[QUOTE="thermidor, post: 323026, member: 9741"] Oh come ON people! I've just ordered Vista (cheap upgrade) for the Windows laptop I use at work. I've polled everybody I know who has tried it to find out whether it's worth installing it. WITHOUT EXCEPTION people have said - NO - stick to XP. Vista is slow, eats up disk and memory, fully of nasty DRM stuff, and not very reliable yet. And if you're going to stick to XP, why wouldn't you want to go for OS X instead? Much more reliable, focus on productivity, easy to use, looks good, secure, etc etc... Open the MacBook and I bet your HP laptop will be gathering dust in a cupboard in a few days. [/QUOTE]
