At work we're still on XP. At home I have Vista on one machine and XP on all the others. Been using Firefox since 0.9, but I've used Pegasus mail since before Firefox, and never changed to Thunderbird. I keep thinking I'll move to Linux, but I have a technophobe family (except for the 15 year old) and it's easier to stick with GatesGoo.

I've heard some dreadful things about Vista.
