Completely agree about the hardware drivers, and especially ANYTHING 64 bit in Vista. The compatibility was bad in general, and there was much funkiness with the OS in general. Thats why I said "look / feel" rather than performance lol.

Win 7 was a big step up. However, there always had to be a Vista in order for Win 7 to be that much better. MS was always going to have these problems. It was just a case of pushing through them, IMO.
