    Call me a thick b*stard but can someone please tell me why I'd wanna be using Vista? It's Microsoft's newest OS, but really what does it do better than XP?

    You don't. Win95 was a must-have upgrade. 98 was useful. ME was ****. 2000 was good. XP was meh (I only upgraded last year), Vista is a load of pants.
