But Vista done well? You will fall in crazy love with Windows 7 then I tell you. maryam: That's cool :). Vista sucks from all I see and hear (with few minor exceptions). Problem is, the upgrade from Vista which was disaster to 7 is really expensive. 30 KD just for upgrade! Gimme a break! Marzouq: I think it’s wise if you can afford clean install. But Vista done well?

My Vista is giving me a hard time, at work we still run xp I still don't know my way around Vista it drives me nuts and yeah our servers are still on 2003. Marzouq, if you recently bought your Vista, you are entitled to free Windows 7 upgrade or is it downgrade :P With Microsoft always backup before installing updates / upgrading even if it's major, it's an IT rule, not that I follow it ;) Good thing is I get a free upgrade till Jan 2010 I think.

As for large media files, they should not affect software upgrades. At least, I hope not!
