I think Windows Vista is good, although maybe you should wait until a few months, to make sure nothing happens.
You should also work to earn your own cash for Windows Vista.

Trust me you do not want vista unless you have 2mb of Ram and a new video card. I would go get the windows Vista capatibility program and see if your computer is ready for it.
By the way buy a legal copy of it. I will not get vista for about 2 years cause Microsoft is going to support Windows XP SP 2 until 2014.
I am waiting that long so I can see how good Vista really is.

The only way to get it is to pay for it. Because of pirates like you, Microsoft has implemented what is essentially a zero tolerance attitude toward pirated copies of Vista. Here's a description of what's involved (copied from http://www.computerworld.com/action/article.do?command=viewArticleBasic&articleId=9009961):
Windows Vista ushers in the newest generation of Microsoft DRM for Windows: Software Protection Platform. After years of playing around with this, Microsoft's full solution is in place, because SPP finally adds the stick. Once SPP determines you have an illicit copy of Vista installed, you have 30 days to pay up, by buying (or re-buying) your copy of Vista. If you do not comply within that time frame, SPP places your Vista computer in what Microsoft calls "reduced functionality mode." The only thing you can do in this state is launch your Web browser for the purpose of paying up and getting a valid product key.
After one hour in reduced functionality mode, Vista automatically logs out the user, without recourse. You can log back in immediately for another hour, but unless you decide to pay up, your computer becomes virtually useless to you. There is no Start menu, there are no desktop icons, and the desktop background is changed to black in reduced functionality mode.
More information is available at http://www.computerworld.com/action/article.do?command=viewArticleBasic&articleId=9004970
So you're out of luck. And thanks to folks like you who believe that the world owes them free software and are willing to steal to get it, everybody has to put up with this crap. Thanks a lot.
If you want a free operating system, use Linux. That way nobody else gets scr*wed over.

now why would you want Vista... when the basic version is total rubbish and full of bugs, and you need a top of the rang system to run it on, and for one thing you can only use it on one computer, and can't install it again on any other system even if the computer it was on is a total burn out
