Greetings!

Wondering if I can stretch my AXP 2,4Ghz, 1GB, 9800Pro till Vista is available... Think

"Word coming from Redmond suggests the retail price of Vista will hit the shelves at just $99, with OEM versions expected to be a little over half that."

What utter crap. They do this everytime to drum up some pre-OS hardware sales.

Will work best with a 256Mb card. Hmm I know as soon as I get Vista it will be -

Right click / Properties / Appearance / Windows Classic /Apply

Millions of man hours and millions of dollars of development gone in a mouse click.

heh.

Right now I only have 1 PC that runs windows regularly for games. By the time Vista comes out I may even ween myself from that.

""The downside is that all your existing flat panel monitors and projectors aren't going to work with high-def videos in Vista. Bad news.""

MS releases vista requiring 256MB video card and a new flat panel monitor to do normal day to day things, all they hear will be the chirping of crickets.

I'll be nabbing it, but until I have proof $99 is just rumormongering crap.
