I've got another question. I read somewhere that Vista
price will be cut 20-50% near the end of March. If price
weren't an issue, which version is more user-friendly,
XP or Vista? Just curious.

Completely depends on the user and the system they will be using it upon.
(Sub-dependencies would be what the user does with the computer, what
peripherals they plan on using, etc.)
