The anti-Vista hype juggernaut is large indeed. If you don't think Vista has measurable and proven advantages over XP, you need to do some more reading. It actually has more advantages vs. XP than XP had vs. win2k when it came out, many of them of actual significance (dwm instead of a single frame buffer, decoupled driver architecture, uac/security measures, ie7 protected mode, etc.). It still has some issues, like a finicky explorer forgetting display settings, but most of the problems have been patched out by now.
