Fortunately I'm not due to upgrade my desktop box until next year at the earliest, but I wouldn't like to go with Vista for while yet, unless on a dual boot setup at least until their service pack release. Still a lot of software that is not Vista compatable out there, though it shouldn't be...

I also wasn't aware that Pentium D's were dual core, although, there are so many variants I wouldn't want to stake my life on that. One last thing I would say from his advert, he says the RAM is 2Gig, which he interprets in another quote as 2000Meg since there is 1024 meg per gig that would be...
