"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.

What are you going to do when you need to buy a new PC?
Well considering that I think the OS was already far too bloated when XP came out, I will probably junk Vista for Linux anyway. So yes they will get £15-25 of my money - if I can't find a desktop PC with Linux on it.
But actually the last time I "bought a desktop PC" I built it myself, entirely dispensing with a Windows CD licence which I've found little reason to miss in three or so years. And the next PC I buy will probably be a laptop - with Linux preinstalled.
