    XP or Vista? I'm trying to put a build together for the C90S and I've read that XP has some problems with it. Is this true?

    XP runs fine on the C90, faster actually. you just lose out on all the vista gadgets, etc

    That's what I like to hear, since I have a copy of XP Pro and haven't made the leap to Vista yet (although I've played around with Vista). I'll make the leap to Vista eventually to take advantage of DX10, but I think XP will work well for now.
