Ditto. That said, I installed it personally so that I would get up to speed on it for when we would have to switch, and I'm glad I did. It is actually better than XP at some things. Of course, Win7 is better than Vista at everything, so I'm changing to it as soon as I can find some time.
Win7 will be released in October, I believe, so if you can wait until then I'd recommend it. Otherwise, go with Vista. Now that it has a few patches under it's belt and there is good documentation and tools for making it less annoying, it's really pretty OK. XP is fine, but it's on it's way out and Microsoft is going to find a way to pull the plug on it.
