    Yes you have full capabilities to choose which OS you want to use provided you have the CDs and Recovery Discs.

    Are you planning on going to XP? I would not only suggest it because it performs well but also because there's a guide nicely written by EBE on this.

    You will also want to Check the G1 Owners lounge for links to get the XP Drivers.

    Congrats on your new purchase!

    I assume you purchased it to play some games if so, I suggest you to install Windows XP since games perform much MUCH better under XP than under Vista.

    Cheers!
