The learning curve of Vista to a newcomer?

[transcend11]

I have been using Windows XP since it came out and have not used a new OS for a very long time. I will be receiving my custom Fujitsu T4220 in 2 days and it will be my first experience with Vista. I know that there are many new features, and I was wondering what other people in my position thought about Vista and how long it took to become comfortable with it.

Also, does anyone know of good websites that show you the differences by migrating from XP to Vista? I don't even know what a 'breadcrumb' is...

I think for the most part vista is like XP, some thing have been moved around a bit, but the core in terms of how you use it is the same.

This from Paul Thurrott's Windows Supersite might help though.

His site in general overviews Windows Operating Systems, so it might be of use.

It's not different enough to worry about. Somethings are in a different 'spot', but you can be productive immediately.
