My self-built computer up and died a few months ago and because I have no patience I bought a Dell. It's the first computer I have bought in a decade. I've always built my own. Anyway, Vista was going to be the default OS from Dell. I hade to spend over a hunred dollars more to get XP Pro and avoid Vista. (Had XP Pro before, long story.) It's funny that I had to pay more for older tech than Vista. Hmmm, maybe it's a plot. I know it is. Remember, Bill Gates once said that nobody would need more than 640K of memory in their computers, but my Dell has 2GB so it can handle Vista. Long story short: sticking with XP for now, will probably switch back to Linux soon. Vista and MS can kiss my @ss. If it wasn't for price and software issues I'd have bought a mac.
