Christmas Shopping: Vista Over XP?

[ronjor]

{QUOTE-> Microsoft has announced Vista's release dates. From a security standpoint what choice should consumers take during this Christmas shopping season? Most will be faced with Windows XP only or Windows XP with Microsoft's Express Upgrade option to Vista. Federico Biancuzzi interviewed a wide range of security researchers and anti-virus folks to get some consensus on the security of Vista over Windows XP for consumers, with some advice for corporate users as well. <-QUOTE} SecurityFocus (http://www.securityfocus.com/columnists/425)

Before you decide to buy or not to buy Vista, you might want to look at Vista IT's Showtimes (http://www.microsoft.com/emea/itsshowtime/result_search.aspx?product=21&x=16&y=1).

No Vista for me for at least 1 1/2 years.
