good reply

Wonderful reply David, i think you covered alot of the items i was going to raise.

Namely XP is the most stable version of Windows in recent times (aimed at home users) and I would guess a large portion of the user-base won't have used a version prior to this.

With pricing structures for Vista being based on the different versions, this can be very confusing for a standard home user who will generally take what they are given or told to use (pre-bundled software).
So while purchasing a new PC, those adverts to upgrade from the standard bundled Vista to a Higher End version will seem like a wonderful deal, yet will give the user no added benefit due to the way they use the system.

Tho sadly the WinFS was the one features I was most looking forward too.
