I have it on my laptop. I like it. The biggest problem is that nothing
really supports it yet. Drivers are lacking. If you have an option, wait
until this fall, then things should be in better shape. If you are looking
at upgrading a computer, I wouldn't bother. I would only get Vista on a new
computer, then you are sure that all your hardware will be supported and
won't require you replacing working parts for Vista approved parts.
I have three computers on XP and my laptop on Vista. Even though the
graphics are nice on Vista, I like the ease of network setup, and a few
other nice things, I'm not going to upgrade my other computers to Vista. My
other comptuers work fine on XP and I don't have to worry about any driver
issues.
