You obviously do not know much about computers, do you? The majority of people that hated Vista didn't just hate it because they "couldn't run it", they hated it because IT WAS SLOW! I have a computer that I have spent thousands of dollars on getting new upgrades, and it was running super fast until I installed Vista on it, and then it started running as slow as a snail. Vista was terrible, so stop trying to defend it by blaming all its problems on the computer itself.
