I got a friend who has that...Later I would ask him , hows the new BETA 2 ...

BTW , as for me...VISTA is just a bloatware OS , that needs huge amount of HDD , huge amount of memory and SLi Graphics card. Without it , your computer would be like 300Mhz Pentium II , with 128MB RAM , 4MB VRAM with Windows XP...Dont get me wrong...Its soo much bloated..I would wait for SP1 to come out , and then later I would think about moving to VISTA. So far , XP does a great job. I am not getting this VISTA thingy , as who knows..It might contain Blaster Virus as well...Suddenly , bam restart

I would rather use Tiger...it only needs 256MB of RAM to run...Bah , it even runs fine on a 1999 PowerMac G3 with 512MB of RAM and on a 500Mhz G3 Processor....I would wait [and save $$$$$]

Since 640K is enough....I wonder If I can run VISTA with 640K of RAM..!

One word - eWWWWWWWWW

no way , I am paying that much for a crappy OS. I have just tested the POS OS . OSX's Chess still rocks , and its a pure Rip-off of OSX. OMG , Aero hogs up ram like hell and they call that GUI. Take a look at OSX 10's GUI and the ease of use. They still can't get the right. Oh yeah , I can get the cool Aero effects by using Beryl on a X200 [it even works on a Radeon 9200].


There is nothing big deal about Vista . AFAIK , i am pretty happy running OSX on my Dell aka Hack. Seriously , OSX makes use of SSE3 and even VMX [on Core 2 Duo , Core Duo , Pentium D 9xx series]...I dont see Vista making use of that *yet*....We might never know...Oh yeah , lets wait for SP2 Vista .....Then only I'l use Vista.
