I did try Vista... for like 3 days... then decided to buy a Macbook Pro and upgrade to Leopard...
Arrived last week - played around quite a bit and installed things like neoOffice, netbeans, etc... today installed Basilisk with Mac OS 8 :p
Tomorrow will look into installing AUE :-)
Not looking back at windows at all.
@adoney: I tried Vista on my Core 2 Duo 6600 with 2gb of mem.... not on any old machine...
