running it with 1 gig of memory no problem
i'm going from xp, the extra eye candy and new features don't impress me much, in fact many of the new features i've had for years already in XP from downloading different software such as Firefox and exif viewer but now they are built into windows 7
i do find myself using it though, kinda fun to use, dunno how long my curiousity will last though. My wireless card didn't work (the most rated wireless card from newegg) so i had to find a cd with drivers for it and my creative sound blaster x-fi audio card didn't work either yet but i got it working using vista compatability mode.
trying to get my dual crt's to work on it now. Also, when i get a dialog box the box has artifacts and is unreadable, so it was hard to install and if i get any messages from the system i can't read them and just try to find where to click "ok" or "next" and guess at what they want me to input.
