    I just spent 4k on a vista box. I figure if I am going to use it, I am really [b/]going to use it[/b]. The trend was smaller PCs.... this thing reverses that trend. It is bigger than any PC I have EVER owned. Even bigger than my old XT and 286. Bigger even then a VAX I had and an old Digital.

    I have reactivated XP about a hundred times. Never an issue. Don't worry about it. If Vista isn't worth the money for hardware. Don't use it. XP will be around for a long time and directx 10 won't hit mainstream for another year. I would advice the dual boot option so you can use XP if necessary. I had systems crashing with XP SP2 let alone a whole new and radical platform.

    You are standing in an open field west of a white house, with a boarded front door.
    There is a small mailbox here.
