So, I was having a play with Vista on my sisters new laptop and I have to say I quite liked it. Then I see all the negative press it gets, like this:

Is Vista really that bad? What problems have people on this forum had with it? Or is this just mostly press induced hysteria? Speaking for myself, I wouldn't upgrade any of my existing systems to run Vista but I'm don't think I'd be crying into my beer if a new laptop came with it pre-installed....
