I agree I think fragos said it best, even if vista is perfect, there is more to it that that now, theres ethics at stake, if it were just a matter of is vista good or is linux good it would be easier to choose but its more than that.

Heck, I read a clause that you can't post certain benchmarks without following some rules/consorting someone. What the **** is that? So I can't post crappy REAL benchmarks from Vista? wow... Also, you can't run it in virtual machines.
