Sadly, Mac and Vista are on the same boat now. I actually want to buy a laptop with XP on it.

I'm looking for a laptop as well, might as well wait for the shopping festival..

btw, you could buy a laptop even if it comes pre-installed with Vista and reformat it using XP.

But then I'd have to pay Microsoft again for the privilege, eh?

Not really *cough* bittorrent *cough*

Vista is still, in my opinion, in development and much like what XP was like when it first launched.

I'd prefer to keep with XP right now as it's fairly stable (Windows is never fully stable remember!). Give it 2-4 years and Vista will be the way to go, but not for now.

I bought a new notebook a couple of weeks ago with Vista installed, and I have to say it seems pretty finished and polished to me, with zero issues so far.

Granted I'm not a gamer, but all the other apps I use from XP work flawlessly.

HP vs. Mac. Now for that I would buy a ticket.

Mine is Vista Business, I appreciate its wonders now. Work is more efficient with vista, it's not for games though. Solitaire is more than enough for me.
