Vista.... NEVER (Score 1)

I work for a school system with 21,000 student/teacher machines. We are just now moving to XP (we REQUIRE stable platforms) and some of our machines choke on the amount of software loaded with XP on a 512MB box (5 years old). For us to go to Vista would be a FOUR YEAR conversion and cost much bucks for the hardware requirements. Remember we are funded from YOUR taxes so we have to get by with minimum platforms, unlike a business.At home I have a high end machine with a vista license running XP, and will NEVER run Vista. Oh, one more thing, with multiple (up to 200 user profiles in the labs) user environment and the user controls in vista, it is my belief that Vista would be a HUGH impact in our "customers" usage especially with the k-4 grade users. Try vista with your kids..... BTW we support the 21k(soon to be 22k) machines with 4 engineers, 12 Network specialists and 12 PC technicians (28 people/22000 machines=786 machines/person in 76 locations)
