IMO, Vista has more features than Mac, I was exploring around on one for a good few hours at my friends house the other day, he regrets asking for it. And IMO, its crap.

Not wanting to start a Windows vs. OS X argument here but OS X has had a built in photo management application (iPhoto), system wide search (Spotlight), extreme graphics acceleration (Quartz Extreme), a built in address book system (Address Book), calendaring system (iCal), and several other things for years and yet it takes Microsoft 5 years to put them in to an operating system?

You obviously didn't explore stuff very well.

I agree - and it's a pitty it took them so long to do it.

With that being said - I've been running it on my laptop since I got my free copy as a tester and installed a purchased copy on my desktop PC yesterday too.

iv'e just forked out for Windows Vista Ultimate ,,i was gonna get Home Premium but i believe With Samba shares it really only works with Ultimate, from what i read in neowin.net forums anyway

Samba shares would be fine - it's only joining a domain/active directory network that you wouldn't be able to do with Home Premium - but even with that you can still browse them.

Did you end up getting an OEM copy or paying the full $700?

i ended up buying the full Retail, , i still have yet to recieve it, so i'll more than likely install it next week

How To Setup Samba Shares With Vista Guide

I've ordered Windows Vista Home Premium - OEM, should be here soon .

may i ask if people can say were they got there copy of vista and how did they get it?, just to make it easier for me and maybe even get it from the same place.
