"When Microsoft brings out a new operating system, it's always nice to know that you can actually take advantage of it. Sure, you're used to whatever you currently have, which is most likely Windows XP, but you also know that sooner or later, something new will come along that requires the new operating system. So when Vista finally shipped, I decided that the time had come. I'd upgrade one of the machines in the back room."

> for regular use a PIII with 512MB of memory will run XP just fine. I wonder how well Vista would run on such a system
I couldn't get Vista to even run install on a Dual 1.13GHz PIII system with 1GB of RAM. This system has run Windows 2000, XP, Linux and FreeBSD just fine in the past.
