Microsoft Confirmed they will Discontinue Windows XP in 2009. which is still far away.

If you can afford it (250$ for the OEM version of Ultimate is not that bad), and have enough RAM to support it, there's rather few arguments you can actually use against upgrading. Vista is better in every aspect compared to XP. There's the issues with mediocre drivers for the graphic cards if you are into gaming, but if you are computer savvy you shouldn't have any problem locating drivers that outmatch the xp drivers. In general, if you are skilled with the computer there's pretty much no serious compabillity issues in Windows Vista that cannot be solved.

Bottom line is though, if you're going to spend the money upgrading to vista later anyway, go for it now. If not for the cool new features, at least for the great new looks!

microsoft is working on sp3 for xp they have made one but it was available to download for only 14 days than they remove it, for some faults i just found a preview in softpedia ,well vista is for business right now (for me) and talking about dx10 why do i need dx10 in vista whr almost softs r not working (work only in XP) so for now i'll vote for XP.and vista here in saudi arabia is about 200$ home edition
