Has anyone been using VISTA long enough to provide a brief review on it? I have not had the time to give it a try myself. I have read pros and cons elsewhere and that there seems to be a lot of compatibility issues with other programs - installing and getting them to work. I would like to hear from some of you who are actually using VISTA as to how well it is working and some feedback on the compatibility aspect especially with security programs.

Pros:
Beautiful Glass Effect
Fast boot up
Easy to get use to the new interface (probably for me only)

Cons:
Graphics issue
Games making the entire Vista restart automatically
Slow shutdown
Indexing search lags the entire vista
Multi-tasking seems laggy
Graphic software provided by ATI doesn't work with VISTA (for me only i guess)

Oh by the way my computer specifications are
