Same here. Got a new Dell Desktop back in February and I LOVE Vista. We use the computer for internet, photo storage and photo editing and it has not given us one problem the entire time we have had it. It is a lot faster to use than XP also (this is partly due to more RAM though too).

I just bought a new desktop with vista. I’m having some compatibility issuse with some older software/hardware, but other than that, it’s not a bad system. Definitely nowhere near as bad as it’s reputation.

Yeah, my 5 year old wireless keyboard and mouse weren’t compatible, but my printer, cameras, and all of my software were fine. I just use the wired keyboard and mouse that came with the computer and threw away the wireless stuff.
