I am currently using XP on my laptop but I am getting ready to switch to my other laptop which has Vista. I agree with Lily you need to upgrade to Office 2007 b/c it is alot different as far as the menu setup. I would do the learning curve now before you get busy with clients and save any frustration later on.

I also suggest waiting on getting any of the operating software or systems until a minimum of 6 months. That gives them the opportunity to work out the bugs. The laptop I am getting ready to switch to was brand new with Vista when it first came out and we had a lot of issues with it. We have since had all of that resolved but no need to go through the hassle if you don't need to.

Best of luck!
