Hi All,
I am about to buy a laptop and find that the XP
I am sure Vista is probably just as good (or bad, depending on your
point of view) as XP. Most of this stuff should run just fine (I
understand that Vista is probably loaded with features that will bring
older computer to complete stop, but we are talking about brand new
laptop here). But let

OS X wins for me, followed by various flavours of Linux, and then - only
then - a windows box (not running Vista).

If you are going to run windows, have to use XP. I tried vista, and the

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

My Understanding is that XP is twice the price for a reason--Vista has
been considered a major downgrade. It seems that SP1 has not helped.
Of course, there are other options out there besides windows boxes, so
you might also want to investigate those (OS X, Linux). Some of

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?
