    Vista is in beta testing. It is not available to the general public. You can't buy it, yet. The release version probably won't be out until sometime in the middle of next year.

    you can try vista by booting a demo from cd (I think you get it on microsoft.com) XP is 32 bit, Vista is 64 bit, 64 bit is compatible with 32 bit so xp stuff will work on vista, vista will not be able to use softwares for like win 98 and stuff thought so I recomend you have both OS' on your system. The reason you should choose Vista is because new Video Editing softwares and other professional softwares maybe even games will need 64 bit power. If your hardware is 64 bit and OS 32 bit thats counted as 32 bit. I recomend you buy Vista one year after it comes out. So that there are no bugs. Do not throw your XP, you will need it more than you think. (that is if you have old softwares or games)
