What is most hassle free way to go? Vista or 7 ? I need stablility and think XP has shown to be that, but also have heard the new OS's will allow me to use all 4GBs of memory
Is is too early for 7 ?
Is Vista crap?

It's not crap, but XP has proven to be the best bet for us. Opinions will vary. You won't be able to use a full 4GB of RAM in PT until the 64bit drivers are ready and all goes as planned. At that point you will be best served with W7 64bit and an installed 6gb of ram. The system will still need some.
