Despite having 2 computers with Vista and 0 with XP, I much prefer XP. For me it's not bugs or memory problems that are to blame, Vista is just so much slower than XP at everything.

Just as an example, shutting down Vista can take up to 45 seconds or even more when it takes 10 secs in XP. Compare the number of processes running in a clean Vista install compared to a clean XP SP2 and the number is doubled.

Another thing is that explorer (when browsing and handling files) behaviour has changed and is much less practical than XP.

All in all besides the fancy graphics and everything, it seems more like a step backwards than forwards when it comes to usability.
