If someone can get Vista that would rule!
I have Windows XP SP1 and I hear it's full of bugs and crap, I tried downloading SP 2, but I don't wanna install it incase it fucks everything up.

Cool.

But can all the programmes run on it?
I'm guessing only a few of the "major" ones are compatiable with it as of now....?

How much time is left on the download? Might wait until you've done it to see if it works.

What computer will you be running it on?

I believe Karl is running Linux now, and has converted to the gay side looking at his sig... eww.

Also, Elliot, shall reply to your PM later, sorry I keep forgetting but it might take some explaining... haha, nothing bad though.
