The only issue I'm having with vista is incompatibility with my X-Fi sound card. It doesn't accept a digital output so its pretty much useless until they get a driver update for it. I really can't understand why people are hating on vista. Its not up to Microsoft to make drivers for every program or piece of hardware out there. Thats up to 3rd party companys to get there drivers in working order. It does upset me I've got a great soundcard that is pretty much useless in vista. Thats not microsofts problem though thats Creatives problem.
I can see some of your points about vista hogging resources. But when any of you buy a game do you try and use it with the minimum recommendations? Probally not and if you do are you expecting it to run at high fps with high graphic detail. NO your probally not. Anybody in this forum should no if you try and run software at minimum to recommend levels your not going to get the speed you want. If microsoft put on the label recommended 2 gigs of ram alot less people would make the purchase. (If they recommend 2gigs my current system would have 4gigs in it!) Smart on there part sure it will run on 1gig or even the minimum 512mb but you shouldn't complain because you really should have known your experience would be less then stellar.
Of course I'll still be running a dual boot setup until everything gets worked out. But they in there going in the right direction. 3-6 months from now the standard on most computers will probally jump to 2 gigs of ram with 1 gig on there lower end models unlike todays 1 gig standard 512 on lower models. Also they will probally implement a cheap intergrated DX10 into there setups. That may take a bit longer though. But how many vista ready machines are really being sold with DX10 cards in them???

The first time I myself used Vista I got a "Drive incompatibility with hardware, driver must end" or some relevant term. Although, the laptop I was using had a Core 2 Duo, 2GBs of DDR2 RAM, 80GB SATAII hard drive, X1300 mobility Radeon, yet, the hardware is "incompatible".
