I've heard nothing but bad things about it. Wait a year or two until the service pack comes out.

I bought a new computer last week with Vista on it and I'd say stay away from it as well. It is just like any new software, it will have problems for awhile. It isn't that easy to navigate around and I can't find my files half the time. It also shuts down and reboots at will, that is frustrating when it happens in the middle of an email. It shuts down after a Microsoft update, which I don't even know is happening.

Thumbs down for now.

I have that problem with the latest upgrades to XP.

The IT guy here at work told me it would be at least two years before we upgrade to Vista. (Lots of compatibility issues.) Our Corporate IT wizards have absolutely nothing good to say about it.
