    I haven't heard anything about Vista Proffessional, is there such a thing?
    And do we need pro to run internet services?

    Edit: Seems that they call it "Ultimate" - correct me if I am wrong -. And the price seems reasonable too, about $200, perhaps I can pay in two three years. LOL

    I keep digging and no way to get a price as low as that.
    Do you mind sharing an URL if that's an online store? Thanks..

    I won't buy Vista. Maybe in a few years when all the bugs have been fixed (if I dont get a Mac before that) :p

    I tried to think of getting a Mac.
    Hard to convince myself to accept a new learning curve.. So I'm still on Win, however agree, installing Vista first day after the launch would not be the wisest thing to do. Buying it now could be a mistake either. It will eventually become cheaper in a few months.

    This is the URL: Vista

    Somewhere on the right it says
    "Buy and Ship
    $249.99 to $289.00"

    And here at the Amazon

    I'm going to wait a good year before I do.. Hopefully that will give them enough time to work out the bugs and all as I imagine it has lots of them.

    Same story I've been hearing for many years every time a new windows version arrives: "too expenisve, bloatware, don't want to upgrade hardware, doesn't offer anything, unstable, slow", blah, blah, blah (yawn) and then 12 months later over 50% is using Vista. :rolleyes: So if you want to comment on Vista, comment on it in an intelligent way.
    Do you need Vista? Nah, but you will buy it anyway.... :confused:

    I will only change from XP Pro to Vista if I have to. Currently, I am very happy with XP Pro.

    Col :)

    In fact.. same here.
    I don't see why I would switch now. And I'm aware that if I do that out of curiousity I might have to spend a night to configure stuff to work properly, and who can guarantee that I won't have to revert to my current XP pro at the end..

    No, but I'm anxious to get it with a new PC
    Not worth the cost of the software but at some point I'll upgrade my computer.

    Anyone found a compelling reason to get it?

    Same reasons for me. I'm happy with XP + cygwin (to use UNIX on PC).

    Going in with some folks and buying a 3 pack (oem). I have had a 64 bit processer and want to see how it works with Vista.

    Im probably going to have to get vista since im buying a new computer and its the newest product so its not worth getting xp to upgrade to windows in a few months.
