RE: Running the numbers on Vista
Office 2007 is a very worthy upgrade; though I hadn't upgraded since Office 2000 Developer Edition...

Vista is nice overall, but does have some problems I hope SP1 rectifies.

My new laptop has Home Premium on it; I've toyed with upgrading to Ultimate so I can use Bitlocker and drive encryption... For that I will wait until SP1...

Plus, given the price of Vista retail boxes (full or upgrade), few should be surprised at the lack of sales.

Oh, all the articles I've read about how Vista ripped off OS X are a crock. If anything, Vista borrowed from Linux. Like with Apple, what else is new?
