RAM For Vista & Vienna -- "Upgrading" From XP

Wow! The funny part is, in more then one case (link) adam albright was
right there with him.

This is finally starting to make sense! (to me anyway)

Thanks winston!

"Generally speaking" statements are generally meaningless. How much RAM you
need for good performance with Windows Vista, depends, just as it did with
Windows XP, on what apps you are running. Not everyone needs 2GB by a long
shot.



Bull****.......90% of the PC purchasers need guidelines aka "generally
speaking" dumbass.

My experience has been that our office machines running primarily
office 2007 apps saw a big speed improvement and less hang ups when
going from 1gb to 2gb of RAM. Sure you can run Vista on 1gb, just
don't open too many windows or plan on waiting awhile.

How do you define "Any serious user"?
Convenient for you how you use this vague term.

Why is it necessary to have the memory now that MAY be needed in the
future "for future developments over the life of the computer"
What is wrong with waiting until the need is nearer rather than
spending now only to possibly replace the computer before the actual
need arises?

"ignorant and stupid person"
Interesting your need to stereotype those with a different opinion
than yours.

As is obvious by other posts less than 2 GB is sufficient for some.

One size fits all is usually wrong since it ignores the requirements
of many.
Your post clearly fits.

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.

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 and expect to use VISTA on it over the next three years.

If one only has two RAM slots and they are filled with 512 MB RAM modules it
is going to mean they will be discarded in order to go to 2 GB or 4 GB of
RAM in the future, as requirements increase and limitations bind.

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 other allegedly "less sophisticated" users with
"fewer needs" who "only surf the Web and read/send emails."

Hilarious!

In fact it is a disingenuous, duplicitous scam on their part.

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

'Nuff Said.

Nobody listens to a troll which is all you are. I prefer to totally
ignore the drivel you post since you have demonstrated over and over
you don't have a clue. Enough said.
