You'll need to magnify this, as it is a big (pixel-wise) image.

Don't worry about that, the updates and service packs should top it up nicely, there may be a spare corner for your applications and data if you are quick. ;)

530905 2007-03-07 06:46:00 You sound like my grandparents.

They just got Vista on their new Dell laptop, have no idea that 512MB Ram isnt enough for it, and waiting 3-4 seconds each time for the start menu to appear is NOT how things are supposed to be.

Sure, all they're going to use is email and the occasional little bit of word processing, so if they wait a few extra seconds for Word to open they wont mind, but its the principal that matters :p
