wow.
you really need another 1.5 gigs of ram.
your virtual memory is doing overtime . . . |

I have no issues what-so-ever. I have a dual core and a nice setup.
My PC is rated as a 5.4 on their 'experience' meter... so I assume that is why?
SATA1 or 2 drives, high speed ram and a beefy gfx card make for a seamless experience IMO. |

I've seen Vista to be quite a hog on many systems. What are your system specs? |

vista is definitely buggy, it will be until SP1 and beyond . . .
tried to get my M1710 with XP pro, but i was a week late. :whip: |

Are you serious?
I have Dual Core and Vista is faster performance-wise than XP. |

i am comparing apples to oranges, so it may be a little skewed.
vista ultimate on M1710 core2duo 2.33GHz, 2G ram, 945MB, 160G sata 3.0 HD, 7950 go VC.
xp pro on desktop build, amd 2.0GHz, 1G ram, a8v-e deluxe MB, 240G sata 1.5 HD (set at), 6800gt VC.
in some ways the performance seems very similar.
considering the vast difference in tech specs,
i blame it on vista. . .
tell me of your experience. |

On a side note, MS has announced Vista SP1 (beta) for November 12th.
Still haven't tried Vista yet, as I'm still stuck with my 800 MHz calculator. Can't report on buggyness / etc. |

| Vista does more harm than good. Wait another year - at least. |
