I had a PC made from spares, a Northwood 3,0Ghz, Albatron 865Pro M/B, 1GB of cheap RAM, an nVidia FX5600XT 256MB, my Nexus modded Fortron PSU, a used P180, WD250 HDD. I decided to install Vista in it. I downloaded RC1, installed it, and it was the fastest and easiest installation ever. All the drivers were there, Aero is working perfectly. AVG needs permission every time I boot, but it's not digitally signed yet. I'm currently using it as my main browsing machine, and it's fast and perfectly stable. Eye candy is high, and I'm VERY impressed by the network speed. In XP, opening Network Places takes a lot of time, finding new machines takes forever and (possibly) a restart. In Vista it's FAST and reliable.
