If a noob bought a laptop and it ran like ass, how would they have the qualifications to know what is required for vista? I have used a core 2 duo laptop with 512 megs with vista basic and it really did take 10 mins to boot, and IE was such a pig to load as well. It is CRIMINAL that such low specced systems were sold with vista on them so that extra hardware purchases are REQUIRED just to make use of what you bought.
It's funny. Laugh.

You will have to really hit Technorati to see more of what I'm talking about, but Feisty is as buggy as the beta I tested a short time ago. After completely tossing into the wilds of the ubber-buggy "network-manager," anything running with Edgy supported RT2500 driver shows up, but it will not connect without a special script. Those of you who are on Feisty and need help with your RT2500 cards are welcome to e-mail me for the bash script."
