Stay with XP for now. Once Vista's support and compatibility go up, it'll be good to go with that, but for now, XP is solid with everything. Not to mention, gaming is near impossible with Vista from what I understand.

i just want my mac to be as stable and fast as possible... parallel means that i can use xp and mac's OS at the same time... will this be better or just mess everything up? as i said im using just for poker,music and movies
