I agree it all boils down to the “tastes” of the user as to what is efficient in an OS and what is not I guess. I hang out in a lot of  techie  forums were there is much hand-to-hand combat going on over Vista. Everything from system requirements and OS performance to Vista’s drain on laptop batteries but mostly about the Microsoft’s system requirements for Vista (some say it’s too much and some say it’s not enough.) and it’s performance.

Personally, I’d like to wait until it’s out of beta testing and gone gold before I make any decisions on whether to purchase it or not. I just hope they don’t try to sneak something in and bundle it in the final release.Micheál
