OK, this'll probably start a flame war, but I really think Vista's 
underrated. I like it a lot.

OTOH, all x64 Windows are f**ked up: two program files, two registries, two 
"system32" folders (I kid you not: the x64 one is still called like that). 
Two different explorers, so you'll have to install explorer plugins twice, 
both x32 and x64.. It's really impossible to maintain. Not to mention the 
numerous incompatibilities.
