Don't agree with that. I totally skipped 98SE, NT, 2000 and Millennium, went from 98 to XP. Vista may go the way of 2000 or ME in the next year or so, and we will have Windows 7 or Vienna and then ???? I think it is totally realistic to think I/we could skip 2 or 3 generations of Windows upgrades,...I believe there is a choice.
This is true if you stay with your "old" PC, but if you buy a new one today, many brands do not provide the drivers for "old" operating system and you must run Vista in it. This is the case with my new HP Pavillion.

But like many says, Vista works perfectly to date and it is a powerful OS for multimedia. I understand that for some people the learning curve is hard, but the "next generation" of power user seems to not have problems with "complex" OS. Old ones still have problems programing their VCR...
