I just wish that I could get to grips with .net, and I wish that Vista wasn't such a huge pain in the backside. If it wasn't for the fact that IE7 is buggy with FTP sites, .net isn't all that accessible, too many restrictions with Vista, including no WaveOutMix, the menus were different, and that some of the games I play everyday can't be played on Vista, I'd probably upgrade now, since I've heard it's got better SAPI voices, better cd writing capabilities, better DVD playing accessibility features, etc, etc. I mean, the fact that you have to be administrator to install things, and not just an administrative user. I think that's going way too far, and the parental control filtering stuff.
