[Skreecheeboy]

Yes; I believe that we will see a whole new range of viruses to make us all update to Vista. Any one else smell corruption?

[funkymoped]

sound advice...

i keep my system on "auto update".

I'm staying with Windows XP for the moment.

I shall wait for Windows Vista to sort out any teething problems it may have before I update!

I did this before I changed from Windows '98 to XP, as there were a few blips with that at first too.

Anybody use Linux? I've heard it's better and I like the fact that it's absolutely free.

With any new Microsoft Operating System, always wait until Service Pack 2 has been released.

XP is perfectly fine for me, I'm sticking with it. Vista is bigger and more resource-intensive.

I use Linux for all financial dealings, online banking, etc, and I boot it from CD, you can't get safer than that.

[smudge]

Exactly whiffey - my sentiments too!

[smudge]

Apart from the last para, as I don't use Linux.
