Im planning to have one but of course the requirement of WinVista is 1gig of RAM to avoid some crashes. Remember that WinXP is required to have 512mb of RAM and now WinVista is required to have a 1gig of RAM to run smoothly. So... if your planning to buy or have a WinVista then you better have a 1gig of RAM, if you have 512mb of RAM and you installed WinVista then you run your desktop not smoothly or sometimes runs slow.

No. I don't have one and I am proud of it. I am proud that I am not giving my money to the richest man in America.

All this Vista bashing makes me laugh. It's Microsoft, so it appears that this fact gives "serious" reviewers and every random forum peon alike the license to blindly criticize and pass along bogus problems associated with their products.
There's no big, obvious addition to the Vista, but when you aggregate all the changes, improvements and refinements you get an operating system that feels lightyears more advanced and just a much more pleasant experience to move around then than XP. I'll mention just two improvements that are worth the price of admittance here: the much improved and greatly less obtrusive Mobile Sync Center (the replacement for the much-hated ActiveSync), and the smooth and instantaneous sleep mode that makes turning off and turning on your computer even faster than a game console.
It's true that the UAC (User Access Control) adds another layer of input required on the part of the user to make system wide changes to their PC, but this is the price to be paid in this era of mad hackers running roughshod through people's computers.
Taken as a whole, Vista is truly a seamless and wonderful computing experience.
