| 607107 | 2007-10-31 20:52:00 | Seen an old computer with Celeron 1.0 GHZ, 512 MB of RAM, early this morning. When turning ON, it loads Vista! The owner upgraded from Win98 and it's running fine, of course, sloooow. I was helping her to put in a NIC for her new broadband Internet. She actually wanted to buy XP but the computer shop pushed Vista to her and she accepted it. Amazingly, she installed the OS (Vista) herself. Who says Windows Vista cannot run on older machines???? :D |

| 607115 | 2007-11-01 00:03:00 | From what I've heard, Vista can run on lower spec machines - it's the eye candy that slows things down the most. | Deane F (8204) | ||
