"Not Sure"

I'm not Sure, But i'm more on the end of "Not at all"

since Windows Vista, I have not be my self, I do not know what to do,
But I do know Windows let me down on my Birthday,
I got the LapTop on my 18TH Birthday, it has 1GB of RAM and it's a Slow Vista PC,
I'm thinking of going to the Mac side of things, easy and it just works,
so not like Windows, But PC has it's up's, by letting you put your
own hardware in the computer,

Not to Sure, lets just go with the flu
Well to get the best of both worlds (Expandability of of PC but with no Windows) you could get a PC and run the Linux OS on it. I recommend Ubuntu Linux (http://www.ubuntu.com/products/whatisubuntu). The Linux OS (sometime called GNU/Linux) is a entirely free (and really good) OS with most programs for it also being free.

I recommend at least giving it a go. :)

well i have already bought a new computer for my old man as a joint birthday and Christmas present, and it has Windows 7 on it.  My first impressions are that its very good, alot better then Vista both in speed and presentation wise.  However i am going to wait before upgrading my Windows XP main PC as am going to be upgrading the components in the New Year, and will be waiting as don't think its worth it on my Vista laptop as i don't use it alot.

If you dont know DOS, you dont know Windows...

Thats why Bill Gates created the Windows NT Family.

Well, I can't answer that because I've got 64 bit with 6 GB of RAM. ;D

I am not shour how much vista took up but i have had my computer on for 3 days now (games, internet, but mostly folding) and it is taking ~1.4 Gb of my 4 Gigs. I have an update so I will restart my pc and let you know how much it is using on a fresh start.

(Update) I takes ~900Mb on start up. I also noticed that my original post was my 200th. I wonder if it will count the update as a new one.

Don't worry about it.  If it's not good at stock, then it's not good.
