So I got a new computer.

Intel quad core

4GB ram

Vista 64.

I'm just having too many Vista issues/incompatabilities and I'm considering going back to XP Pro.

I imagine I'll see a performance increase even though I'm going back to a 32bit OS.

Thoughts? 32bit XP Pro vs 64bit Vista with this hardware.
