Has anyone played around with the new OS yet? Thought about getting it in a few months when I try to build a new comp and just wanted to know if I should drop the few hundred to get it.

I would say HELL NO for that reason alone! Shocked

Damin's laptop came with it and he hasn't mentioned any problems, but still... damn.

Dodd, my advice would be to only get Vista if you are buying a new computer as well. Vista is standard now, and really costs very little when installed on a new computer.

XP is still good for running everything that's currently coming out, and probably will still for at least a year.

Vista is an excellent step up for windows, although from what I understand most programs still don't take advantage of all that Vista has to offer. Oh, and you want 2 GB of RAM to run it...seriously.

I will stay that I didn't want Vista at first. But found have helping Ryan with it on 2 computers that minus the changes to where everything is, it actually runs very nicely on most computers. I will say "most" being gaming computers. I would think it would have problem on a slower computer.

All in all it is should turn out to be a nice OS.

I wouldn't get it until I built a new computer just wanted to see if it was as bad when it first got released.
