I dont think you鈥瞝l gain a thing. All Windows suck, and Vista is just a pretty version of XP.

If you really want a better OS, go and get a Mac. In fact Vista is just a failed copy of Mac OS X.

If you still want tu upgrade to Vista, download this app.

Hope it helps. I鈥瞝l apreciate the 10 points

Windows Vista (from what I've heard and seen) is mostly all eye candy (not a whole lot to gain) and without decent hard ware it will be VERY slow on your computer (yes, even the internet explorer part of it). If your computer doesn't have at least 1 GB of RAM and a decent processor (dual core would be best), then I would not recommend doing this.
You can get answers from www.microsoft.com/vista. From Microsft's perspecitve it's recommended. From an IT perspective it's recommended that you wait to see how the industry accepts it. Normally 6 months.
There are four main things. One is that Vista will be more hacker resistant. Supposedly it will be faster to load than Windows XP. Third is that it's going to come with direct X 10 allowing computer programmers to create more realistic images (direct X might come out for Windows XP). Fourth I think that Vista will work with 64 bit processing. Vista should run on the latest computers.
This may help to answer your questions, just click on it and go through it.

This may depend on what type of PC you have. If you have an older, slower PC, you may not get the gains from Vista that others will get. One of the major drivers for home users will be the new transparent interface (it just looks cool), but if you are not running a fast enough system, you won't be able to use the transparent interface anyway, so no cool stuff for you. The other benefits were outlined below. I agree with the admin's recommendation to wait a few months to see how the industry reacts before deciding to go forward or not. If a lot of software is built which makes use of the ability to use the 64bit architecture, then maybe then it makes sense to upgrade your PC and your OS. In that case, you could save the cash of spending money on two OSs (the installed one and the upgrade) by buying the PC with Vista pre-installed. I have a feeling that most users who upgrade older PCs won't be so happy with the upgrade. Another benefit was that IE7 would be pre-installed, but you can get IE7 now by downloading it from Micro$oft.
