So far so good.
I have been working on it and installed some diffrent stuff.
I did all M$ updates prior to installing anything else.
Just fine, some hickups I had with the wireless but there was an updated driver and now all is ok.
I never thought that I would say that about a new M$ software.
I like the looks and layout of Vista ....
I'll keep you posted.

Yeah.
Depends what you need it for at work.
If only for e-mail surfing and some Officesuite related work, buy it.
If u intend to do some cad work and stuff, find a version with more CPU and bigger monitor.
Love the monitor, crystal clear.

I realise that I have a past to break with--an accumulation of inertia, wrong, foolishness, rot, junk. A great need of clarification, of mindfulness, or rather, of no mind. A need to return to genuine practice, right effort. Need to push on the great doubt. Need for the spirit. Hang on to the clear light.

The one we have been talking about here.
Or if you want something less heavy (This one is 2,6 kg) ...
Look on a HP Compaq 2510p Notebook if you want to have a low weight one ... only 2.8lbs
