My $1700 laptop only has an Intel i855GME video card. It will only use
up to 64MB of RAM. I have 2GB of system ram installed.
Foo on me for buying an Inspiron 700m.

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.
