I know - but I'm sure games will support XP for at least another year. By that time I'll prob have a new computer anyway.
Any known issues with bootcamp and XP SP3?
Got a tip for us?

Yeah, I guess there are like 2-3 games that only run on Vista - but if that's it, then I'm not convinced.
I'm sure more games eventually will be Vista only, but since microsoft have had so many problems with Vista, I'm pretty sure they will support XP for quite some time.

I bet you do, but my graphics card is pretty old (Radeon X1600) so I won't be able to take advantage of the dx10 technology anyway...
You wasted money getting pro, it has no features you can use that Home doesnt have, get your money back if you can

I may be mistaken but doesn't Pro support dual processors. I don't think Home does.

DX10 is much better than DX9. I have played Crysis on both and it plays and looks better on Vista.
