Vista just stinks period! I hate that OS. My wife's laptop has Vista.., my PC is using XP. I'll take XP over Vista in a heartbeat.
Another thing I noticed is Vista is like freakin updating every 60 seconds! Scan this, run that... The Vista OS with all it's various programs really dogs your RAM.
Also I don't know what you guys are using for Anti-Virus, but Norton will destroy your RAM. The current Norton program IS NOT CPU friendly... Norton slows my PC down all the time. I've got over a gig of RAM on my PC, and I swear you can hear the CPU panting at times.
