Re: Major laptop problem
That's certainly true to some extent, however Microsoft isn't completely innocent in this matter either - just google "Vista capable class action lawsuit" for example. Mind you that was a combination of Microsoft screwing around and system builders sucking up and letting them.

With the right hardware, which clearly both of us had, Vista can run like a champ. However Windows 7 demonstrated that had MS put their mind to it, they could have made it run pretty well on lesser hardware too. Mind you, SP1 and SP2 did also improve things a great deal, far more than Windows 7 SP1 does anyway.
