Have you moved to Vista yet?
So Sp1 is now on automatic updates, and its been available elsewhere for a while. Have you made the move from XP yet?

It's been a month already using Vista with quite a good experience but I'm actually thinking on moving back to XP 'cause of some compatibility issues, I'm waiting for SP3 first impressions.

I'm dual booting... XP Pro 32-bit and Vista Business 64-bit, but I usually use XP so I voted No. I have Vista and use Vista, but I haven't really moved to Vista and I doubt I will anytime soon.

Used Vista Home Premium 32-bit since launch and within the last fortnight moved to home premium 64-bit. Barely had a problem since day one and can hand on heart say XP caused me more problems.
On a separate note I now see that the top 3dmark 06 record is set on a vista system.

Have XP running on several machines, Vista X64 on the others.
Vista x64 is superior in almost all regards. I will keep saying it till im blue in the face.

I've got XP on some boxes, but I have bought some new PCs and they all had Vista on them.
