I've read all the posts. I'd like to add my 2 cents. My son wanted Vista on his computer. I set it up for duel boot. My opinion, it stinks. Lack of hardware compatibility.
His Audigy 2 ZS works great in XP. Sound is terrible in Vista.
His modem was not recognized in Vista. Had to buy him a new modem. $$$$ Vista recognized it in a second and installed drivers.
His printer is not recognized in Vista. Tried all the work arounds to get it to work. Will not work. Refuse to spend money just to get a Vista recognized printer. $$$$
Companies are refusing to write the proper drivers for existing software because they expect people to go out and spend money on Vista capable hardware. Look at the big stink that happened at Creative a few weeks ago when some kid took the Creative drivers for X-fi and the Audigy cards and made them Vista Capable. (for free) It it possible. But companies want more money. Buy, buy, buy.
