I'm in agreeance with djbass. I love Vista. I still have XP through dualboot (which an awesome skin might I add). You can check my two OS's below. I still prefer my Win XP skin but WindowBlinds can only customise so much.. Vista's skinning engine is superior.

I dislike the lack of skinning support for Vista atm. but it's minor.
I am absolutely loving Vista's network diagnostic repair function.. I don't have to go to Run... CMD... ipconfig /release followed by /renew followed by /flushdns which used to happen reguarly. Now all I have to do is click a diagnose and repair option by right clicking on my lan icon in systray and one/2 button clicks later, it's repaired itself.
I have full driver support although it took me a while for example, my keyboard and mouse took a while. I don't have full application support but I have bypassed all problems by running them in Compatibility mode which so far, works like a charm.
Anyway, rather than blabber on, I love Vista and I am yet to receive more than one BSOD... and that's because I've been over-clocking my rig. Which is more than I can say for WinXP which would crash all the time etc. etc. etc. constant reinstalls every other week. Vista's ace.
