Should you upgrade to Windows Vista? If you are thinking about upgrading from XP to Vista my general answer would be no, mainly because I have heard some problems and issues from people who upgraded from XP to Vista. Although I would definitely recommend getting a new computer with Vista installed.
If you have an older computer running Windows XP I would stick with that instead of upgrading to Vista. If XP is running good on that machine why take the chance of installing Vista, many users have troubles with older hardware when they try to run Vista. I think the best thing to do is stick with XP until you get a new computer.
I have been running Vista since day one and I like it much better than XP I haven’t had any problems with hardware issues because I built my PC with all new parts. There were one or two programs that was not compatible with Vista but that is not the case anymore and with Service Pack 1 for Vista coming in a few months things are looking great on the Vista side.
