In the market for a notebook - heaps of stuff around - but have been told that a notebook with less than 2Gig of Ram is about as much use as (something to do with bulls not being cows)
Is this true - what was wrong with Dos 6.0 ?
By the way when I was a little younger VISTA was the Hymn Book we used in Mass - I'm getting the sneaking suspicion that Gates Inc have borrowed a theme from the Catholic Church

Ya 2Gig of ram min... Vista on it's own, with nothing running will take about 700meg of ram. You should also look for a decent ammount of hard disk space as the new service pack due out for Vista is bigger than the base OS.
if you want to use vista get a 64bit processor dual core or somthing of the like otherwise its as slow as the second comming.

What would you recommend as a min Hard Disk size - 80/100

I have Vista just because I got a new laptop and it comes packaged with it, but there are no drivers for my old HP OfficeJet, so now I need a new fecking printer as well.
Anyhoo, have 1GB of RAM and its fine. Am not running any major graphics or games, though. Would go the extra gig if you're planning on hammering it.

Dual processor definitely - separate graphics processor is the way to go.

Def go for 2gig of ram if running any graphic or game progs and with vista that should do as well. Hard disk at least 100, enough room then for photos of the Force!LOL!!!! This usually adds to the price to up grade to these specks.
