Yes, I agree with Chris, the bugs are worked out.
However, I have found no advantages in Vista, and you do have to put
time into learning it, so I have to say why put yourself to trouble
unless you're the type that just likes exploring new technology.
I am that type, and still haven't found anything in Vista to make me say
"wow! that's really worth it!"
