Have you found anything in Vista that would make it a really compelling choice of XP? |

Vista seems a bit more robust in that when you do something stupid and stall out a program, the computer locks up less and you don't have to do a hard reboot. |

Any software that locks up because of something the user did should be discarded. It's junk and its programmer was an idiot. |

Once again, Joe Groceryboy enters the fray with his broad based opinions on all things idiotic. It's almost like Joe has a PhD in Idiocy andIinformed Choice. It's like if the end user doesn't read the manual, does something that the computer can't do and it's the programmer's fault. |

I've got 30 seconds. That should be plenty. |
