My $600 Compaq Presario V2404US laptop runs Vista just fine,
including the Aero glass effect. Initially it had only 512 MB RAM
but I increased that recently to 1.5 GB, which did result in
speedier operation. Of that RAM, 128 MB is being used by the
integrated graphics processor, so initially the OS had only
384 MB available. The integrated graphics chip is an ATI
Radeon Xpress 200M which fully supports all of Vista's
special effects.

Meh, even 90% of todays "high end" laptops of today won't be able to run
Vista with full effects.
