I pretty much agree with you spyhopsian.
The real problem for me with vista is I'm satisfied enough with xp and I want to maintain compatability with several of my old titles like Pro Pinball Timeshock! or Systemshock 2 which I had to scour the net to find an xp compatability patch. I don't think there are ones for these old titles yet on vista.
Vista is nice but I don't want to spend the time familiarizing myself with all the nuances of a new OS. Vista simply doesn't offer me enough over XP to go through the hassle of getting everything working just the way I like.
IMO Microsofts main problem was letting everyone settle in and get accustomed to XP and waiting 6 years before bringing out a new OS. People are so happy, fat and sassy with their current OS they don't want to move unless the new one offers something not just good but really really great over XP.
