Well MOST users do NOT use those sorts of applications. The vast
majority of PCs and laptops are used in a corporate environment in
which, most users use office. Period.
Your situation is NOT common. Also many high-end video and graphics
works are actually done on NON-windows OSs anyway.

I have run Vista almost from the day it appeared on the market, and I have
not
have a single blue screen. With XP I had quite a few.

Running continuously (never switched off, only rebooted when Windows Updates
requires it) for 20 months since January 2006.

Zero crashes, zero freezes, zero BSODs. For me, it's the most reliable and
resilient NT-family OS yet.

I made sure the hardware was fully compatible before installing, of course.

I don't know what a "power user" is, but mine gets comprehensively thrashed
a lot of the time:

* the full range of MS Office products in regular use
* production of technical documentation and technical drawings
* software development using VS 2008 and Delphi 2007
* graphics editing using PSP and other products
* audio editing using Adobe Audition
* video editing using Ulead and Pinnacle products
* video conversion and DVD authoring
* web development using various products
* extensive use of Virtual PC 2007 to run XP and VirtualBox to run various
Linux distros
* plus the usual browsing, emailing, etc.

Vista definitely isn't broken for me. If it is for you, I suggest you look
at your hardware or drivers.

But I would say this: nobody should upgrade from XP unless they need the new
features (what's the point?) or are just interested in learning about it.
And if you do upgrade, make damn sure your hardware and drivers are OK for
Vista.

Whether you are right about what would crash doesn't matter, because
your guess about how little I use the computer for is very much
incorrect. I use it for much more, and run more and bigger
applications than most people do. The only respect in which a
significant number of people here are likely to exceed my personal use
is that I don't run any games (other than chess).

Talking about the number of programs running at once, by the way, at
the moment I have ten applications open on the task bar.

How does it feel to be labeled a fool when Microsoft agrees with what
I said about UAC and you've been exposed as a clueless moron who can
only throw the same feces around over and over like the retarded
little monkey we all know you are.

You shouldn't judge the OS based solely on your own lack of ability.
Millions of people are using Vista every day, without problem why
couldn't you?

Why do I find that so hard to believe, given your opening sentences?
What're you using, crayons, checkers, tin cans, and paper?
