64-bit CPU + 2GBs of DDR2 and a good GPU are cool too....Vista won't go mainstream like windows xp did becuase not everybody will meet enough hardware requirments to run it and look like that.

Does linux have better harware compatibility than Vista? Im not too hot on Vista anyway, or Longhorn for that matter.

Compatability... probebly not, but I'm not even sure becuase Vista's requirnments are pretty crazy and better than 95% of people's computers at the moment. However with the current hardware and older hardware Linux will run fine and perform tasks, while everybody will have to get new computers to actually get things done using Vista.

By the way (As far as I know), Longhorn is the "Codname" for Vista.

If you include legacy hardware, I suspect it does.
