Windows "It's all too easy to get caught up in the million dollar marketing engine as we approach the consumer release of Windows Vista, so lets not forget that it isn't the second coming, and by all counts is an upgrade you can do without. There are many lists out there on why to get Vista, so here's ours on why not to." Update: I have written a rebuttal on my weblog. Update II: Another rebuttal.

Absolutely. For now, but the crux will probably be DirectX-10. A pitfall of propriatary (sp) software, as always. Atleast if you game. Certainly, you can feel the gentle squeeze against us 2K users? (the finest of the Windows OS's, I believe, perhaps barring 2K3-server). MSN 7.5/Live/etc. all don't work now, it's only going to get worse... and the worst, it's an arbitrary lock-out. grr.
