Windows XP is a relatively stable, predictable, low-risk choice. I feel that Vista's latest incarnation (Windows 7) isn't a bad choice and you'll probably be satisfied with it. However, if you got to a point where you'd want to look at an alternative, I'd recommend Ubuntu. You can download it and - if you know how - create a bootable CD ROM from the distribution, and just try it on your computer without affecting Windows.

My friend made a comment as well something like, "Oh that's the system that still has the 'bugs' in it". It seems something like this happens to me every year! What do you suggest so I can continue having a smooth operating system that within (1) year I do not have to make another upgrade?
