i used to dual boot Vista and xp aswell....both 32 bit versions.

and i also think Vista is faster and smoother than Xp but the main reason i went back to xp is because i do like to game and as you can see i dont have the best rig so vista wasnt getting me as many fps in games as xp did.

I like both XP and VISTA but I felt XP was a nice transition into Vista. Vista I agree too runs a lot smoother and I have had less issues with vista than with XP. Ive also noticed a lot of the gruff people have with Vista can easily be shut off or changed to work the way you want.

I want to switch to Vista, since my new system will be high-end and my video card is DX10 native. If Microsoft would allow DX10 to be used on XP, then I would not switch.

Also, alot of people are saying Vista is like ME, I don't think this is true. When Windows ME came out, it immediately seemed to be a short term OS, especially because ME stood for "Millenium Edition", and there was already alot of talk about XP when ME was released. ME only lasted for about a year. I think Vista is going to last a while longer, but maybe not as long as XP. I just think that XP is getting very old, it's 6 already! It was definitely time for an upgrade.
