If you allready have it I say keep it. I'm used to XP and dont really like vista right now. I'm sure if I had it and spent time getting used to it I'd like it. _________________

My pc came with a vista disc but no one has said one thing about vista that makes me think its worth installing it, if any thing it sounds like its just a pain to update all the aap's that vista wont run.
