This creates more questions for me.
I had originally planned to go to Vista at some time. Because of all
the bad press I see about Vista I am now hesitant to do so, at least
anyways soon.
Am I correct that there is a 32 bit and a 64 bit version of Vista?
If so and I eventually go to a 64 bit version can it use 8 GB of RAM?
I don't know that much about Vista. I was told early on that there was
no advantage unless you ugrade all your current programs to be able to
use Vista.
The horror stories I have recently heard is there are all kinds of
other things besides programs that may need to be changed to be
compatible with Vista?
