I had the same experience. My new laptop came with Vista installed and
I was prepared to go back to XP. I haven't had any problems with Vista
at all.

I picked up a nasty case of adware or something and decided to
replace my pc. I was really worried about the Vista thing. I have
yet to figure out what all the yelling was about, I'm fine with it.

I've been told by People Who Should Know that the major problems with
Vista arise when it is used on underpowered computers and most newer PCs
have enough memory to handle it.

Ah. I knew it was a hog, I would never have tried to upgrade
my old pc to Vista.

it's true that my vista was on a new machine, presumably with the juice to
run it. i did disable the User Account Control (UAC) within the first
couple of days because it annoyed the shit out of me asking for
authorization every time i wanted to do something.

I'm hoping my machine will hold on until I can get Windows 7. I've
played with Vista in stores and it annoys the hell out of me.
