Hi Damien and all,
Let me refraze the Vista question so my question is more clear. I am 
trying to figure out how many of you will be upgrading to Vista over the 
next year, and not gather data on how many are planning to stick with 
XP. XP works fine with .Net 3 and DirectX so no compatibility issues 
there I can see.
However, Windows 2000 does have known issues with .Net 3, and one reason 
if I choose to put more future long-term support into Vista I can not 
garentee 2000 support.
Damien, as far as you upgrading or not upgrading that is a question of 
time. In 5 years any new system you will buy will be totally Vista 
compatible. It will be unlikely anything earlier than Vista will work on 
such a system. Who knows,in the next year that can happen. Point is, 
sooner or later the change is inevitable unless you plan to buy one of 
Del's Linux notebooks or a Mac, etc Vista is our future like it or not.
