I´m one of those people that hava a problem if i can´t run vista on Virtual Machines, im not going to buy the expencive super duper special edition. i usaly get(even if i dont want it) my MS software when i buy computers, i use windows for playing games and i need windows sometimes for some programing classes where .Net is used, but ihave had a lot of problems with .Net and other IDEs that make windows crash and breaking, forcing me to reinstall, but sins i started using VM and a clean windows install in that WM my problems are gone. another problem i will have is that i usaly upgrade my hardware all the time and try difrent sulutions with harddrives (diffrent raid systems etc.) i dont know if that will work in Vista or not, but if it doesent work what will i do then? change to *nix or buy a shitload of vista licences? (a hint: i dont have a shitload of money)
