I think all is good for the specs, but one. I have heard alot of bad things about vista. The Wal-Mart near where I live have slashed the prices dramatically since they have sold vista computers. I believe it is to early to buy the windows vista as there is alot of bugs in the programing. Try to find or build a computer and use XP as this is already stable and you wont have as many headaches with this version.Urgent help with laptop !! =]?
not too bad for what you want to do. Upgrade the ram as high as you can afford..good luck R.
