Windows Vista delivers a substantial update to the Group Policy infrastructure. Yet as organizations around the world deploy Windows Vista, many administrators probably won't notice much of a difference in how they work because the numerous changes in Group Policy functions all take place under the hood. What administrators will find, however, is that Windows Vista™ Group Policy is much more powerful than it was in previous versions. Prior to Windows Vista, Group Policy processing occurred within a process called winlogon. Winlogon had a lot of responsibility, which included getting people logged on to their desktops, as well as servicing the various Group Policy chores. Group Policy is now its own Windows® service. What's more, it's hardened, which means that it cannot be stopped nor can an administrator take ownership of the permissions upon Group Policy in order to then turn it off. These changes enhance the overall reliability of the Group Policy engine.

Is windows XP Vista better than just Windows Vista or is it the same thing?

There is no such thing as "Windows XP Vista." There is Windows XP and there is Windows Vista. They are two different versions of the Windows operating system (XP is older than Vista). As to which is better (XP or Vista) if that is your question -- I think most people would say that XP is better, but this probably depends on which operating system you are used to and what type of work you do with the computer. That said, even Windows Vista is out of date, now. New machines will have Windows 8 (or Windows 7 if it is slightly older).
