I like it, its black so "matches" the laptop if you know what i mean.

Has some quite good things built into the Vista that i didn't have on XP aswell.

Seems good enough to me.

Vista is terrible avoid at all costs....why waste CPU and RAM just to look pretty ?? Infact Vista is so bad it's already due to be replaced by xmas 2009 by Windows 7 which is already in Beta.
My Dell Inspiron came with Vista Business edition as standard, 1st thing I did was format it and install Windows XP Pro.

Vista is fine, there are no problems with it.

Been happily using it now myself for almost a year. Dont beleive all the stories about it, more often than not it is just people who cannot deal with change.

But if you can hang on, wait for windows 7.

Vista will be fine on it once you get used to it!!

I was just speaking to a mate of mine on MSN. He compared Vista to anal sex, his words:

"you know you want to try it, but get put off by having a smelly cock. Then you do it, love it and then need to disinfect yourself afterwards".

Bizzare.
