Many people hate the idea of caching, but personally, I don't care if half my ram is used up, it enables my applications to load about 5 times faster than it did in XP.
So unless you really want to know what every last chunk of your memory is being used for, Id recommend getting vista, with a large chunk of ram, instead of xp which operates like a blind geriatric looking for his slippers.

I only use that pc for design stuff and most of my applications are always running so xp is ok for me. I didn't know a lot about the vista vs xp caching so going to link now so I can get learnid.
