Workflow Environment: My Ubuntu vs. Vista Dilemma

So after leaving my full time job and going out on my own, I left my beloved MBP behind.

I’m busy investing all of my resources into the development of the business.  So my question to myself was, do I invest $2000 into another mbp or do I boot up the gateway with the exact same hardware specs.  Suffice to say, I went with saving $2000.  (Should i be on one of those new microsoft commercials for that?)

Probably not.

The box still has the tools i used on it a couple of years ago.  Run some updates and my workflow is back.  Then all of the usual gripes about Vista came back.  Lag with the file system, bloated animations/gui effects, me remembering that it is in fact vista and not xp.
