I hate vista to, but the layout i actually quite like... if my computer had the power to run it GOt dual core 1.6 processers n only a gig or ram (Yes i know its rubbish specs but my last comp broke and i really had no money to get a decent one) and thats bout what vista alone needs to run let alone running other programmes, where as if i had XP on my comp i might be able to get photoshop to load up without it crashing. So will windows 7 be faster loading than vista as well?

I mainly use Xubuntu (Linux), and have XP for any Windows-only programs I need to run.

You mean, how do I like it? Personally, I really like it a lot. All the software's free, I don't really worry about spyware or viruses (most are made for Windows, not Linux), and there are tons of programming tools available for me to use. I'm a web designer (I use PHP and mySQL), and it's been very easy for me to set up a web server that uses both on my laptop. I use that to test everything before I upload it to my website.
One thing that's made linux a lot easier for me is I'm not a gamer (most games only work with Windows) and I don't have an iPod/anything Apple (only works with Mac/Windows). I surf the web, I write papers for school, and I make my website, all of which can be done easily with Linux.
If that wasn't what you were wondering about, feel free to write back.

That's cool. Does it work more like mac or like Windows? I guess I'd say it works more like Windows, because Mac has gone and specifically tried to make things as easy as possible. With Linux, the focus is more on function, and not so much on ease of use. Layout-wise, it's set up a lot more like Windows. However, I know there are people who have customized it (and Win XP) to look like Mac. It's kind of like Mac, where no one writes viruses for it, so unlike with Windows, virus/spyware isn't really a huge issue.
