Forbes takes a look at Vista, and writes: "More than five years in the making, more than 50 million lines of code. The result? A vista slightly more inspiring than the one over the town dump. The new slogan is: 'The Wow Starts Now', and Microsoft touts new features, many filched shamelessly from Apple's Macintosh. But as with every previous version, there's no wow here, not even in ironic quotes. Vista is at best mildly annoying and at worst makes you want to rush to Redmond, Wash. and rip somebody's liver out." They also look at Office 2007.

Givas,
That's a good question. My reason for including Linux as something to evaluate before Mac was because Linux is a free install, Mac you have to buy a new computer. So if you installed Ubuntu and ran Gnome (which IMO is a fairly consistent desktop) and were happy then I think that's a nice easy solution that was quickly attained. But if you installed it and hated it, then my next suggestion would be to get your hands on a Mac and see what you thought.
