Is vista better than windows XP?

I'm running a dual boot system XP pro 64bit and Vista ultimate 64bit both are very fast. I have an AMD 6400 dual core and 8 gigs of ram. I do find myself on Vista most of the time. Mainly because Vista is my default system.  ;D

Just installed Visa 32 bit  home premium over winxp and believe me me ,after you have gone through all the updates and changes you will be well used as to how Vista works.
We were all reluctant to change from win98 to winxp but found xp to be excellent in the long run. Vista is going along the same route and it will be the way to go. Graphics are excellent, and as time goes on we will all get the hang of it. Vista 64 is a bit of an overkill for the average home pc user.But! everyone has a choice, Unless you are into massive gaming or video  8gb  ram is not needed. 2-4gb is more than enough. Most of the higher bench marks  on Futuremark come from 2x1 GB ram

I've all two on the same pc. Vista is very nice, but normally I use XP, becouse it's a friendly operatve system. Iìve to say that Vista is a little faster than XP, but it's not enough tested.

ciao ;)

Its starting to get up to performance levels with xp. I had HD partitioned to both xp and vista but now sticking with vista. Its getting better day by day.Like everything else we move on. XP will always be one of the good ones if you just need basics,(Dont no whether SP3 will keep it going)  but anyone that plays games will be pressured into upgrading into vista because game manufacturers are pumping out material that will only play on vista platform. Money.lol.
cheers

well this is a question that still has mixed reactions to it

But we should not forget that XP had similar reactions in the beginning with lots of criticism until SP2 was out which improved XP a lot.

Time will tell about Vista too.
