I have Premium Vista and like it. I'm getting Windows 7 though. So Windows 7 is faster? Cool. What about security? Is it a lot safer?

Nope it isn't faster.

There's no point in upgrading to Windows 7 if you already have Vista.

Also Vista is very secure as long as you don't turn UAC off.

Besides if you don' browse porn sites, don't download warez and don't open every attachment people sent you in e-mail you shouldn't worry too much about safety of your pc.

I noticed a huge performance boost in Final Fantasy XI; it moved faster and more fluidly on Windows 7 than on Vista. That was the first thing I checked. Have you not read my other comments on this thread with me stating this? Could be that older games get a performance boost, as FFXI is based on the PS2 architecture (for the PC version, yet it is more flexible with its resolution and options).
