except for some proprietary apps that are up to the companies themselves to update, if they so choose, and some very old hardware, Vista is nearly 100% compatible with XP and closing what gap is left everyday - in fact, the usual complaint against Vista now is that it is slow and 'bloated', as you yourself said - well it seems it isn't slow at all and as for bloat - so what if it takes up more HD space or a marginal amount of extra RAM? XP was written for machines with 128 to 256 meg of RAM and 5 gig hard drives more than seven years ago!
Face it, Vista isn't the POS you thought and hoped it was and you just can't accept it.
