Windows Vista, why should you get it?

[Dilbert]

I don't hate it, I just prefer the more stable and comfortable XP box I've got now. Nothing's broken, why fix it?

Are you trying to tell me you dont want to download the 7GB SP1 pack when it comes out?
(Yes, the standalone requires 7GB... but after its installed, you only need 2GB. The Streamline only downloads what you need)

[Dilbert]

Right.

They are already planning a SP?

Yes. I think you will find, most likely, that XP probably had an SP at around the same time (dont count on my word, I admit, I disliked XP greatly when it first came out)
Half the XP discs out there have SP1 on them anyways

Vista's SP1 will be out around November, I think
That will be fun

That's definitely an understatement...

Would love to see the posts flying around here when that happens...

Actually, I am rather excited
I dont ever recall seing a patch where making the system more reliable and incresing preformance. (*coughfs and points in ME's direction*)

The system is stable now, but I really want to see these even better improvements come across.

Actually, I sorta just started learning about all that after XP SP2 came out. But yes, it'll be nice to have an improved version of Vista come out.

And besides, it's gonna take a while 'till virtually all programs have Vista compatibility.

That will never happen, I can guarantee. I still run programs that are barely compatible with XP, and have some are are completely incompatible. Darn you, Home Design software!

At least a lot of open-source software keeps up, since it's updated a lot!
