Looking for a laptop
+ Firstly you will need 1gb of ram to run vista properly , secondly stay away from vista its crap and thats the advice of two of the worlds leading pc makers , Dell and Acer, and yes i do have vista , nice box crap OS system ,do yourself a favour and get a dell laptop with XP installed and before January 2008 as microcrap intend to stop allowing XP to be installed after that date as they want everyone to switch to Vista as XP sales have increased 50% :!: , if anyone tells you Vista is good there as stable as Vista is , which incidently it is not , never seen such rubbish promoted so well , my XP pro laptop runs rings around the Vista one , but with hindsight there lies the answer , my XP pro laptop is a Toshiba and 4yrs old , my Vista is 6months and an Acer , quality 90% of the time wins thro , to compare the two in simple terms my Toshiba XP is the hare and my Acer Vista the snail ,maybe its just Acer who knows , but that said why have Dell and several other pc manufacturers gone back to XP for home users? someone in another forum on here said Vista is coming to a buisness near you soon , well not mine its junk , others might disagree and thats there perogative , but i would advise you to ask others or even someone you know who has Vista if you can have a look at it and play around with it before purchasing a laptop with it on , apollogises to those who dont know that i have bad eyesight (from looking at vista :roll: ) for my bold,italic and black type .+
