I just bought a new laptop a week ago. I got an HP Pavilion with an AMD 64X2 mobile technology processor, dual core. 2.10 ghz, 64 bit operating system, 4 GB memory, Windows VISTA home premieum.
I haven't found any problems with VISTA itself, but some of my older software will not load onto it. You can still get XP on new laptops in the business class machines, but these computers have far less memory on them. I chose this one because I wanted to get the fastest computer with the most memory and largest hard drive I could get for no more than a thousand dollars, and this fit the bill. The only problem I have is the UPS software will not work with 64 bit. Every other VISTA program or XP programs I have works fine, so I don't know what UPS's problem is.
