Feature | Windows Vista Home Premium is the operating system for homes with advanced computer needs. It will help you use your laptop or desktop PC more effectively as well as enable you to enjoy new, exciting digital entertainment experiences—all with the benefit of added security and reliability. In addition to all previously released updates, SP1 contains changes focused on addressing specific reliability and performance issues, supporting new types of hardware, and adding support for several emerging standards. SP1 also continues to make it easier for IT administrators to deploy and manage Windows Vista. Service Packs are not intended to be a vehicle for releasing significant new features or functionality; however some existing components do gain slightly enhanced functionality in SP1 to support industry standards and new requirements. |

Pros: A lot fancier then XP. Has windows Mail so you don't need Outlook. Has a lot of features for customizing. Very Stable.
Cons: It is a memory hog when Aero is enabled. Using 600+ MB of memory at boot, and around 1000MB for normal work and use. Almost makes me want to upgrade to more memory from my 2GB that I have. It is more work installing and running programs etc. Hard to find all the settings for the OS. Everything wants to be verified too, but maybe you can turn that off. Windows update scans your computer for updates to your other software and hardware. May be infringing on your privacy.
Overall Review: Overall this is a good OS. I hear a lot of people badmouthing it but its runs excellent. SP1 is good. OS locks to your motherboard, so make sure you use all the time before activating it to make sure your hardware is fine.
