It is quite clear that the author does not like Vista and therefore saying the comparison is not biased is garbage. It is also clear that the author has spent little time with Vista given that the only features they can mention are those that everybody knows about. To be clear I ran XP for years and I'm running Vista now. In some cases it is a good choice, in others it isn't. The author tries to say Vista is a bad idea all around.

Let's cover the things the author conveniently skipped over.

1) BitLocker. If your computer gets stolen the information on it is safe even with an OS reformat. Not available without going to a third-party.
2) Parental controls. I have kids who don't need to be playing certain games or viewing certain web sites. XP's implementation was poor at best and didn't allow for limiting programs. Vista allows me to not only configure controls per user (so my wife can browse CNN without getting prompted for a password) but also control what games each can play. Again, not available without going to a third-party. Sure there is GP but what home user's can do that?
3) RunAs. Please, XP's implementation was half-baked. Unless you set the right options in Explorer you couldn't even start up a different Explorer instance. And then there was the whole command line thing. Sure IT departments might have a tool to do it but shouldn't it work out of the box?
4) Window Switching. You have to admit that the Win3.0 way of tabbing through open windows was pretty poor. If you had more than one instance of an app open you couldn't tell which one you were using.
5) Sidebar. While not critical it is really convenient. Sort of like a tray icon but with more information. Since most people have either multiple monitors or 10 billion pixel resolutions the space doesn't matter that much.
6) Reliability Monitor. A great tool for tracking reliability of your machine to try and find patterns in apps or the OS.
7) ETW. Available for a while but not really accessible until now. This gives IT and technical folks a lot more information on things happening inside Windows and apps.
8) Task Scheduler. The latest version gives you a lot more control over how and when things start and how they handle errors. It also works around issues with Windows Defender and startup apps. More importantly it allows you to run admin tools from non-admin accounts without requiring a password.

There are a lot of things I don't like about Vista. Here's just a small list:
1) Slow. Hopefully post-SP1 fixes will resolve this. I have the fastest PC you can buy and it takes forever to start up.
2) Drivers. Poor driver support. This is partially MS'es fault and partly third-party. Still XP and all other OS releases go through the same thing.
3) Services. There are way too many services that run by default. Why exactly do I need a service to support the F1 key? Why do I need a service for communicating with wMP when I don't even have an MP3 player? Why do I need a MCE service when I don't use Media Center? How about the various versions of audio support, performance enhancement and networking components? Too many services => bloat and performance issues.
4) DirectSound. MS removed direct hardward support. While I agree with the idea I think it came too quickly as most games will simply fail because of it. Makes your $300 sound card behave like a $10 one. Fortunately companies like Creative have Alchemy or OpenAL to resolve the issue.
5) Memory. Vista is bloated and it wears out the HDD while running. MS needs to fix this and adding new features isn't it. I think the OS still needs to go through another feature-cut phase to remove features that not everybody needs, or at least expose simplified controls to do it. Something like how W2K3 works would be good.

So is Vista the right choice for everyone? No. For IT groups, maybe. For devs and techies, probably. For home users with kids and newer games, yes. For novices and those who want to play Where is Carmen Sandiego, no.

I bought a laptop a year ago. I was FORCED to take it with Vista. I am a developer (and coder). The UI is "purdy" but it's so non-productive I won't even use the machine for development. It's now a dedicated iPod server. I also use it as a cup coaster. In another year I will probably test it's flight capabilities as a frisbee.

12 gb for an OS? OS stands for operating system, not Overlord System. My XP machine will literally run circles around this Vista machine even with the bells and whistles turned off. What's worse, my XP machine has a slower processor core and slower memory. Did anyone at MS actually have to use this thing before they released it?

My advice to anyone that actually uses their computer for productive purposes: stick with XP until Windows 7 SP2. That's probably August 2012, less than 4 months from the end of the world according to the Mayan calendar. :-)

Comparing the content of your comment to the content of the article I would have to say yours lacks substance. If you think it's FUD, why don't you back it up with some proof.

To add additional FUD as you call it:

MS has been using tactics to coerce users to use Vista because, as the article states, there is no legitimate reason for most people to upgrade from XP.

MS normally supports their current OS and the previous OS. Why are they sun setting XP and leaving only Vista?

Normally an older generation of software is cheaper than the newer version. Pricewatch.com currently shows windows XP selling for 10-50% more than comparable Vista versions. Perhaps to compel people to buy Vista.

MS Finally released Halo 2 for the PC after two years as an Xbox only game. This was probably done to boost Xbox sales as the original Halo was released for multiple platforms. Originally the game would only play on Vista (are you seeing a trend) but after a hack came out to allow it to be played on XP, the software vendor promised to release an official patch for XP compatibility. There are other MS PC games being released as "Vista" only and I hope they get back-ported so that I can play them.

I am very happy with XP and look forward to the next OS version. I hope MS has learned something from the release of Vista.

If you compare Windows 2000 professional with the latest service packs at the time of the XP release to the original version of XP you could of written the same article.

My advise would be,if you have a PC that is more then a 3 years old and you do not have a good video card then Vista is not for you.

If you have a newer machine, especially one with a dual core processor then you should consider moving to Visa.

Vista 64 is the real future. If you compare Vista 64 to XP 64 vista blows it away. I have a PC at home set up as dual boot Win XP Pro 32 and Vista 64 and I have to say I never use my XP install anymore. In fact, performance wise my Vista install is an order of magnitude faster then XP. Vista 64 takes full advantage of my Video card and Dual core processor.
