Do you use Vista? I do, and I've seen nothing of that DRM stuff all you people talk about. At least not here. And it even runs faster than XP, just uses a bit more ram, but the RAM prices just went down in january, didn't they? You can buy it now then anyway, before they go up again in a few weeks.
Just so you know, I'm using a pc that's somewhere around 4 years old, with an almost 2 year old graphics card. My monitor (a simple 1280x1024 TFT) is connected with a good old VGA cable. I can watch any 'premium' content here that I want, without problems. Because it does not contain protection. The OS can not decide those things, unless you use protected formats. End of my story.

Read it yourself, that article is about HDMI/HDCP, not Vista. Just check how many times each word appears in the text.
