"But perhaps my greatest reason for not having a problem with Vista is that I really only use this computer for browsing the web and working on the occasional document."
So, all of this hardware, and software and expense, and you could have done the same thing with an EeePC (if you like little things) or an Everex gOS cheap machine, or even a Fit-PC if you want low power consumption.
I guess I could rive myself to work in a tank, but the ride would be terrible, it would be slow, and it would use a large amount of fuel. Maybe I wouldn't care if I only lived 3 blocks from work, but that doesn't make it a good idea.
Maybe when hardware catches up, Vista won't be bad, but maybe it is WinME all over again, and we just need to wait for the next release.
