Welcome to the forums! That is a big concern of mine too. Here's hoping they streamline that problem.

ive been looking for the features list on this thing trying to figure out what i need it for

Believe it or not, you may not need to upgrade immediately. This all depends on what you are using your computer for. Some people might not choose to upgrade right away. I don't see it as a problem, but maybe MS would.

one of my gripes this is as significant as windows 95. windows vista is not going to run some new 128-bit programs or something... as a regular old pc user what is it going to do for me. if it is going to do something amazing besides display a fancy GUI wheres the facts?
i dont need a $200 upgrade to search my files in a few seconds. i can download that for free these days
and this isnt a flame. im actually hoping im wrong about all this

The biggest thing that interests me are the flash drives and the ability to use flash memory as RAM, as well as the performance increases... once I see some positive reports on performance I'll be satisfied with Windows Vista.
If you are not heavy into performance and just use your computer to manage e-mail and things of that nature, why upgrade? But if you look forward to better memory handling, compatibility with the latest processors, maybe you want to get it, as you say, "when it comes out the door"
