It all just depends on what all you're going to do with it.
Don't mean to sound like an ass, but I laughted at your post!

- More security features. - lol, I can't see any difference between Vista and XP SP2

- Faster than XP (for me, anyway). - How big is your machine?

- Cannot use Media Center Extender for your 360. - Media Centre STILL doesn't support DivX (without Transcode), Windows Media Player 11 Sharing from the dashboard does. Unless you have a TV tuner I don't see a need for Media Centre over WMP11.

You don't need to reply, I'm just saying....

Oh, and just to chime into the argument, all DX10 based games also run fine in DX9 on XP.
