I upgraded my HP nc8430 laptop from 1gb of RAM to 2gb today because Vista performance was just killing me. 

I didn’t believe 1gb of RAM would make that big of a difference – BOY WAS I WRONG!

Vista is no longer a hinderance to me – its fast and snappy.   YEAH!!!

I had already turned off all the “extras” like Aero, Defender, etc to try to make 1gb work.

What a difference 1gb of extra RAM makes…
