Vista still uses around 50% even with 4GB. When I was creating some virtual
machines with VMware, I couldn't go beyond 2GB, but I could use 1.5GB. Not
the case with 7.

ah. I have like 2 gigs and it's only using 50% of it normally. That of
course changes if I start virtualBox and load something interesting in
there, then it gets to around 80% or so. Still though, would that be
enough to make it break?
Thanks.

Although, I run vista here, I've been running it for about a year and a
half. I've found it to be less stable, but maybe it's just me. I like the
new features, but hate the instability.

hi
it depends on why you where thinking of it to begin with.
I had to buy a new pc couple days ago because my xp machine crashed. So
was left with two choices, buy a new computer with vista and get on with
it, or don't have a computer. might as well chop my arms off than have
no computer. *smiles*
I figured might as well get used to vista since I had to purchase a new
machine any way.
yes, I'll agree vista is different to xp, but in a lot of ways, exactly
the same.
you still have a desktop, you still have email, you still have menues.
windows mail was outlook express, but honestly if you could use the
latter then you sure can use the former.
I.E is version 7 so that the same as XP.
I would strongly recommend anyone wishing to go for vista, takes a look
at the daisy files from freedom scientific. it does explain a lot and
how to manage the new layout of the desktop, what the vista gadgets are
etc.
so meaning no di respect to anyone, I totally disagree with people when
they say "don't upgrade, it's not accessible"
load of rubbish and gives a total wrong impression.
what is good for one might not work for another, but I would say try it
out as you might find it is easier to use than what you currently have.
and, you might like it.
I'm sorry if this upset anyone, this was not my intention.
I for one was scared off from upgrading by the so called "experts" I am
not pointing any fingers here.
my last comments here are, ask yourself your own questions?
why do you want to upgrade?
Thanks
Elaine

Thanks David, those were my thoughts, but, wanted to see if there were
any proponents of vista

Can anyone tell me why I should upgrade to Vista from XPPro? What are
advantages, enhanced features, ETC.
Thanks,
