Learning Vista? What the heck? If you don't like the or have problems With Windows Aero, you can set it to Windows XP look. I for one think it is much simpler to use. But then I am used to Linux, Mac and XP before hand and have a decent understanding how OS's work.
I suggest you take a look on a computer demo at Best Buy or Fry's Electronics. Move around on the desktop and see how effortlessly it is to move around. The only thing I do not like it wants you to confirm to run application in Admin mode, which can be a good thing.

What is you like about it over XP PRO? I don't want to spend the time the new OS learning curve would require only to have something prettier only to have an OS that costs more, doesn't work any faster than the one I'm presently using. If you'll examine MSFT's history every other OS has been troublesome. I agree with Joe User. If you have to learn everything over you may as well get an Apple. Remember the average end luser doesn't care about hardware like we do as they just want the darned thing to run. Vista has files & folders relocated via name space & extra links that it makes it almost impossible to find the real files just like a Mac. A Vista or Mac system for me, NO THANKS. ---------------+-------------- I'm a geek that loves to tweak.
