If so, and I need to buy a new machine...
I avoided Vista like the plague. Bought 4 new computers since it came out, reformatted and upgraded back to XP on every single one. How is 7?

Hate to be the "Mac" guy here, but you gotta love Windows right? I have a 2 year, 4 month old imac with a gutless 2.0GHZ processor and 2GB of RAM that still runs as fast as it did day one. Thats running Photoshop CS3 and Final Cut daily too. Do all my photo and video editing on it. Only maintenance I have ever done was a few repair disk operations. Not only does every Windows release contain tons of bloatware the average user may not know about or know how to delete, it picks up tons more just surfing the net. Meaning you have to defrag and do alot of other maintenance monthly if not more. Time to buy a real computer
