If you are using older peripherals, you may have driver issues when running Vista. Another thing I don't like about Vista is that its a memory HOG. The OS alone takes up a lot more system memory than XP. BUT if you buy a new Pre-assembled PC, you're probably going to get stuck with Vista. The problem with Vista (and any new OS) is drivers.

I love the new vista, and am willing to go through some of the pain of an early adpter.

You usually can't get dual boot systems from the big box stores (BestBuy, CompUSA) but can always purchase a system and have a computer repair/tech place install the 2nd operating system for you. Sometimes this is cheaper than actually buying the computer from the repair/tech place since they seem to be a little spendier from what I've seen in Portland at least.Definitely a great suggestion for those that want to jump into Vista, but still need to run the apps that aren't ready yet.
