Vista isn´t a second Windows ME and I don´t see why it should. Just because MS took a few years to release Vista and is now back on time shedule to release a new OS.

Microsoft tried a few things out like WinFS which they failed at, UAC and Vista´s Kernel has been updated which probably took them too long. As a programmer myself I know how frustating programming can be but programming a OS is hard work.

I dunno, having tried it after Xp, it reminds me of ME, a lot of bloatware for the sake of trying to make the screen look nicer with not enough added benefits to justify the drag on resources.
Its take up seems to be slow, and now its looking almost like a stop gap till the new Windows, sorta reminds me of ME during the change to 2000.

As I work in a big company like MS it might be 
Yes, Vista seems bloated but that is just a point of view. It also seems to use a lot of resources which it actually is but that is something like preloading files. Vista caches them to load them faster. It also depends on how much RAM you have. I recommend at least 2 GB of RAM or it won´t be fun to use it. It might seem like I defend Vista or MS but that is not it. Personally I´m not using Vista at home but I have installed it numerous times and configured it also and the changes are under the hood.

Had the 2 gig of RAm, but day to day its been less stable, and had more niggles than XP on the same system. I actually like some of the feature on Vista, but day to day it drives me mad.

I remember the day as XP came out and everything was unstable too. I thought "OMG what a crappy OS pew pew" but times have changed. The SP1 coming out in a few weeks is adding stability and bug fixes. Give it a try if you have spare time Tao

Creating Vista was a huge project when every line of code was rewritten using .net tech. It may look like XP but thats just skin deep, give it time it'll be great. Its not so much the new ME and the new NT 3.51. (which looked like win3.1 but definitely wasn't)
The next release will undoubtably build upon the new base and give us all those nice features that were missed out.
Most of what is "wrong" with Vista is the drivers and they are written by other people.
I have just started studying WWF, WPF and WCF at my new job, (google them). All three, WPF in partictular will revolutionise the was program look and are written, amazing stuff not to be sniffed at. This interacts with Aero at a low level so we will see in the future apps which use the new tech, right now there aren;t any, so aero ends up loking like a white elephant, its not! Just wait and see, time will tell.
ps I am not Chad ok!
