1)Its memory hogging.
2)DX 10 isn't out yet, and its still long way before it gets mainstream.
3)MAny S/W which used to work on XP, doesn't work on Vista.
4)Its hard to get dual-boot with Vista(specially, if Vista is installed first)
5)Its bloody expensive.

U guys may not know that it needs amazing 3 gb ram to perform like xp with 512mb ram.
if 3 is in ur pocket, then even why vista - get nod32/kav n be a bit more secure.
+ indexing service must be stopped in vista even else what the hell is gonna be ur HD life
+ think of torture ur vista does to lifespan of ur ram n other peripherals

Short and sweet:
If you are a <1> Power user/programmer <2> Gamer <3> New User <4> Bussiness user, Vista is the way to go. [also pirated Xp user]
If you are: a home user, a multimedia ...um.. user ,have a Xp System with original software installed. Dont upgrade.
Do you already have a computer or buying new one? It depends on wether u have AGP or PCIe slot.sanju said:planning upgrading for vista but confusing about graphics card. can anybody suggest what is the method of knowing machine total configuration and how I know which graphic card is suitable for my machine.....
At present there are not many apps for vista I strongly recommend for you wait for about 6 months atleat till directx 10 is launched(at that time dx 10 cards may also become cheap)
