The problem with this all is people are tring to install Vista on old, outdated machines. Its like trying to run the Indy 500 in a ‘65 VW. Just Wont Work. And yet, they complain. Buy a new machine (like me) and Vista is awesome. (Please no snipers). It just happens that way.

Meaning Vista was designed for and needs more RAM, right?
That has been the push-pull-push-pull between hardware and software, for over 20 years of PCs.
No, I bought a brand new laptop with Vista. It’s crap. I hate it. I can’t find anything. And it’s bug-infested. I needed to replace my old Windows ME desktop, and just bought a used desktop off eBay with XP, redone to original factory configuration, with factory recovery disks included. No way am I ever buying anything with Vista on it again, and no I’m not interested in “downgrading” to the far superior XP. Microsoft needs to quit fixing that aren’t broke, and start fixing things ARE broke. The notion that they will now “solve” many of the problems of later Windows versions by inviting users to run multiple operating systems on the same computer is patently idiotic.
Just make sure you have around 2 Gig Ram. I've seen people with new machines that scrimp on RAM and Vista runs poorly. Add RAM and it behaves nicely.
