No. There's no advantage.

If your machine is happy with 2k you are not going to get any added benefit from Vista. It's a horrible pain in the ass to use, they have a new driver model which most IHVs have not yet supported so things work worse rather than better, so far, it's a horrible user experience, and have I mentioned that it is a serious pain in the ass? It's fucked up as a football bat. Don't go there.

"So don't pay attention to the approval ratings that say 68% of Americans disapprove of the job this man is doing. I ask you this, does that not also logically mean that 68% approve of the job he's not doing? Think about it. I haven't."
