That shiny new laptop that I bought (I believe I had just got it when I met you at Marylebone) was running Vista. It was, as I say, shiny and new, and yet running Vista it felt like using a PIII with XP. Running Linux, of course, it flies.
Vista is good for nothing, and I agree with you about AeroGlass - it adds nothing to the experience. At least with Aqua or Compiz on Linux, it feels flash and pretty. AreoGlass is just boring. Except it's boring and transparent, instead of boring and opaque.
