People gave up and moved to XP because they had no choice. Now they do.

Professor Oak, why aren't you wearing any pants?
I don't know about you, but when me and my brother got to try XP, we decided to stick with 98/Me because XP it was still too glitchy, and didn't have enough advantages to compensate for it's instability. As Service packs were released, along with many other "fixes", the O.S. became stable, and worth upgrading to.
Back then, there weren't that many issues with XP, it just wasn't worth the money, time and hassle it took to "upgrade" it mostly... Now, however, Vista is a complete bag of failure - As of now -. The compatibility sucks a big fat cocksicle, it's a ram sink, seems to mess up the most basic of programs that weren't built specifically for vista "from the ground" all of that on top of the same problem XP had ("just not worth it") all in favor of a new look Macintosh has been using for years...
In time, however, If Microsoft has any sense, they'll fix the crappy thing, user hardware will inevitably be upgraded with time, and Vista's ram eating properties will become less and less significant, and eventually we'll all move on.
However, as of now, Vista can fuck right off because I'd only use it as a frisbee or coaster...

XP bought tangible performance and architectural benefits to the table. M$ finally had realized that there was something else out there other than Intel and XP incorporated that. As a tech for some 18 years, I can honestly say that I cannot find ONE worthwhile reason in terms of performance to move to Vista and the single architectural benefit - that of moving device drivers out of the kernel - is offset by the myriad performance sucking "enhancements", useless services (media streaming server???) and eye candy that litter this OS. The stability issues are yet another issue - XP out of the box behaved far better.
Wait for Windows 7 - perhaps M$ will have learned a lesson by then.

Talent isn't defined on what the talent is or how long you have had it. But how you use it and what you can achieve by using it. THIS is what defines a talent.
From where I'm sitting, the replacement isn't breaking - it's broken. M$ did their job TOO well - and now the flash and dash just ain't cutting it because there's no substance to it.
