At least AmiBroker runs fine on Vista. I have Vista on my
notebook and it is just fine.
As long as you run 32 bit Vista and you disable some new
features like SuperFetch and UAC,
Vista behaves pretty much the same as XP.
Most problems people have with Vista come from UAC (user
access control) that creates compatibility
issues for old applications. As soon as you turn that off
(from Control Panel) there are no problems in installing programs from even
from 1998.
The RAM consumption people are afraid of is
a result of superfetch feature that loads every program you
use frequently on startup, but it can be easily disabled.
Sooner of later Microsoft will tell people that XP is no
longer supported.

I've heard too many complaints about vista to
even consider it at this point. Most vendors will supply XP if you
insist. Why be a beta tester for Micorsoft's latest?

Subject: [amibroker] OT: XP /
Vista
I am about to buy a laptop ... wondering if I
should get it with XP or Vista.
I am quite happy with my XPs so I'd rather stay
with it unless there is some compelling reason to migrate to
Vista.
Appreciate any feedback
