lol. no. Was just checking on my torrents on my Mac and getting a web interface up and running for my torrent client. Mac is pretty much used for torrenting, light browsing, and as a file server. It's too slow for me to want to run constantly. (G5 1.6GHz lol) I've been far too spoiled by my quad core. lol.

Windows XP SP3 right now, works better with my Tascam, Integrated and Sonar 7. I tried to dual-boot OS X with XP, but my ICH10R isn't yet fully supported I don't think.

XP Pro SP2 on main rig
New rig will be XP Pro SP2 (32bit) and Vista Ultimate (32bit) on dual boot.

Unless you are getting Ultimate for free its not worth it. Just get Basic.. Home Premium if you like the aero crap but I have ultimate and never use the aero.

Vista Ultimate x64! ^_^ I will say that on a PC made this side of 2004 should support x64 just fine, assuming the CPU is x64, and people should just take the leap. It's really quite painless (minus some printers and stuff) unless you MUST use 16 bit programs, but that's what Virtual PC is for, isn't it?

Vista x86 home premium here.
Does aero use that much resources? i think it makes vista look better.

next to nothing. Most of my low end systems actually ran better with aero on, than off (the OS was more responsive when dragging windows around, as the video card did it not the CPU)

Server 2003 Standard x64 Edition
XP Professional x64 Edition XP Professional Vista Home Premium x86 By the way, x64 is abbreviated for x86-64. IA-64 is the closest to true x64 architecture by Intel.
