When XP first came out it wasn't long before there was a "Service pack" for it. Then there was another. Since SP2 there have been dozens of patches for XP. I doubt that it will be different for Vista. The "Windows" Operating Systems are designed to do almost everything for everyone, from casual email checkers and internet surfers to serious multi-machine in-house networked workstations in corporations that maintain connections to multiple networks of other neworks. (With support for almost every language in the world) It is unlikely that such a complex and flexible platform would be bug-free straight off the shipping dock despite beta testing. My XP works well on my present computer. Down the road a few years when it is time for me to get a new machine I will get a computer designed for Vista, which by then will have benefited from full "sea trials." I see no reason for me to rush to a new operating system when XP is doing what I want done right now. Hey, If all I wanted was new, I could have Linux tomorrow for free.
