Oh please.
Hating on vista is rapidly becoming an old trend as many more people realize that it's either improved or they were just being ignorant and stubborn before (most likely a little of both).
I have had no problems with vista and enjoy it much much much more than XP. After using Vista for over a year it is painful to use a normal instalation of XP (read: a non power user's xp install). There's no search and the interface is slower than in Vista. People complained how vista's UI changed for the worst and you had to re-learn it. First of all, relearning it only took a few minutes of your time and second of all after using it for so long if you try to use XP you'll see that in vista you get to what you want faster/in fewer clicks.
Gaming isn't bad either. Sure, you may get less fps but I don't get BAD fps. It's a tradeoff. I'll lose a few frames but I'll still get a good framerate and by no means do I have a super computer (4400+, 2gb ram, 8600gt).
I've recommended Vista to friends and family and while they resisted at first they ALL now hapily use it and PREFER it over XP. Some of them complained at first but I told them to keep using it and yes, after a while they easily got used to it and like I said now prefer it over XP.
People who refuse to switch to Vista at home are being silly (and I think it's time Maximum PC cut down on the vista trash talking. Newflash: it's old, it's the new os, it's better than xp,you use it per your screenshots so stop going with the (old and outdated) flow.)
