VISTA isn't slow if you are running the right processor and an

You really shouldn't need a state-of-the-art, multi-core, multi
processor, 2 Gig PC just to support the operating system, although I
have to admit that IBM has frequently moved in that direction. Today's
VISTA compatible PCs have more hardware resources available to them
than a corporate mainframe computer 15 years ago. To do what? Browse
the web, type EMAILs, run spreadsheets, play music....
Ridiculous.
"640k of memory should be enough for anybody"

Old Wayne sounds like those losing control IT managers of the mid
1980s who were terrified by PCs because they meant that users could
kind of do things their way instead of his way.
You haven't got a clue about being an IT manager.
