I've given Vista more than a fair shot to catch my loyalty. I've been using it now for well over a year (started testing the platform with it's inital beta wave)... I've even given SP1 a shot. I have to say, I'm just very disappointed.

I'm now running vista on a 2.4 Ghz Core 2 Duo, with 3 GB ram. this thing should SCREAM! as it is, I barely get the same performance out of it as I do from my 1.3 ghz Athlon with 384Mb ram running XP.

I think I'm going to run xp as my core... I'll probably run a vmplayer copy of Vista just so I can support our clients who're stuck with it.
