The silent majority are nominally first time owners with
more recent equipment, the rest are usually gaming fans.

ah..then you don't know about the integrated virtual desktop,
perhaps needing more ram before it kicks in and gives speeds
roughly equivalent to XP..when it should run like lightning.
On a modified hand made Vista applications pop up and run
