It can, and my Dad's willing to pay for it. I'm not sure whether I should get it now, or wait until I can get a completely new computer. Next year I'll be studying IST at school, so I'll probably need a fast running computer for that. Thoughts?

Your not gaining/losing anything by waiting and keeping XP. classicalandrew Posted at 6:33 pm on Oct. 11, 2008 yoiu should probs get new computer...whats so good about vista that you want to get it for your current pc?

The only problem was that there's not enough room on my C drive. It said that I can alternatively use the D drive though. Back up your data on the smaller drive, install on the bigger drive. But like I said, unless you have a dedicated video card, decent processor, and 1.5-2gb RAM, then you might as well wait. You wont get any of the effects. espresso8097 Posted at 6:26 pm on Oct. 11, 2008 If you will be needing a new computer sometime soon just keep what you have.   Vista is decent on a decent PC, not as bad as many make it seem.  But, wait if you will be getting something new soon.

Define Your Line Posted at 6:23 pm on Oct. 11, 2008 Personally, I don't like Windows Vista.  There are so many bugs with it still.  Stick with XP, if you want my opinion.
