Hi Vetri 1 Check if suitable drivers are available for XP, even if you go Vista. You can consider duel boot in the interem. 2 What is the period you intend to use the new laptop. 3 In Vista, you can make it a part of your RAM, any, pen drive you plug in. So, enhancing memory is no hassel. 3 It makes sense buying current than picking out dated technology. It may hurt in the future. 4 Christmas is not far, where you can get better deals out there. It will give you opportunity to check on the Jaws 9 beta. This of course, if you can wait all that long.
