"Are you sure you wouldn't like to play games? I know they're not your main focus. But surely you'd like the option, right?"
Actually, the list isn't in order of priority.
Games are one of my main focuses, if not the main focus.
Right now I frequently play Civ IV, Rise of Legends, Galactic Civilizations, Sims2, SM's Pirates and several other games.

As far as the OS goes... if Vista doesn't work out, then I can always switch to XP.

:P
