holy ****
i just upgraded my laptop and got 256mb more ram, and it'll actually be LESS available in vista after the upgrade than in xp BEFORE the upgrade?

btw. now that we're talking about vista, how can you uninstall it. My da' went and installed a... uh... legal... copy of vista and wants to uninstall it, because he learned the hard way it was crap just like i've tried to tell him the past year. However that doesn't seem to be possible... damned microsoft trying to enforce your software now too?
