Experts: Don't upgrade to VIsta

One thing I love about DEMO is that I get to rub elbows with some of the world's savviest tech press.  All the product guys are here. Hanging out in the lobby with them yesterday, I asked the question that is on the mind of 90 percent of all computer users:

"Should I upgrade my computer to VISTA?"

I received a resounding "NO!" in three-part harmony.

It seems that Vista is great if you are buying a new PC, but right now there are all sorts of incompatabilities with legacy software, the stuff that's already in your computer. This will get worked out, one app at a time, over the coming months, they speculate. But chances are you should just wait to have Vista in your next machine--and the one I have right now works just fine, thank you very much.
