Why not use XP on a mac like i do now. I"ve had 3 laptops since ive been Djing and from my experience Vista Sucks well leave it at that. I started with a HP touch screen notebook was ok but had vista installed and kept glitching so had that replaced with a new one. Wen't onto a Acer Travel Mate with XP installed which was great and used that at all my mobile Gigs, but over Christmas holidays when i was in Singapore it crashed and yet again needed a new laptop. Finaly the MACBOOK every DJS dream computer. I bought it while i was over in Singapore. Its a hole different world of djing. The cpu meter on Traktor DJ studio doesn't even budge. I use XP on it using bootcamp which comes with the latest leopard software.
