There may be some things that Windows does 'as well as' Linux.. but it's 
never going to be better than Windows, I don't care -what- version 
you're running!

Vista's a Hog!  You seen the requirements for that OS?  at LEAST 40gig 
of HD space, for the OS, it'll barely poke along with 1gig of RAM, but 
prefers 4... will 'kinda look ok' with a 256mem video card, but it 
-really- wants to see a 1gig video card

I'll stay with my 1, 1.5 and 1.8GHz machines, and update RAM and video 
when I need... Linux will be -more than happy- with it.

Why would you -want- active directory, anyway?  That's a security flaw, 
looking for a place to be exploited anyway (under the M$ environment, 
anyway)
