Default Windows Vista

How many of you are going to purchase the new Windows Vista when it comes out? I hear it's pretty slick.

I'm going to give it some time first - it'll be full of bugs like Windows XP was.

Anyone for Vista 2nd Edition? When Vista SP2 is finally out the price will have come down a little as support for XP eventually drops off. When the finished version of IE 7 is available that will be tried again on the current XP system here. That has a few improved features like antiphising and the option to block the domains of spam senders not just the individual addresses.

No, I've been using Linux for almost a year now and it fulfills all of my needs.

I am also going to wait a while and see what others think. Then let Microsoft fix everything, then I will look into buying it.
