I’m Not So Sure I like Vista
Yeah, well, the last few days it’s been a pain in the arse. I’ll see what it’s like when I fit my nice extra RAM chip, but right now, it’s being laggy whenever there are any mildly heavy programmes open, and coming out of hibernation, it comes out, then goes to sleep again, and I have to wait all of 5 minutes for that, and then another 2 for it to wake up. I am not pleased with it at all.
The laptop itself is great, Vista really lets it down though. I may consider blanking it and replacing it with XP, but then I lose the Lenovo suite = not good.
But, for the moment, it’s being a bit of a pain, and I don’t like that.
We’ll see.

Hm, on second glances, it could have been the programmes in the background, or it backing up or something..
I’ve heard many ppl “downgrading” to XP. Me I didn’t even tried Vista but will all the bad reviews I am not sure if I am going to try it very soon.
I’ve got the new RAM in now, and I’m happy with it :)
[...] my laptop, and it’s sped up. It’s not crashing anything like as much, and most of the things that annoyed me are gone, so all is good, for now. Even Windows Media Player is working alright [...]
