I like vista, but you must have a new, powerful computer.

I've had good experiences with Vista as well, if you're working with 64bit you might as well stick with it until Windows 7 is released.

While Vista does look pretty, all of those gadgets come at a cost, system performance. I personally prefer Xp over Vista, though some PC games do look & perform better on Vista. BUT XP is stable as a rock and you can costumize it to look like Vista without bogging down your resources.

I recently switched to Vista myself and I absolutely regret it. I haven't had too many huge issues (I lucked out) and it's kinda pretty, but I won't be reinstalling it after my next format. There's just too much headache involved with a new OS.. I'll stick with what I know next time around.

I think it depends on your machine and what you use it for.

I have Vista on my new laptop for business use and its great.
But I have kept XP on my main machine (d/l movies editing etc) because I do not want any upgrading issues.

The reason I think Vista has not taken off is that for many it offers very few new features. The only ones I can see is the file pathway that it shows at the top of folder windows (very handy) and the gadgets which can be cool.
