Default What is so great about Vista

Ok this is a rant. non cussing ans such. But for StepMania and gamming I think Vista needs a tune up bad. And because of this I'm writing this to anyone.

What isnt great about vista?
Its network stack isnt a firey offence to man.
Its got bluetooth support
Its pretty for a change.
It saves power over XP.
It loads my programs faster than XP.
It actually has drivers in it.
DirectX 10.
No real pressing need for Antivirus.

and Stepmania works great, Team Fortress 2 works better on vista than on XP on my machine.

You're funny. About as funny as the millions of "themes" made for Vista that are just different levels of transparency.

Uh, I am extremely organized, what I meant was Startsearch lets me hit the windows key and type like 2-4 characters to start my program of choice and IT IS FUCKING AWESOME.

Which is my favorite advantage of Vista

Better overall security over XP.

Pretty much a no-brainer in this aspect.

And probably something else

It's 64-bit version is more desirable and more stable than that of it x64 predecessor.

Nuff said

I've had my laptop for around 2 years without any virus protection installed, finally scanned it for viruses about a week ago. I had 1 trojan horse that, as far as I can tell, wasn't even doing anything.
