--- Quote from: Orethrius ---Okay, by that logic, I could put $5,000 worth of hardware into my 450 MHz P3's box and say that I'm running Vista Ultimate Edition flawlessly on an eight-year-old system. I'm sorry, but I call bullshit.

First of all, I never said "ultimate edition". Ultimate edtion comes with all kinds of medi features, which you wouldn't want to even think about using on a five year old box, regardless of the OS.
Second of all, all that would be needed on that example Dell box posted earlier would be a RAM upgrade, which would cost around $60. Not $5000.
With a proper amount of RAM vista sans the aero eye-candy would run fine.

Uhhh. Yeah. I didn't mention it because I though it would be obvious, but I guess the obvious isn't so obvious to folks around here. :nothappy:

Well Aero must be one bloated piece of shit considering Xgl runs dreamy (by that I mean: no obvious performance difference) on my Athlon XP 2600+, 256 MB RAM, radeon 9600
