Win 7 or XP?

I finally ponied up the dough for a new laptop and it'll have 7 on it. I was gonna do this a year or two ago but the horror stories about Vista put the kibosh on that. The IT guys at work say one of Vistas biggest problems was that it was a memory hog and that 7 is much, much better in that regard.

Considering my existing computer is a $75 used-from-a-local-community-college machine with a whopping 384KB RAM (new one has 4GB), this should be quite an upgrade.

I hope you meant 384MB of ram, otherwise that IS an old computer, I would bet from late 1980's or so.

Ooops, yes MB. I think my Gateway from '92 had more than 384KB.
