If I am going to install Vista on a machine, it would have to be the Ultimate version as it has all the features from all the variations of Vista. As to why install it? My wife is beginning to whine for it now that she has used it on my MIL's machine. Me, I think it's slow as watching paint dry, but it's her PC and not mine...

To log onto a domain. Other less compelling reasons here
Thanks for the link. I think for 99% of the users on earth, Vista Ultimate is not needed except for bragging rights esp. with all the whining about Vista to begin with. For more PC minded network engineer types - I think it may be of some use in their toolbox.
I had Vista Ultimate and had many issues in general. As an overclocker, I had a hard time having vista run stable on my quad core system. I downgraded to xp and have not had one single problem and I am oc'd to 3.2 on my Q6600.

on anything modern with 2 gigs of ram... sorry XP, just cannot do what vista can.

What would that be? "Chew up all your resources?"
Ahh a brilliant reponse. Do you even know what vista does?
Lets see, xp starts... and you have all this free ram... just sitting there, doing a whole lot of nothing.
Vista starts... user normal starts IE, Firefox, outlook, word, and excel, lets preload all those programs so they start instantly.
Stupid vista user... hey all my memory is being used, vista sucks.
