I have been running vista since it's commercial release and performance wise, I have no complaints. Granted, vista is a bit of a resource pig but if you have more then 2gb of RAM and a new CPU, it flies along just fine. Benchmarking vista with 1gb of RAM is retarded though in my opinion, my system uses about 1.gb of RAM, at idle.
