If you're going to use Windoze, go for XP if you're having too much trouble with vista, but like I mentioned previously, Macs are eminently more than capable astroware platforms. As a matter of fact, professional astronomers use Unix/Linux on PC's, or Macs...they try to stay away from Windows. It's too flaky. They may use it in their offices, but not to run simulations or observing equipment. Many don't bother to use it even in their offices...why would they, given they have access to better OS's.
