I work as a computer tech and I've probably worked on Windows Vista around 20 times, on desktops and laptops, mostly dells, and a few HP's, and a few others. If you like Vista and are happy with it, and don't have any problems, you will probably enjoy it.
That said, I have had to uninstall Vista on 4 computers, and install XP again, some of these problems include, Not being able to install their favorite games, they got copies of office from someone else and it won't install on Vista, because they don't have a valid serial number. The printer won't install on Vista, the incredimail won't work correctly on Vista, and a ton of other reasons. People are creatures of habit, and Vista is just too much different than XP.
People want to be able to sit down and the computer works and works well. Vista just isn't there just yet.
As far as cool features, I've been too busy with the problems to notice. What do you think?

Well I don't have Windows Vista but the two friends that I know that do have it hate it. One has already had it uninstalled and XP put back on. It would not allow her access to her game console and one other thing I can't remember what the other problem was.

Vista has been a bad experience.
I bought my son a new computer with Vista and he cannot play his games on it. He is so disappointed.
I had planned to uninstalling Vista and installing XP (which is what I have on my computer), and I'm definitely going to do it after reading your post.

I heard Vista basic is lousy but the other versions are okay. Thanks for the heads up. I'll wait until they get all the bugs out. That should take another year I suppose.

I'll stick with XP until they get all the kinks worked out.
