My first reaction was "This guy is an idiot". But I think you may have just
misunderstood. Perhaps he was saying that, for the cost of him installing
it, you might be better off waiting a couple years for Windows 7 SP1. Or
something.

Anyway, MS has no intention of killing off Vista before XP, but like all
versions of Windows, it's an incremental upgrade. I wouldn't buy a new
computer today without it. The included UAC is about the only protection you
have against malware these days.

PS The version you want is Vista Home *Premium*. Do NOT get Vista Home.
Maybe that's what he meant?
