Personally I won't upgrade to Vista until it's been completely hacked so I can disable the DRM. I hate it!

The best sollution, I think, is to get an old pc to play old games :) a have just re-build my old machine celeron 400mhz 128 ram s3 trio 4mb+12mb in a voodoo2 and of course sound blaster 16. I took everything out and put it into a cardboard so it is easy to store. when i wish to play i take it out. such "pc" without a case is smaller than a LCD monitor and with good modern radiators it is nearly silenced you can only hear the HDD working:) i think that it is better as there are no problems with compatibility besides I always wanted to have an old pc for my own.
