The cost is for a single home user, non business. I have a laptop and meet all the system requirements.

please double check the latest reports on the upgrade requirements! Testors report that the Vista actually needs 2GB of RAM to function, plus 20Gb of hard drive for the system.
I would run http://pclinuxos.com on any current hardware, as it runs upto 50X faster than WinXP Pro (in all the benchmark tests!).
As a computer engineer, I can see no possible reason to have that big a system for email and a few games, and some database uses, and would only get Vista if I were to purchase an new computer that was guaranteed to run with Vista.
Still, the bench marks and the field reports from 'experts' flunk Vista!
Even Microsoft run all 45,000 computers for Hotmail, MSN, and MS.com on Linux!
