Vista, only because performance doesn't differ between them for me, and I like Vista's UI.

But most computers XP

Yeh, same thing I much prefer it to XP, but like, using the GF's celeron computer, XP just outdoes vista easily.

Ever since Vista was released I purchased it. I just had enough of XP, never worked well for me. I got VIsta Ultimate and a good feature is the media center so cool!

Xp because as said before, vista uses alot of ram. It could slow down your gaming. But when you thinking in the feild of gaming it really doesn't have much difference. Don't get me started on the compatibility issues with vista
