So i start my post ( which will be very informative?!)
After XP getting for me too "old" , i personally switched to a macbook and i'm happy with that.
For the old box of my GF ( Celeron 2,6 Ghz, 256 MB RAM!, using intel onboard gfx... 32 mb of the 256...)
i used xubuntu and it works , OK!
So i dont miss Vista!
My Blizzard Games run under OSX, The rest Games i "Could" miss i use a console.
So for me Vista is pretty much useless.
