But I assume you're still paying for a Vista licence...

...if not, Vista should be removed so it can't be used (but then you wouldn't need a separate partition for XP).

If you are paying for Vista and you don't ever use it you're essentially throwing the licence away. Then Microshaft won't care because they're still getting the money and the Vista sales statistics.

This is exactly why an open choice of OS should be mandatory for all PC purchases.
