Simple really: Vista - working fine for you, yes or no?

Not looking for long-winded testimonials, or rants about Redmonds latest uber-spawn-of-hell, just a simple Yay or Nay, and a SHORT statement if you please!

Yes, Home Premium installed smoothly, all running fine. No problems with anything....

Honestly, I recommend Vista over XP; Runs 10x smoother and faster for me, and the Performance updates actually increased performance.

Vista Ultimate 32bit

Vista Ultimate 32 bit here. Runs flawlessly and looks much better than any previous Windows installment.

Maybe this should be limited to people that have used it?

When I tried it a few months ago it had my GPU fan at a constant 100% due to bad drivers. So nay.

My point was that the majority of nays will be from people who haven't used it recently or at all.
