My grandmother has got it installed on her computer. I'm going to use her PC and try it out so I'm still debating as to whether I'll upgrade or not.

Vista doesn't supprot anything yet, there won't be any drivers supported for it, or for graphic card's under 9200 for ATI. I will wait a while before I get it, that way, I can actually get the best from it.
I don't know about you guys but i don't like it when people jump into a thread and say something that we know they don't know what they are talking about.
Afterall if there are no drivers for Vista then why did most of the hardware (had a small problem with the wireless card) accept vista?

Your saying I do not know what I talking about?
I installed Vista on my PC on sunday, went to download the drivers, could I find any Vista Supported drivers for ATI Radeon 9200 Graphic Card? No, I couldn't, I couldn't even install any updates for AVG because it wasn't supported, the audio didn't work at all, as there was no driver's for it. So please don't say I don't know what I am talking about, afterall I am an employee for a company that is a Premier Provider for Intel, which has been for the last 4-5 years. *-)

But your agruement saying there is no drivers for Vista is invalid. One of my friends installed Vista today and all the drivers for everything was downloaded.

On an offtopic note: You need to cut the "Your arguement is invalid" BS. It doesn't make you look any smarter. It just makes you come off like an asshole. -----
His argument IS valid. He stated that there are no drivers for ATI cards under the 9200 series, which is a huge chunk of video cards that are left essentially unsupported. There are also problems with drivers for a few wireless cards, as you stated. They go into infinite connect/disconnect loops. Therefore, a majority of required hardware is being left unsupported up to this point.
So please stop acting like a fanboy and directing people to complete a currently un-wise upgrade. Vista isn't as stable as XP right now and won't be for several months. Its a rushed, glorified BETA with many bugs still remaining. Let microsoft do what they always do and release a service pack fixing the release bugs before you go upgrading.

I want Home Premium Vista, especially after doing the demo Vista that was on the Microsoft website.
But I downloaded the program and it told me I need more RAM and a new graphics card to run AERO and a DVD-ROM drive to install it too.

LOL :haha: I never once said that you were a fanboy, I was merely pointing out that you were saying that I was acting like one, when I was just saying how my own friend's installation of Vista included all the drivers? If anything, I'd choose OS X over Vista.
Though, wouldn't you agree that for being an initial OS launch, Vista is pretty stable?
