The problem with Vista isn't computational resources, its companies like Dell still pushing antiquated hardware as if its the deal of the century and people complaining and blaming vista because its slow.

That is absolute baloney. I don't really think that Core 2 2.8 mhz is all that antiquated.

I have two systems, one Dell and one HP, both about the same or higher than what you have. And Vista quite often just "pauses" for no apparent reason for 10 seconds to a couple of minutes.

And Vista crashes continually, often for no reason at all just at random.

Some of the problem I am sure has to do with some 3rd party software, and/or all Adobe products - in Vista Acrobat Professional 8.1 will sometimes lock up for 1-4 minutes and then start again.

But I have had Vista on BOTH of my machines just randomly reboot while doing nothing not long after a restart - with no programs but the usual startup programs running.

And if Vista upgrades are so wonderfully easy, then why did I have to reinstall all of my MS Expression software because Vista broke it?
