Will you be buying Windows Vista?

Just wondred what was the general thought on the new Windows Os? Will you be buying it or will it be more trouble than its worth? Like Xp there were teething probs till the service packs were brought out. Maybe the price is too high,what do you think?

No, only because it doesn't work well on computers that were not built for it... I will stay with XP until I get a new computer. ;)

I have just bought Windows Vista, what can I say its very impressive, my computer doesn't have the new 64 bit processor and runs very smoothly I'm very impressed with windows vista has many new features, more animated desktops and features, once I installed it I didn't need to install anything, didn't need to install the sound card, graphics card, windows done it all for me at the start, just install boot and do whatever you want straight up, instead of having to install stuff to run games windows vista does it for you It's very impressive I'm wrapped with what i got.

No I'll wait until I buy a new PC. It seems that older PCs work slower with Vista than XP. Wouldnt like to spend money to lose performance (although I still buy beer wierdly enough)
