Glad Vista is gone, it was awful. The only reason I don't switch completely over to Linux is my husband. He uses a lot of audio software that isn't be compatible. Plus, he isn't as good with computers in general, so he'd be a bit lost. I never did like OSX. I’m dual-booting XP and Ubuntu now. Glad Vista is gone, it was awful.

It depends on what you intend to do with your comp of course, but after installing Ubuntu I seldom go back to windows (dual boot ftw!). With Beryl, it looks WAY nicer than aero (and, arguably, OSX) , you can live more or less free of viruses, and somehow, the fact that I don't have one piece of cracked software on my comp feels .. I don't know how to put it ... *nice* (lame word ... but hey .. I'm french ... i'm not supposed to understand, let alone be able to write, in english). Speaking of OS-X ... It's as they say in the apple's ads : it's for people too stupid to read captions or differentiate between left and right ( ... mouse buttons). Only reason I still have dual boot is that I like to play Oblivion. All the rest, from movie editing to checking video blogsites because they were advert .. aeh ... criticized in the NY Times can be achieved as easily as in MS-Windows. Anyway nice blog ... cya from the caribbeans just give Linux a try .. well ..

I like the Aero interface but they killed enough functionality from a business perspective, and made things too crappy from an end user perspective, that I said goodbye long ago. However it seems to've left it's mark as XP on my notebook has never been the same. Random 5-10 sec lag on bootup where nothing happens. Keeps disabling my internal NIC even thou I tell it to always be active.... Vista hurt it :( Amen.
