Or don't buy an OS at all. There are a number of vendors out there that sell OEM notebooks without OSs. I picked up a Compal IF90 with
WSXGA+ (1680x1050) for a good price.

Hi All,
I am about to buy a laptop and find that the XP is twice the price of
Vista. Does anyone have positive experience using Vista for
crystallographic packages: CCP4, Coot, O, X-plor?  or must I still
avoid it?


Thanks,


Deena
