Windows XP or Vista For my Aunties, Teenagers 1st Computer What's Best?

It is my Aunties first Home PC that she is about to buy from Dell, it's a pentium 3gig dual core processor, 20" flat screen, 360 gig hard drive, 1gig Ram, mainly Teenagers are going to use it.

She has a choice of XP or Vista that comes with it, which should she get, most people we know use XP thats why I am thinking get that in case she needs to share programes or fix any issues.

Thank you

okay, i just got my brothers used Dell computer. he wiped everything off of it, then reinstalled windows xp and microsoft office.

now the screen resolution is , well, everything is big. not sure if that means the res is small or large. but when i go to control panel, display, settings, it WILL NOT let me change the screen resolution, it is set all the way to the left. also the color quality is set at 16 bit, and there are no other options.

also under control panel, sounds and audio devices, and then after clicking on the hardware tab, it says everything is working properly, when that is not the case. i tried playing a cd on windows media player and it says the sound card is not active or something like that. im pretty sure its there, what is going on i hate these things.

It would not recognize my 2 disk drives and come to find out, the drives were corrupted. How did they get corrupted? I restored the computer back a few days, and they were fine again...but the moment I uninstalled Nero, they were corrupted again. Did it have to do with me uninstalling Nero? or was it just a coincidence? What I ended up doing was restoring the computer back again a few days so that the drives were working..and I reinstalled Nero, even though it was still on my computer and everything seems to be ok for the time being, but why did it corrupt my drives when I uninstalled Nero the first time???

I have a friend with a new Dell Desktop. He has 3 printers that he had hooked to his old system via a manual selector switch. Instead of using the switch, can he just plug each printer into an available USB port if he were to get USB to parallel cables? Thanks!
