1) I can't afford Server 2003 and for once I didn't feel like stealing from work (I know, weirded me out too. I think this is the first time I've actually paid for any Microsoft product outside of an OS pre-loaded on an off-the-shelf system).

2) Server 2003 is massive overkill for what I want to do

3) I've been running vista at work since the very first beta release. I'm well versed in it and have no problem getting it to do what I need it to do.

4) I expect newer technologies to be supported on Vista. I'm in the mood to move forward, and unless we're talking failure on the level of Windows ME, I see no reason to hold off just because companies are still catching up on writing drivers.

Believe me, I've thought this through a thousand times.

Unbuntu was an option, but I chose the easy-integration with existing infrastructure (namely TiVo and iTunes) over the gains of going Unbuntu. I know much of it is overcomable, but not worth the inevitable nagging incompatibilities, imo. I'll likely turn the old desktop into a Linux playgound.
