The problem is, everyone is a noob w/vista. I got Ultimate from my father-in-law, who gets action pack licenses from microsoft, so I didn't pay a dime for it. Unfortunately, Vista is Very different from XP. If it means anything to you, I've had Vista Ultimate since release date and I only use it on a backup PC on my home network as a media center for entertainment purposes. Other than that I stick to good old XP on my main PC. I think if you're worried about it, don't get it yet.
