Vista takes powerful hardwares to run, there's no way around it. I would say it takes a quad core to run it smoothly. I know a lot of people will say they have good experience with Vista on a dual core, but a lot more people report performance problems with Vista on dual core. But on the other hand I think some of the Vista features are too ahead of it's time, the (mainstreme) hardware haven't caught up to it yet. But the main reason I'm not using it is that it requires driver signing, that's just bs. I hope they will fix this mistake in Windows 7. Otherwise I'll probably stick with XP as my main desktop and just dual boot play games on Win 7.
