Everything about the system just seems completely unnecessary. I can do everything I need to with XP and it runs better. So why should I have to upgrade a PC to us an OS that lets me do less stuff than XP?

You shouldn't. I'm not a Vista supporter, but i'm not a Vista shunner either, because I havn't used Vista for more than 5 minutes (i was in a store for a few minutes playing about with it whilst waiting for my brother to buy something). I don't use Vista because I don't need to, I have no DX10 games.

The only thing you have with Vista thats even half decent is DX10 and that at the moment is being ported for XP..

Where did you find this out? If Microsoft are indeed porting it to XP, then there goes one of the big selling points for Vista for many people.

You run Vista on a 2.4Ghz w/1GB ram and it runs smoothly and I run XP on a P2 400 w/256MB DDR133 yet we're getting the same things. I'd prefer not to spend money on upgrading that computer to do something its already doing perfectly fine.

That's because XP is 7 years old. A very little percentage of computers now in use are P2's, so why should Vista be designed to run well on them when it should be designed in the knowledge that most systems are atleast P4 standard.
However, I agree that if Vista does make un-needed features compulsary then that's crazy. I will need to try Vista for some time and establish my own opinions before judging it. All that I have posted here comes from me not having used the OS, so I concider myself unbiased.
