what's great about it:?after all the stories i've heard about vista os, i rather enjoy it...something different (a little jazzy) what's not so great:?noticed while watching videos online it hangs.

vista basic takes up about 700 mb of ram at startup, so you still have way over 1gb for programs, hard to fill up in every day usage (unless you surf, photoshop and watch videos at the same time :).
