Stop whinging

Vista works fine as long as you have decent hardware. If anything, it'll just end bringing lots of fast but cheap hardware which you can use for Linux.

I installed Vista early December on an old PC, it detected all my drivers and worked fine, got a new PC, transferred the disk from old PC to new and it still works fine! Never had it crash, although initially confusing, it is far superior to XP.

The only problem is file transfers have slowed down... hopefully MS will fix this in SP1.

I currently dual-boot Ubuntu and Vista but have to say that I think Vista is slightly better.
