DirectX 10...and so it ends! - REPLY TO THIS OPINION

Why do you need to buy new products? If you want to use your old ones, set up a multiboot with Windows XP. That way you can run all your old games and software as well, and at the moment XP supports all the same hardware so doing a multiboot would be easy - unless you have an old computer with a tiny hard drive, at which point your computer probably isn't powerful enough to run Vista at any decent speed anyway.

If anyone reading this doesn't know how to multiboot, you just split your hard drive into two partitions and install XP on one, and Vista on the other. Each version of Windows needs seperate installations of each program that you need on both versions (such as Microsoft Office and your anti-virus program) but games you only need to install once, so it will probably end up using around 10-15GB extra on your computer (this is nothing on newer computers). Easy.
