    Personally, I'd uninstall Vista if you want to make your laptop faster. That's the first thing I did when I purchased my laptop. Actually, I tried it with Vista for a few days and then loaded XP Pro after I couldn't stand putting up with a brand new laptop that's slow. Of course, this requires that you have access to the media and that your model of laptop has drivers for XP.

    Could you give us a list? A screenshot is fine... then we can tell you what you probably will and won't need.

    Is this even possible yet the OS is only 1 year old and I don't think they would do this.
