Vista is better, it just had/has a few teething problems.

I have been using it from the start and after some initial bumps I haven't had any issues in months.

And yes, it is possible to put XP on a Vista supplied machine.

Unfortunately to date, vista has been for some, a disappointing experience. From my own personal experience with vista, I think it hoggs resources and is not very compatible with peripherals due to device driver issues.

However, I hope that it is just teething problems and that things are sorted with some updates.

For the moment I'd stay well clear...
