Are you the sort of person that has to buy the latest thing as soon as it is released or do you prefer to sit back and let "fools rush in"? Windows Vista will be released early next year...will you be buying it?

I have to see it first. For one, my computer as it is now will probably not support Vista (it was state of the art 2 or 3 years ago...), and I'm also going to wait for MS to release critical security patches before I upgrade. Even when I upgrade, I will probably let XP stay, and have a dual-boot enviornment, just as backup .

Let the fools rush in, and the smart PCHF folks sit and wait .
