So what you're saying is there really is no *compelling* reason to shell out $399 for a Vista upgrade *yet*... that is if your current hardware specs meet Vista requirements? The only real problem is, it's Microsoft: they've gotten enough of my money, and instead of perpetuating their (admittedly well-earned)

BSchnur BSch...@cox.net microsoft public windows vista general I checked prices for building a system based on the AM2, and it seems the PC would either be significantly lacking at least one component, or cost at least $1000.

Hefty hardware requirements for Windows Vista
Just look at the extreme hardware requirements of Vista. XP will run on a over 6 year old Desktop machine I have. Vista won't. Vista has these huge hardware requirements for a reason. It's a resource hog. It has higher hardware requirements than XP so there is no way it can possibly ever run faster than XP.
Windows Vista Hardware Requirements
"Realistic" System Requirements for Windows Vista (IMHO)... My suggested hardware requirements for Windows Vista are: . 2.4-gigahertz (GHz) processor or faster . At least 1 gigabyte (GB) of RAM (1.5+GB is recommended) . At least 60 gigabytes (GB) of available space on the hard disk (100+GB recommended) .
