Any known issues with upgrading to VISTA
I know there were several issues upgrading computers to Win XP. I was wondering if there are any problems like that with VISTA?

Tons of issues if your computer is not vista compatible. Go here for starters:

Should you decide to upgrade, a clean install rather than an upgrade (install over XP) is advisable.

Make sure your pc is upgradable for hardware but do a clean install, not an upgrade from XP.
