[QUOTE="Thomas Rogers, post: 730476, member: 60724"] XST, you are in the overwhelming minority if you think Windows Vista is MUCH faster than XP. Most all reviewers and experts claim just the opposite. XP can perform reasonably well on a 1.xGhz, 512MB, PC and not be sluggish. Vista can't...you need at least 1Gb of memory for the same responsiveness, and many are upgrading and buying computers with 2GB to get to the same performance they had under XP. Furthermore, and as I said, if you are the kind of user that just wants your apps to work, and you have a lot of apps you have purchased over the past years, don't count on them running on Vista...not without some hoop jumping. I'm all for new, but new should be a step forward, not back. Don't shoot the messenger. Vista SP1 is right around the corner. TJR [/QUOTE]
