not to knock vista but i like Xp better because if you want to start modding you will not be able to use the editor unless someone has fixed that issue and Xp does not use as much memory.

If you buy Vista now (too bad you already have it) they give you a free upgrade to 7 in October.

You can also wait the month. Or install the 7 RC, which stops working in March 2010.
