When using the beta of vista I was loving it and my PC ran a damn sight better with it too.

yeah vista is pretty dam cool. And pple say how speeds PC up, really does, as i noticed in mine.

Plus there are just a bunch of other little cool things that really help with userability. Worth getting.

i purchased vista ultimate.. then resold it immediately to a client..

its great @ updating the skin.. but i cant even run counter-strike properly on it... seems like the aero eats up the vid card...

gadgets panel is useless..

I agree here, I recently on my main computer downgraded from vista to XP becuase I could play counter strike source on it.

I am still keeping vista on my new laptop don't want to f*ck it up.

Well vista is using directx10 which isnt compatible with some games but you can install directx9 over the top if you like
