Now that I have Windows Vista now, I can say that it isn't too bad. The features are pretty good, especially User Account Control. I don't have Tablet PCs or the Ultimate edition though, and the speech recognition works well in English on Home Premium.

One thing that is really irritating is...RANDOM RESTARTING!!! Drives me (and all other users) nuts!!

I still see some places selling Xp, though I've never heard this xp with vista upgrade, even from consumers.

I think you can only get Windows XP with private computer builders. Retail stores cannot sell Windows XP any more after June (or March), and corporations and large companies like Dell, Sony, etc can't do OEM-installed editions of Windows XP any more. Microsoft did this to push Vista out to new consumers.
