    I tried the Vista beta but didn't really like it.
    I had a Vista like style for XP for a while, but after some time I got sick of it xD

    Ubuntu and XP are fine for me, I don't want to get Vista yet.

    I could care less who had what first. If it's functional and useful, then everything should have it. :| So my favourite feature remains the toolbar.

    I'm not too crazy about Vista. Of course, when XP came out I wasn't fond of that either. Maybe I just hate change? You guys should try working at an internet call center and the only tool you have is an outdated Dell PC with XP installed and you're constantly getting callers who just bought a PC with of course, Vista. When Vista first came out and we started to get our first Vista calls, we had no idea how to direct them through their new OS because we weren't fully familiar with it yet ourselves. Then add on the fact you get a lot of older people calling who have no computer skills. "Yes, my winternet explorer is down and I need it up so I can play my online slots game!", "The START menu?! Where is that located at?" ¬_¬ Later on during the phone call you instruct them to do tasks on their computer that involve typing and you hear: "Click... *LONG PAUSE* click... click... click...", "Okay, I'm done typing in IP CONFIG!" Albeit, none of this really has anything to do with why Vista is bad or good, but going through something like that certainly tends to make you dislike Vista.

    Yeah. I notice that many things is Vista was copyed from Linux. <- Just pointing this out.

    *Cough the tool bar Cough*

    You should see my friend complain about Vista... he says almost everything is copied from something else and that the design is "sickening to look at". xDD

    Well it's kinda real. Of course not all of the things of Vista are copied. But most of the new stuff, yes.

    I haven't had the chance to use it yet, so I can't really say... but I'm not believing all that he says, xD especially when he only likes Macs and despises MS in every single way. O.o

    I've got XP still on my PC, my PC probably couldn't handle Vista... but I'll have to use it I suppose if I buy a new laptop soon-ish. It doesn't look too bad~ has improvements onto XP but it'll be a weird change. O.o

    I can't stand the Mac users who are total elitists. XD; I mean, I'm not a mac fan, but most of the ones I know are civilized and can go several days even without pointing out how much better macs are. Most don't even bring it up at all. :[

    Haha, like I said before--I don't care if one OS copied another; if it's copied, it means it's probably pretty good so users of both OSes would benefit. Who cares who did it first? XD

    For now, I'm correct with XP. When I'll change my RAMs cards, I may install Vista. ~ Until then, XP. ^^

    Macs are good for specific tasks, (being so expensive compared to Windows ones, they should be!!) but then it makes it seem that they're always above the rest of the pack. I dunno, but I'd rather save myself some money and go for a Windows PC with enough functions that I need then go with some hardcore Macbook which would probably cost twice as much. O.o

    A very valid point. xD

    I myself am a big fan of Macs.
    Then again, why wouldn't I be?
    I'm a Graphic Designer.

    And yes, I run XP right now, and I have been slowly been saving up so I can buy myself a Macbook.
    :)

    I wish I had money.

    I use XP, and even if my computer wasn't 7 years old I'd use it, just because I like it loads more than Vista.

    My computer is whatever it is. I see the word Microsoft office somewhere, so I'll just go with Microsoft. XD
