I agree with the original poster. Sure it depends what you run, but
that was the case with XP also. Generally speaking 2 GB is a nice
number for Vista. Go look at Dell's web site..........." 2GB Dell
Recommended for an enhanced Windows Vista experience".

no idea as to what he's talking about.

There is more then one version of Vista. They have different
requirements.
So there is no blanket statement as to what "Vista" requires.

I have a few Vista machines running on 1GB and the OS itself runs no
better
then my 4GB machine. To determine "IF" you need more memory you first
need
to evaluate the apps you'll be using. So again, there is no blanket
statement as to what "Vista" requires.

Therefore, the blanket statement that a person is stupid or ignorant if
they
buy a machine with less the 2GB is just plain ridiculous and only further
proves what kind of imbecile this guy is.

Any serious user should realize he needs TWO GB of RAM in order to run
Vista
and have room for future developments over the life of the computer.

Only a rather ignorant and stupid person would buy a box with less than
TWO
GB of RAM.

It's rather shameful how some of the more knowledgeable people here are
buying TWO Gigs of RAM for THEMSELVES -- while recommending ONE Gig as
sufficient for the needs of others.

I personally plan to have FOUR Gigs of RAM, at a minimum -- when I buy
Vienna.
