Still running XP?
Xiong Chiamiov:
When I built my desktop, Vista had been out for about a year, so it wasn't really that stable. Now, I haven't upgraded, because I have no need to; all I use XP for is testing Windows applications. Also, I refuse to put more than a gig stick in either of my primary computers, and if I can't run a version of Windows in a virtual machine without using swap space, then I don't want to use it.

My new computer came with Vista. Haven't had serious issues. Disable UAC and you don't have to deal with those annoying popups asking to double confirm every action you take. Stability-wise... it's worked the entire time it's been on. I haven't had anything I can remember not run on Vista either. There are some minor annoyances here and there, but not something that puts XP far above it.
molbjerg:
XP here, I only moved from Win2000 about a year ago.
I'll probably go to windows-7 for 64 bit soonish.
Vista sucks monkey balls. And for the record, if you say vista rocks, you are embaressing yourself.

Why? Even with XP you'll see noticeable speed gains with more memory.
