To vote in this poll you have to have used Vista.

Don't know if this has been done but seeing as theres a few threads about Vista and it pretty much turns into a flaming war between lovers and haters of vista.

I have not had any serious problem with Vista.

I believe the majority of crap about Vista is from idiots or people who have made up their mind before trying it.

Dislike Vista, for the same legitimate reasons, I disliked XP untill I could get a stripped down copy. Too much useless junk, not much more utility or substance.

I got along fine with Windows 2000 SP4 till june 2007; XP will probably last me till Windows 7.

There are currently zero compelling reasons, for me to sidegrade/downgrade/upgrade to Vista.

I gave it 2 months, 1 when it was released back in Jan 07 and another month in October. I found it to be slower at booting and general application booting, BF2 had poor performance compared to XP and took twice as long to load a map. I didn't really see the point in DX10 as I could hardly tell the difference between COH DX9 Vs COH DX10 but I lost a lot of FPS and it would take forever to load.

XP is fine for me as I have a custom theme anyway so the GUI wasn't really worth it.
