Windows Vista has better look and feel than Windows XP.
Windows Aero in Windows vista is totally a different look with 3D flip features, transparent.
Windows Aero offers a sidebar which is transparent, in this sidebar you can place icons of your choice.
Security is increased in Vista when compared to XP.
XP has standard firewall but vista has both standard firewall and firewall with advanced features.
this helps vista to act as a true firewall which scans the data bi-directionally i.e both incoming and outgoing data is scanned.
