Quote - Well, in my "help me build a new computer" thread, the recommendation given to me by everyone said Windows XP Pro 64 Bit.  So that's what I am getting with my new computer.  I was told to stay away from Windows Vista for the time being because of the problems with it.

 

Tell me about it. I suspect that a lot of software produced by small companies just won't run under Vista because it expects to be in admin mode -- I've seen this happen in my day job, but the migration has to be done.

If you buy a machine from HP between now and the Vista Home Edition role-out, you will be able to upgrade to Vista for free, BTW.
