This is good news. Better Vista compatibility. Im debating the notion if I want to reformat and install Vista or reformat and install XP Professional Corporate Edition. I havent exactly made up my mind yet.

Answer: Windows Server 2003 SP2
 
^ seconded, your hardwares great, but it'd slow down under vista rather than be an improvement. (no DX10, no high speed ram to make up for the extra usage, etc)

server 2K3 has the core of vista without the extras... so it should be quite responsive.

(Of course, feel free to dual boot :D )
 
My firefox updated automaticly, but ever sence the update every time i do a search it will take me back to the last page i visited before the updates were installed - time to uninstall and reinstall i guess

No such problems here, probably just a glitch that won't affect many people.
 
Im thinking of dual booting. I need to get me another HD or two. Id like to put Ubuntu and Mandrake on my system as well. Just to get a feel for them.

I got Windows Server 2000 or Windows 2000 Professional or whatever it is on my laptop here at work. Its alright but Id like to give Vista a go. I dont think it would hurt much and my Ram can oc well. Id think Id be alright. Im not on DX10 graphics yet, but I will be here in the next few months.
