Hi Kemical
Yes, I like vista as well and I have spent time & money ensuring that it works well on my rig.
I am not too keen at the thought of splashing out more cash next year for another OS that might or might not prove to be any better than vista.
My own view is that Microsoft could have put more resources into improvng & upgrading vista rather than appear to give up and rush in another OS.
I will certainly not be looking to rush out and "splash my cash"next year wthout getting some indication that any new OS will be around for at least three years.

Bill Gates sounds so mysterious when he says we'll have a new version, new version of what ? Windows Vista... Like it or not, I think they've invested to much in Vista to give it up right away. At least another 3 years of Vista. I don't think they can get Windows 7 out as early as next year.
