I'm not having any problems with Vista. But I get a free upgrade to 7 since my laptop is only a couple of months old.
I plan to wait awhile to upgrade because I want to make sure all the drivers I need have been upgraded.

I don't think Vista is very good for photo filing. That's my major beef.
I'm really going to need it when I go back to school in January as a Digital Media major.2008 Trek FX 7.2/Terry Cite X

Well I've read that 7 is much better than Vista. Although I don't remember specifically reading about photo filing.
I do like the commercials with the little girl and the happy words. I love the slide with the bunny surrounded by marshmallows.
Did I spell "marshmallows" right? Is it "mallows" or "mellows"? I guess if I don't know, that means I need to eat more of them...

NYB it is indeed "mallow."
I just got a new laptop, with Vista. Haven't had it long enough for it to slap me. I'm not impressed with laptop - it's a Dell studio. Still haven't figured out how to turn it off.......
I do have free upgrade to 7, but my Computrainer program will not be compatible..I guess I'll just have to wait.
Zen - you really going back to school? Awesome!!!

I've been using Windows 7 on my work computer for well over a month now...I absolutely LOVE IT!!! I work at a college, so we were fortunate enough to get an early release. I cannot say enough great things about Windows 7. I was upgraded from XP Pro (our college never migrated to Vista, because it sucked so bad), and it is lightyears ahead of XP Pro (and I was a big fan of XP, so for me to say that, is really saying something). There are so many very cool features with 7...you all are gonna love it!
FWIW, I have an iMac with Snow Leopard OS X for home use and love that just as equally as I love my Windows 7 at work.
