XP wasn't complete until SP2. That was the "real" XP. So expect the working Vista to be released around 2010Preferred User said:And if you're like me, all this "complicated" talk makes me pretty nervous it will be buggy.

mindido said:So, does anyone "really" think Vista is going to run with this (MS minimum PC):
A Windows Vista Capable PC includes at least:
* A modern processor (at least 800MHz1).
* 512 MB of system memory.
* A graphics processor that is DirectX 9 capable.
800 MHz? 512 RAM? They've got to be kidding. XP barely runs with that.
Preferred User said:I'd say that's the biggest lie since "the unsurgency is in it's last throes." Straight from Microsoft's web site is their minimum for XP Service Pack 2:
To install the service pack, your computer must have a CD-ROM drive or Internet connection and meet the following minimum requirements:
• 233 megahertz (MHz) processor
• 64 megabytes (MB) of RAM
• 1.8 GB of available hard disk space during installation
