| So about the RAM and CPU, could you just turn down all the windows Vista graphics and therefore take less power to run? Or is it still significantly more taxing than an XP?

I think it would take less power to run. Most likely.

Ignore this idiot:

I would not buy Vista now, because like XP, it was flawed at the beginning. Soon it should get better, but by then, Windows 7 might be released. |

UAC is fuckign annoying...
I had to disable it to get half my shit running
!!! |
It may be annoying but it will say: "A program is trying to delete hal.dll",
when some retard tries to delete your hal.dll. |
Kaspersky Anti Virus

No Vista is not a great OS. It's not even a fairly good OS, Microsoft's only chance is that gamers really want to use DX 10. There's no other reason to even steal vista. The UAC is just a big fuck you to every windows user. Microsoft have tried to keep the number of Vista computers which are already infected hidden but I've heard that it's a huge amount.
Sure, ready boost is a nice feature but with windows xp you wouldn't even be forced to use it. Aero Glass and crap is just for old people who have no experience with computers and finds that cool. Do you know the amount of RAM that vista uses? They say that Vista is optimised for your gaming needs. By the way Visa DID copy Mac OS X.. take a look at this video and you will understand http://youtube.com/watch?v=UU88eKlBvCQ

I intend to run Vista when I get a new computer.
For me the advantages out weigh the disadvantages.

But for some people, the Disadvantages out weigh the Advantages.

and one more question: Is it true that vista will try to keep you from using Kernel debuggers, and programs like cheat engine? Thas what my brother was saying a while ago.
Because i love CE, and i wouldnt want to give it up.

kernel debuggers = cheat engine?
How can you use a kernel debugger on an operating system that is closed source? Closed tighter than Britney spears when she was younger...
I am very confused now.
But no, it wont stop you from using hacking tools.

Of course it won't. But I heard that its firewalls are quite strong?

I'd prefer 3GRam, 1G as a backup
