Personally I've avoided Vista to date - I know XP does exactly what I need it to do, while all Vista seems to offer is a slightly prettier but resource-hogging interface, with far less functionality due to compatibility issues.

In a standalone environment with all new hardware and software, am sure Vista runs great - but so many of us I figure have to rely on older software and hardware configurations. There seems no point in ditching these and spending 100's or 1000's on new for all of these, just to ensure the ability to buy into Vista.
