Over the years I've adopted a 'wai and let them fix the shit' approach to new versions of Windows. When the new version comes out there are always bugs, but the major issue is compatability with programs. While this isn't Microsoft's problem, it still takes awhile for software vendors to put out new drivers for all of the gadgets and programs that we use on a daily basis.

As a guy who is constantly tinkering with electronics (pc, game systems, home theater), I did find Vista far too 'big brother-ish' in the beginning. My main pc is running XP Pro still, and the new laptop is running Vista Home Premium.
Tax return time means the building of a new main rig, and I'll more than likely be trying out Vista 64bit on that one.

I ramble....I ramble....
Long story short;
I've gotten used to Vista like I got used to XP after awhile.
Windows 7 is actually the only OS update that I can recall looking forward to.
