Funny-- I just did one, too! I had the same hesitations as you, but found Vista to be really great! I'm glad you had no problems, either. :) Rebeccas last blog post..<a href="http://freakyfrugalite.com/my-vista-a-list/">My Vista A-List</a> This is a very nice review of Vista.

I'll check it out and email you the name of my wallpaper or maybe even a link to the wallpaper. I also have heard rumors about that too <strong>ghprod</strong>. However I haven't try that, let me focus on Vista first! :razz: I don't know <strong>CleanPC</strong>. Maybe that's because they have bad experience with Vista. I mean I wouldn't be as positive as I'm now if I had tried Vista in the early days! :wink: Even I was a bit afraid to use Vista <strong>bintang4</strong>. I mean if nothing seemed to be working then I would be very angry. Why? Because I had spend money, and let's not forget: my time, on it without having good result. However it all turned out pretty cool, so no worries here anymore. :wink: If your system is running smooth and you don’t need Vista, then I wouldn’t change it either Nicole.

In my opinion and with the cost of RAM these days, the more RAM the better! ;) If you want to run Vista and play games on it I would also go for a nice videocard. About the processor, it depends on what you're going to do with it, but a Intel Core2Dual or AMD 64+. However it all comes down to your budget! ;) Well, I’m currently using 3GB RAM but I’m going to upgrade it 6GB soon Eurail Pass.

I guess I have to wait and see! ;) Currently I'm running the 32 bit version of Vista Home Premium <strong>Squeaky</strong>. I had heard that the 64 bits can give some problems but that's not the reason why I didn't install the 64 bits version. The main reason was that there aren't that much application designed for 64bits version. The main reason why people hate it, it's because Vista had a LOT of problems in the beginning <strong>Axioblogger</strong>. I mean at the beginning you couldn't install your printer! ;) Well, me neither <strong>Lyndi</strong>, but I HAD to try it and see & experience it myself! ;) Sure, I'll keep you updated about my Vista experience. If it's positive, like now, you can decide to upgrade to Vista or not. I've a OEM version which costs about 100 euro, 140 USD, so yes, it's a bit expensive. Yeah, I’m curious if it stays this way CY.

I am still running XP. I suppose I have just heard too many negative things to take the plunge. I will be watching your site with interest - maybe it is time that I also make the change. The cost of Vista is however a worrying factor.

Had some issues with software and hardware not working, so I turned it into my graphics workstation. Then, I setup my other system with Vista 32 Business Edition and all is good. There was a little bit of a learning curve for me, but I never have seen the blue screen of death. I like it way more than XP and I don't use my Linux system, hardly ever anymore.
