for security purpose i'd prefer vista..but because the popularity of xp sp2 is wide , i still can't give up on xp ..knowing that most atacks on local systems & networks could run through sp2 though lol

I've tried to use Vista once but I switched back on XP since I find some features of vista complicated and also, I don't like the compatibility mode offered in Vista when you are going to open files in lower version on windows. In our place, most computers are still in XP and I am very familiar with the features of XP. Vista offers wide range of compatible downloads in the net but I think I am not ready for it yet.

Most people would pick Vista simply because it's the newest one, But they are all wrong. Vista might look good and such and might be a little more powerful, Although it has so many bugs and errors. XP would be the better choice, Pretty much no errors or bugs and if you want nice appearance, many programs out there can make XP look like Vista.
