    Honestly, listen to Roger N.

    Vista is NOT WORTH IT. It may be "prettier", but there's alot of uglyness under the skin... especially now.

    It "might" be worth it after a Service Pack or two... but XP is so stable and useful now it's way better to hold on to it.

    If you want to get the "clean" feeling... try reformatting your computer and reinstalling windows XP instead. You'll feel alot better.

    No. You need at least 2GB of RAM.

    Here's something else for you to consider...

    1) Third party drivers/applications are not allowed unless “approved” by Microsoft. Some of your favorite software won't run on Vista because the drivers have not been "approved" by Microsoft. This also means that the digital camera you just bought may not be "allowed" to connect to the PC.

    2) ALL media copied thru Vista is SERIOUSLY degraded. The mp3s that you rip, are not allowed to be full quality. Same with DVD's.

    3) Takes up too much of the already strained resources.

    Personally, if XP ever goes out of support, I'm going Linux
