I felt like I didn't need to change from 2000 to XP at the time.. but eventually one has to move on.
I haven't tried Vista yet. One thing I surely don't like is how it cripples Google Desktop.. a known issue that will be fixed in a later service pack.
Other than that.. I don't really need much from an OS.
One thing I really wish it was solved is to keep track of currently and frequently used folders and files across different application. This is something that Boomerang on old Macs did nicely.
Nowadays I use Google Desktop (Double CTRL) to search for pieces of recent filenames to bring the containing folder.. but it doesn't always work well. In fact Google Desktop seems to give priority to file contents rather than to pathnames, which is a shame !
