Why should I upgrade to windows Vista

Last week i bought laptop with all latest configuration. Due to vistas late release i have to satisfy with XP professional SP2. AS far I know XP with SP2 provides lot of security than the latest Vista as it has already been tested for long years. Suppose if i need to upgrade to vista.. My printer will not work... may be some installations will not work.

The only reason looking for Vista is Aero glassy features and security. It requires high quality PC components.

According to Itwire ,Many know that the software cost of upgrading from Windows XP to Windows Vista Business is US$199 but they might not know that the Vista upgrade carries a hardware cost as well, with about US$100 in new or additional PC components required to make the jump to Microsoft's newest operating system, according to research firm iSuppli.

However, Vista allows users the option of disabling the 3D interface, eliminating the need for a new graphics card or a more powerful integrated graphics chip. Whether or not to pay the additional costs required to obtain the 3D functionality is a choice that individual users or companies must make.

why a business user, small or large, have to upgrade to Vista just becuase Windows XP has finally matured? We can't think of a single reason other than the fact is that from January 30, 2007, Microsoft will stop selling Windows XP and eventually we'll be forced to move to Vista - or something else. They wanna capture the market by forcing the users or businesses to get vista
