If it comes with Vista on it, fscking reformat that mess and put xp on it instead, or if you're up for it some sort of nix. You could even dualboot. AFAICT there is NO advantage to using Vista - it'll slow you down and crash more, not to mention the uissues with drm and "trusted computing" which have potential for horrific anti-functionality consequences. It's a huge step backwards. The only possible reason to use it is for DirectX 10, which nothing currently uses - and sooner or later that'll probably be adapted to run on older versions anyhow.
