Yes it is shit, I work in a school and everytime one gets delivered with it on it gets reverted back to XP as we all hate it. It has no extra features to XP, it just rapes your memory and thats about it.

i still run a dual boot with vista but it is pritty crap i hardly ever use it. Sure it looks much better but it runs so much slower than xp. All those annoying security messages do my head in, tried to deactivate them and they still come up. Eats your RAM and constantly reads your HDD making your computer very slow indeed. I have 3GB of DDR2 800 Corsair RAM and it uses atleast 1GB just to run idle.

Had no probs with Ultimate (Home was useless on mine) slapped in 2gig of "readyboost" to speed it up and all was ok. couldn't get used to the sidebar so took it off.
Got xp on other 3 computers and 98se on laptop, prefer Vista.
