I posed the question of the concerns posted here in a computer forum.
Here
is one of the responses I received from what I would judge to be one of
the
experts in the forum on computers

I had a new desktop built in February loaded with Vista. It's wonderful
and
I am delighted with it.

Every time MS brings out new software the prophets of doom and gloom come
out of their comfort zone and start whining. The people who condemn Vista
today are the same people who tomorrow will enjoy Vista and will have
forgotten their reluctance to change. It's no different to the same
arguments made when changing from Windows 95 to 98 and then to XP all over
again.

The main protagonists seem to be conservative and frugal home and small
business users who cannot easily afford the hardware required and large
commercial organizations where such a major change would eat into their
mega
profits.

Take no notice and enjoy it.


JimH,

I have to throw in the towel, when you provide irrefutable proof like
this what can I say. It is obvious Vista is a supreme OS, that will not
slow down your machine and will not cause any problems. That probably
is why MS is in no hurry to release their SP1 update.

Are you going to follow Harry's advice and add an additional 2 GB of RAM?
