Ooh, good luck, hon. One of my coworkers got a new laptop with Vista on it, and tried to put XP on it, only to find that the company hadn't written any drivers for much of the laptop hardware that worked with anything earlier than Vista. He's stuck with it now.

What I have heard about Vista:
it sucks. It sucks a lot. It has no compelling new features. It sucks. It's shiny, but it sucks. It has DRM components that will suck your processor dry and give you the user no benefit. And it sucks.

We bought a new laptop for the new guy a couple weeks ago which had Vista on it. After struggling with it for more than a week trying to get it on our network, and being told by HP that we had to apply a patch to EVERY OTHER COMPUTER ON OUR NETWORK to get it to work, we returned it. They got him a demo unit which was still running XP. It was the only XP machine left in the store.
