I have been following the threads related to sound quality of Windows Vista and  Macintosh operating systems with great interest.
I wondered if there is any consensus at this point as to which operating system sounds better? As a newbie to computer sourced audio I was wondering which way to go for an upgrade path.
Also are you better off upsampling in hardware or software for the best sound quality?

Wait for Windows 7.

As for upsampling, well, if you must do it, it is probably best to play pre-upsampled files that have been converted in software, at least most cost effective for best SQ.  Better to avoid it and get high-res music as it comes out.
