I'm not going to get it, I'm gonna stick with XP.

I think Vista is just a visual makeover really, anyway I'm using a Vista skin on XP with WindowBlinds so I'm happy with this

yep thats been the talking point on the web over the last few weeks. those buying new pcs would most probably get vista as the OS. corporates will wait till the first service pack, gamers till the first dx10 game.

In short everyone is playing a waiting game. Also microsoft is scheduled to release their vista succeeder in the year 2009.(named Vienna). So i hope the waiting does not lead to more confusion.

oh btw iam sticking with xp too. dont think my pc can handle vista.

I'm not getting it just because XP doesn't have too much wrong with it. It is great for gaming so far, and until games come out that require Vista, I'm not upgrading. I know halo 3 will require Vista.

I heard about a lock-down feature that limits your access to the internet if you have pirated programs/games on your computer. just a rumor?
