I know that the thread is originally about single-user non-commercial use of Vista, but I have been involved in a number of commercial projects over the last year, where the client was thinking about Vista, but has not implemented it because of:
- the cost to upgrade PCs
- the training cost (end user and support)
- The lack of any perceived benefit (who cares what it LOOKS like!)
- the lack of support for peripherals
- the lack of support for business apps
The last is one of the biggest problems, with a number of applications (client side) from large vendors simply not being released yet for Vista (Oh, we'll probably have a beta by the end of the year...).
So I admit that much of my bias against Vista is based on corporate / commercial rather than home use.
