So you do not want to build until windows 7 comes out?

By the time Windows 7 comes out, that stuff will be outdated and/or half the cost it is now, probably.

No faith in vista. Has the service packs made it any better?

thought it was due out in two weeks.

Yes, Vista is quite good, all rants about them after SP1, are all lies... or they are just n00bs

SP1 made Vista loads better. I was among the initial Vista haters, if that's any assurance.

Windows 7 out in 2 weeks? Where the **** did you hear that?

Windows 7 doesn't have an official release date yet, but it won't be until late 2009 or 2010 I believe.

And Vista is completely fine.

Its not due until 2010...

Think it was google news. not sure. anyway. Vista is needed for gaming so i will have to settle for that.

Personally I never had a issue with Vista except for a few things being a little harder to do. Like changing the location of the user and public folder after a install, but no big deal really. Was always more stable for me, especially when I would overclock to much and would have a bad boot.
