As Quitna stated, her new computer came with Vista, and most computer manufacturers aren't developing XP drivers anymore. So with some computers (especially laptops), you can't even downgrade to XP.
Work gave me a laptop with Vista, I haven't had any problems with it, just having to learn where things are. Wireless support (for my job) is a pain, I've been fighting the security for its wireless all week. I have a mac here at home, I love it. I also have an XP box too, but I use my mac more. I love not having to worry about spyware, rootkits and anti-virus for the mac. It's possible that we'll get that stuff in the future, but I doubt it. Mac OSX is based on BSD UNIX, and using the UNIX file security, it should be pretty virus proof.
