Actually vista runs ok on this.. 2GB ram.. 7300LE 256 vid card. Pulls in a 3.5 min score on the index IIRC.. Boots in a normal amount of time (and vista hibernates instead of boots better). Dont play games or crunch video files.. Web browsing and music playing seems overkill to junk it and much prefer vista over XP personally.

Even wondered about a readyboost stick but my 2GB thumbdrive isnt readyboost speed (despite saying online it is) and dont know how much difference that would make anyway.

The only thing it doesnt do that I would like it play hidef files but as yesterdays dashboard update lets the xbox now play divx/xvid hidef files even that last job is now done.

There is a vista driver for the realtek 650 onboard chip.. Just seems to have mic issues for me. Hence I want a USB soundcard / skype phone !!

So back to 'if anyone sees one on Phuket let me know'..
