me stay far away from it.
